just playing around, your my A#1 Maine doom room boy

I'm inclined to think a fair number of doomers here are more of a CBD-fueled type.

This Pig Destroyer Doom EP is the first time I ever liked Pig Destroyer! It's not blowing me out of the water Come My Fanatics style or anything but at least I can now say I appreciate something they've done. Which is cool because Pig Destroyer is one of the greatest names ever conceived and I always wanted to be able to say that a band called Pig Destroyer was awesome.

We've been wanting to tour internationally since day one. I'd like to think this means that but I'm the only guy in the band with a fucking passport so...

LOL. I am ready with mine. But, badges? We don't need no stinking badges! You need to schedule a band outing. Pick everyone up, stop at Kinkos for picture time, tell em it's for a flyer. Then swing by the King County court house for paperwork time. Make sure they have their checkbook. Presto, Blamm-o! Done!

We're playing at The EARL in ATL on Saturday night. Love to see you dudes there.

My new Carvin bass finally arrived. Setup for BEAD tuning, stainless steel frets. Jury is out on whether I want to swap out the pickup for a Dimarzio Model P, that's my usual jam. Nice and light and feels great to play. My crappy camera phone skills totally obliterate the nice figuring in the grain on the maple fretboard.

I present The Holy Mountain.

That looks pretty damned slick man.

nice bass corey...i've heard nothing but great things about Carvin!

I'm really struggling to keep myself from buying this now...i just need to get a quote for shipping shit back to Oz next year, if its not too expensive i'm gonna get them...and the wife is cool with it...it's almost like they were meant for me...the guy is about 10mins drive from me, and has had no bids because he lives in central london and no one in central london would buy this shit because flats are too small and the volume would be way too much.

what do you guys think?

Do it.

does it matter that those cabs are only 25cm deep? they are old PA speakers

Yeah they're definitely part of a PA array. As long as you're not looking for, you know, SUPERBASS they should be rad.

Assuming they work and aren't brutally expensive.

JFET, FET, or BJT?

JFET my man - out of all the solutions I tried, the JFETs were the best… there are a few major tweaks and what not but it really captures that orange/matamp sound even at lower gain settings. Super versatile and stacks like tetris.

Orange cabs are 380mm deep (I'm building a full stack at the moment so I know the dimensions off the top of my head).
It may affect bass response a lot but it also might sound really great coupled with another cab?
I would pass only because I know there would be something better around the corner… ya know?

I built a JFET based Matamp a while back. I did like it but the scarceness and the tolerance problems with JFETs eventually resulted in using FETs instead for consistency and price reasons.

I bought it on vinyl (got the super limited green splatter just cause it looks amazing). It is good, but it is nowhere near as good as Natasha.

Corey that bass looks killer. I would love it if Carvin did guitar headstocks in that style.
