i don't get it either. he's a good bass player with some tasty toanz, and MAD skeelz with the loopings.

You Can't!!!!!!!!!!!

I know it man... How many OD thread are needed at the same time?!?!?! Had I not been selling stuff I prolly wouldn't have been on at all. Speaking of which... Peeps not leaving feedback drive me crazy!

You're not going to want to hear this, but.... They were probably on stage at Neumos when you posted that...

You're right, I didn't. I've been so busy preparing to move that I haven't paid attention to shit.

Basically this. I'm a big fan of his, but as much for his TAAS and Botch playing as for his Russian Circles stuff. I wouldn't go as far as worship, but there is very little of his stuff that I haven't liked.

I've listened to plenty of Russian Circles, certainly enough to form an opinion, and honestly I haven't noticed anything mind-blowing about the bass playing so far. I know that this is probably heresy, but I'm not getting why people gush over the guy.

I dunno, I appreciate the fact that he can create such simple, yet still very powerful basslines that make their point in the music. In Botch, These Arms are Snakes, Russian Circles he doesn't need a thousand notes to get his point across. His lines are simple, but they still drive the music forward where it needs to go.

I'm a fan of his too. But, I must confess... I found Botch and These Arms are Snakes pretty late and didn't even know he was in Russian Circles until I read it somewhere on TB. I do like what he does though.

Thanks, behndy. I might have to start saving up money. So, when he's six, I'll have enough money to buy him one.

Unfortunately, I've heard kind of crappy reviews of them.

Thanks, Grrface. My brother-in-law is kind of a bumblehead. So, I wouldn't trust him to put it together. My dad or I would have to do it. I've got some time to consider this purchase, my nephew's still a little too young. It is a bit on the expensive side for what it seems to be. Looks pretty nice though.

Buddy of mine used to be in a Bay Area punk'ish band...their guitarist used a Loog onstage sometimes.

It's like that with Tool duder and guy from RATM.....I mean....their tones sound good in those bands...but they are MOTHERFUCKING SHIT outside of them. Fucking awful UNTATSEY.

It's like Greg Graffin. I love Bad Religion. One of my favorite bands. And I love Greg Graffin. But he's a horrid singer. It works for Bad Religion but it would be shit with anything else. That's the Tool and RATM tone in a nutshell....and these cockmonkies keep chasing it like douchecanos.

AND WHY THE FUCK ARE BITCHES STILL PIMPING THAT FUCKING TECH21 STUFF?!?!?! I mean, the B3K isn't my flavor but I get it. I see why it's good and why people like it. But who the fuck gets a BDDI and says "this is IT. I have FOUND MY TONE!!!"

FFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

yah. i like the Sansamp a'ight as a preamp. but their distortion sounds like kittens getting fucked by dicks covered in sandpaper.

Can you guess who didn't sleep much?

Near as I can tell, having owned a VT Bass once (don't hate on me...I sold it) and messed with a friend's BDDI, they're for the folks who want the Ampeg vibe but not enough to actually spend money on for-real Ampeg.

I feel like getting a darkstar in the neck position of my MM sterling single H/piezo

Also, does anyone own a single D'addario Chromes 132 string and doesn't need it?

Good Luck finding that DarkStar

MOTHERFUCKING LAWNMOWERS!!!!!

I'm on my 4th one of the season.
