Hi all!

I reconfigured my setup lately and my pedal board too with the ABC switch so I tought I could post the updated pics:

I've swap the Solarus going into the 2x15 with the Sonaro to get my bass tone, much better with the extra low end coming from the SFT!

And the Solarus into the two 1x15", it has a bit less low end so they work better, I think they're due for a speaker change because they're original and definitly not used to take extreme dirt...I might get 2 more Emi Big Ben because after A/B testing everything, they're excellent and keep getting better with the break-in...!



and here's what's feeding them, redid the all board to get it more usable in live scenario...either band or droning...



Enjoy!

Here is the set up we used for a show the other day, I took this picture before we set up the drums.


from left to right (then top to bottom):
sunn 215
sunn beta bass
earth producer
earth 412
sunn 215
peavey 5150
peavey 412
mesa 412
stonecutter 100w plexi
emperor 412
ampeg 810

I traded one of my beta bass heads for the earth head and cabinet. I recently bought a beta lead and footswitch (seperately). The head needs a little work so once it's fixed it will probably replace the 5150.

YOU'LL NEVER SELL THAT STUDIO BASS, CLD!

That was the last thing I said before putting my foot in my mouth.

REALLY stoked to go get my Concert Bass this weekend and take it back up with me to my place in SF. Picked up a 215B for it and I have my Concert Lead and a nice Marshall cab to go with it. Pics soon.

Snarzdar, nice. You should find a way to stack everything neatly, then your already beastly rig would be a beastly wall.

yeah, I still can't get a drummer that enjoy listening and playing some straight minimalist sludge doom...always too metal, death or black... :x

so to accomodate, I'm playing some death doom or trash sludge...

but it's still too much palm muting and rhythm for him:? I'm in drop A with a baritone for a reason! I'm not going back to standard tuning quitar, no thanks!

I might have to move then...haha, my gf won't... :roll:

thanks for offering! :wink:

I can't wait to get out there and show how Sunn's can melt faces...but it's not my band priority...we have to release 1st...I think I'm the most enthousiast about getting out there...I need to either calmdown and wait or get into another project! I'm pumped and all geared up now! :evil:

You can always record your own stuff. Before we took our band too seriously and decided to get a real drummer and play live we did tracking in garage band and made drums in reason. Those are the demos we put on our myspace. I think the fake drums sound good (for fake drums). We are actually getting our act together and recording in an actual studio in about a month. (actually we are recording an EP and our sides for a split 7 inch and a split 12 inch in one day.

WORKER BEES!

looking forward into those recordings...! :-D

yeah at least I have Logic Express for recording and song writing...EZ Drummer DKFH using the vintage kit & Logic Amp Designer are pretty awesome!

here's how my last one sound...software only.

It's good to have a way to store my inspirations somewhere...! 8-)

I don't actually use this, but I figured it's time I take a picture of my Concert Bass and 215B together. But soon I'll take a picture of my band's whole new setup.
