big fat japan
« on: January 08, 2008, 10:14:37 am »
big fat japan happily plays thru a sunn studio pa head into a guild 2x15. that's the guitar track on the songs, bass wise is a traynor yba-1 thru a sunn 2x15. live is different. double the bass setup and guitar is also a guild thunderstar bass head into a guild 1x15. i plan on switching out the guild head and cab for another sunn head and cab of sorts. though maybe a hiwatt. we'll see. check it out. you can see the sunns in the pics too. thanks.

Can't see this because I'm at work now and myspace is blocked, but I just picked up a Concert bass, and have 2 Emperor 2x15s. Here's a picture of my most recent buys:

bet that sounds huge. our bassist just switched out the traynor and sunn cabs for a v4 w/ 2 matching ampeg 4x12's. i still think the concert bass thru the emperor sounds WAY better.

omg does it distort! it sounds massive. i ran it into my bassists two ampeg 4x12's and my studio pa head into my 2x15. let's just say it is a wall of sound. i jumpered the channels on the coliseum. it def has enough gain without doing that, but i did it anyway, just to see. hahaha. the studio pa with the winged c 6550's has all my midrange, and the coliseum with original kt88's fills out the bottom and gives a bit more top end. very full tone. can't wait for our show friday!
