The Doom Room: ILF Edition

[Iommic Pope]

You guys are not helping.

In that you are helping, but I really shouldn't spend money, but ah fuck it, IF IT IS COOL, THEN WHY THE FUCK NOT?!

Twisting my arm here.

Don't have active pickups. I really don't like them.
And I have one pedal with a buffer now, that I never really use, as its an old boss weirdo chorus from the 80s, and it usually goes last in the chain.

I might PM sergio when I'm done and dusted with this assignment tomorrow. Try and come to some sort of poor man's arrangement.
In that I am the poor man in this arrangement.

If anyone wants to make my mind up for me and swoop it for themselves, go nuts. It will help me to behave in a fiscal manner appropriate of my station.
Fucking GAS.
Fucking rad pedals every time I click on "view new posts".

Hey Pope...what guitar are you playing now? did you sell the iceman?

[AngryGoldfish]

Anyone have any ideas for shipping a 2x12 cabinet when you can't find a box that's the right size?

[D.o.S.]

Look harder for a box that fits?


(sorry that's not helpful at all I have no idea)

[AngryGoldfish]

Any ideas where particular shops might have something that size? I might try a furniture shop or something.

[D.o.S.]

You could ring Matamp (it's a Matamp cab, right?) and see what they suggest.

[AngryGoldfish]

Yeah, I was thinking that as well. Might give 'em a tinkle.

[conky]

Find bigger boxes and cut them down. I did that with my 2x12 when I sold it. I actually did this with about 10 layers of boxes and it worked great. Arrived with only the scratches that were on it before I boxed it up. Took 4 rolls of box tape though.

[samzadgan]

If you cant find the right size box, then heaps of bubble wrap and then wrap in cardboard and a lot of tape...

[AngryGoldfish]

That's another option. We recycle a lot and have a great deal of cardboard lying around. I could make a box and seal it together with enormous amounts of tape.

I have done this numerous times for bigger items. With a proper amount of bubble wrap itll be just fine.

[AngryGoldfish]

Sweet! Thanks, lads. Might finally be able to shift the Matamp. If I lived in Dublin I would have sold it a thousand times over.

Corey the test presses sound so good. Vinyl makes it sound like we should sound. You did an amazing job my friend. If you want to hear it I can bring it over sometime.

I preordered a copy of the gold and black, just because I want to have it. I would love to hear it ahead of time though. I need to find a way to hook up my record player to my studio monitors. I need a new turntable setup, mine sucks and only has little built in speakers, but you know...$$$$$$.

Everyone should buy this album, because it kills. I'm not all biased by recording and mixing it.

Do you own or get a share of the mechanical royalties?

Nah, it was just a pay by the hour fee for recording and mixing. I don't believe in taking royalties for recording and I know how hard it is just to break even with being a band at this level and self releasing vinyl.

Did you put an add on fretboard? I think there was a guy looking for a matamp 2x12

I'm the same way when it comes to recording mixing. I will even work for weed and beer. I learned all about the different royalty categories and music copyright law when I did a music Diploma course. I don't think its right to take money after you have already been paid for the sessions. And producer contracts are even more of a scam I think. I don't give a fuck if you're George Fucking Martin. I wouldn't sign one.
