I ear ya!

I just got my Solarus 80w all re-tubed with JJ's KT-88 and recap...man this thing is loud and clean!
It can barely be use with the volume at 3 or 4 because it would mute the rest of the band just on clean...so with the dirt...forget it!
If the T is a double dose of that, I can see your band mate have loads of amps and cabs and a big drum to compete...haha.
The drive of that amp is what I lack in my older Sunn era but I like dirt pedal. If you ever get to record a sample of that I would love to ear it. or even with your fav dirt pedal...just need the tone..hehe

In my band I'm the only string for now so I use a Sonaro bass kit also...later it could be use by a bassist...I have a 2nd Solarus on standby for a complete tune-up to be use for my stereo fx...this one will definitly need a 412 or 612...later.

Luckily, my other guitarist uses a organge cabs and a 300T head, and my bassist has a crazy carvin set up.  So, volume isnt an issue!  we are in the studio now, so I will record some sound clips and figure out how to post em here for you to check out. The OxFuzz pedal is the best fuzz I have used.  And I have a ton of fuzzes!  With the Model T and the KT88's, it sounds like a demon growling. F@ckin amazing.

I use soundclick.com, it's pretty easy for uploads, and you can embed the soundclick player in your myspace and everywhere so you just have one player to update.

Oh yeah I love Fuzz too, but I'm waiting my BYOC Mighty Mouse( a 6 mod Rat Distorsion/Overdrive...) to come in...that will be mate with my Bass Big Muff that growls like mad on the Sonaro 2x15! can wait to ear that.

Nice! I wish I could find a bassman with a sunn rig who would like to play in a stoner sludge band...

I'm searching for a new drummer in Montreal by the way...!

I'm a true EHX and Sunn junky!

Hahaha, I wish I was able to go as DOOM as I'd really want to but the other two guys in my band help keep everything at a much quicker pace and I guess keep me from getting too far lost, haha. But hardly any of the parts I write ever end up getting used, maybe we can be in a border-crossing/tape-trading band.

that's why it's hard to find a drummer who wish to go as minimalist as doom music...

it's all in the intensity not complexity, I'm doing midi and home recording for now, I might have some stuff to exchange later...

maybe we should start another thread on that...doom on!
