btw here's a preview of my next project – which i'm not starting until i finish the green guitar, but still – i present to you, the black ibanez bass:

VERY cool dude
 
But it COULD be correct

Say he was listening to a Colour Haze song. "Yea, mighty bass fuzz!" would be an acceptable--and fitting--proclamation

(i.o.w. NAD knows what he's doing)
 
i kind of bought this

been wanting a reverb pedal for a while, and i had a gift card, so

it does this pretty shimmer reverb thing with overtones (insta-slowdive)


edIT: oh fuck it draws 128 mA of current. that's hungry as shit
 
I always call those Hooer pedals because that's funny.

Godlyke Power-All FTW BTW. 2000mA of raw 9V powah.
 
umm the shimmer thing pitches the reverb tail up a FIFTH

yea thats right a fifth, not an octave like every other shimmer reverb

that kind of sucks. because not a lot of things sound great when harmonized by a fifth

maybe i'll return this :(
 
Thats really weird... I mean a fifth is pretty neutral sounding but still...

well

try playing any chord or any scale and you'll get at least a few notes that are totally dissonant

so yep this goes back to the store, i'll try to get the hardwire supernatural instead

This cab seriously gives all of what was missing with my blackstar, tighter bass, smoother sound and of course it has this fizzy brutalness that just sounds fucking awesome, yet because the speakers are so clear, open chords sound better. I admit though it sounds like absolute shit on the clean channel, but I don't care about that :)

Still though, I need to sell the fucker and get a 6505, Triple XXX or maybe a ENGL fireball 60/100. I'm going to sell my ESP and GSP1101 and get a G-Major 2 since I don't use the amp models on the GSP and it colors the sound all the time, and after that my rig is pretty much complete until I get stuff for recording, someone help me out on this? I have an Macbook Bro with Logic but nothing else, can someone assist me on what else I need? Definitely the cheapest but not shitty options please :lol:

I also want one of these so bad, kinda matches my cab.
