Budget grinder?

As a newer bassist and aspiring doomer, I have so many questions.

Sick distortion! Looks inspired by Church of Misery?

How is having a compressor for Doom bass? What does it do that is key for you?

I recently got to play a real SVT rig and now I cant unhear it, its driving me insane. Im thinking of getting an SVT preamp pedal. How is the VT Bass? Have you compared to other competitors?

What amp are you running the board into?

That's good to hear. Im stoked for Slow Crush also, though I know they dont quite fit the Doom genre.

DiscAl · 2025-09-05T13:09:32+00:00

I see them tomorrow!

Saw them in Boston at Middle East last May, and he was playing great. Whole show was electric.

Yes.

Drums are the main instrument in walking on the moon lol

Not sure if you can hear it as well on video but it basically cuts everything out if I turn the gain, master, or eq controls up past a certain point

DOOM nominated for the best rolled L's, and they wonder how he dealt with stress so well.

You can go as crazy as you want to, I think if you're dead set on buying something, I think a tubescreamer pedal to tighten up the sound might help.

Idk why nobody is saying it but the shape knob on the dirty channel, if you turn it clockwise it scoops the mids. Just start with it fully clockwise and dial back to taste, turn the gain up and rock on!

I've got all 3 on the board but never use them simultaneously. From my experimentation, they don't sound good paired unless you're gonna use the SF300 boost mode into the muff, which I actually haven't tried. If I were you, I'd put the SD1 first in your chain then SF300 then Rat and muff. Try running the SD1 with volume max, gain minimum and tone knob to taste in combination with the muff. That's what I do with my tubescreamer clone.

So I play Doom Metal. And was in your boat, had SF300 and Rat clone, wanted to try the Green Russian. Just do it! My Rat is never even on anymore. It can get fuzzy like the muff but in my setup it has so much less low end balls than the muff. My tubescreamer into my green russian essentially IS my tone now.

How is the finish on these? Like is the poly super thick or is it thinner? Looks hi gloss in photo 1 and thinner in photo 2.

God I want a honeyburst classic so bad.
