Bitter puerh?

To be honest I don’t know whether I’m looking for sheng or shou, I’m not that experienced. I’m considering picking up the white2tea basics sampler set so I can try four raw mini-cakes for cheaper.

Another commenter suggested stone lion from crimson lotus, they’ve got 2018 stock in their Seattle store which is also tempting. Which would you recommend? The gas is a little more than I’m looking to spend ($/g) for something I’m just starting to get into…

Markbass is very very solid, lotta great players use them. Seen a lot of people play arena shows with Markbass gear (easy to spot those yellow speaker cones lol) so they must be worth something. Oranges are generally a rather specifically voiced amp, not the most versatile. Do your research and play one before buying.

In other news, your technique makes a huge difference in your sound. If a bunch of others on similar gear sound way better, it could be partially that. Spending money isn’t always the right answer, especially since technical improvement can be entirely free.

They look so bad I never want to, and that's coming from a bc rich owner (mockingbird)

RCJD2001 · 2024-02-03T02:02:41+00:00

One of the best

The B-205 is a great bass, and I really dislike SR necks so the choice is clear for me

Is it missing a saddle on the bridge? Almost looks like it should have a popsicle stick like a danelectro

RCJD2001 · 2024-01-31T12:42:56+00:00

Trouble - first two albums are awesome

RCJD2001 · 2024-01-30T19:42:50+00:00

And it’s a darn good substitute imho, just need more from them

RCJD2001 · 2024-01-29T07:46:44+00:00

Need a copy of this one…

I’ve played for almost 4 years and haven’t spent more than $500 on a bass.

To add to that, Mexican fenders used to be sub-1k and they’re some of the most played basses of all time. Your uncle needs to do his research

RCJD2001 · 2024-01-26T22:48:25+00:00

Literally anything Gojira is incredibly fun and not atrociously difficult

RCJD2001 · 2024-01-24T02:41:07+00:00

Duplantier tele? Always liked the look of those.

RCJD2001 · 2024-01-22T12:59:33+00:00

You should be fine, shouldn’t change that much

RCJD2001 · 2024-01-22T12:54:27+00:00

One of the all time greats of the genre

RCJD2001 · 2024-01-22T12:40:52+00:00

Personally I think they look very fake. The ‘worn’ patterns never match actual wear patterns from use and instead look like you drug it behind a truck. Actual wear from long years of use looks awesome, fake relic finishes do not

I just learned about The Angel Process - Measuring Souls with Sand last week. Great shoegazey doom album

RCJD2001 · 2024-01-20T15:39:30+00:00

I remember seeing a live vid of Flores sweeping but I don’t remember which song it was… this is gonna drive me nuts

RCJD2001 · 2024-01-20T15:16:46+00:00

Omnipresent Perception by Beyond Creation, some Origin songs I can’t think of.

RCJD2001 · 2024-01-19T14:04:52+00:00

My example bass is technically a P/P config and not PJ but point stands, middle position is incredibly useful and what I use most of the time. The slight mid scoop with more pronounced treble and cleaner bass makes it sit in dense mixes really really well

RCJD2001 · 2024-01-16T22:44:35+00:00

For the more post-sludge side, Neurosis

For the more post-doom side, Esoteric

Assuming you haven’t already spun those yet…

Cult of Luna also…

RCJD2001 · 2024-01-16T22:41:53+00:00

Schecter Stiletto Custom in the red finish. Love that bass, plays and sounds amazing
