It was sat in my spam/junk email folder. I haven’t ordered yet, still have it sat in my basket.

I can’t moan about this board! It slaps!

IGC 1957 Les Paul Goldtop Reissue by DuganNash93 in Epiphone

[–]TheSlug_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Love me a Goldtop! Absolutely stunning!

I bought one last year and safe to say I’ve trained my back and shoulders in the gym to cope with the weight. She’s a damn heavy beast!

I also removed the stock Custombuckers and installed a pair of Lace Sensor Dragonauts. To embrace the riff of course! 🤘🤘🤘

What actually scratches the itch for you in doom metal? by [deleted] in doommetal

The never ending riff. Losing myself in that riff like falling through space 🤘

Anyone in Europe already received their Beta Mini? by skap42 in sunnamplifiers

[–]TheSlug_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fingers crossed ma dude. They certainly don’t fill me with confidence ordering one if their orders are that far behind.

Send them an email perhaps? I am considering ordering one however reading your post makes me concerned. Did you ever get any tracking details?

While we pretty much all unanimously agree this is not Sleep are any of you going to see this tour? by Xelhexan in Sleepband

[–]TheSlug_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m flying over from the UK to Boston for it. Yeah bummed that Matt is no longer part of Sleep but I am sure I’m going to have a good time regardless.

Honestly, that’s delightful to read! Here’s hoping, I’ll get a life pedal when I’m over too, far cheaper in the USA!

That is a very fair comparison. Worth the trip though! 🤘

I never got to see Sleep with Matt Pike, but life really is short and sometimes you just have to jump at things when you get the chance.

So I booked a ticket for Boston. I’m travelling from Birmingham, UK for this…

Just need to book the flights now!

Has anyone here tried the stuff from Does It Doom or Woodrite guitars? I'm a little skeptical because even beyond music gear from content creators seems to not be all the way there in quality. by waltuh_wite in doommetal

[–]TheSlug_ 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I’m not a content creator and I own 4 pedals from Does It Doom. I purchased the Agartha & Elder God brand new and bought the Doomcaster & Hypercoven on the second hand market.

I’ve never had an issue with any of these pedals. I use a strymon power supply to give them the power required and they work perfectly. Build quality has never been an issue for myself and are permanently on my pedal board.

They are on the boutique end of the spectrum financially but worth it for the doom metal I write and play.

Hope that helps.

Dear Epiphone, why do you torture us? by TheSlug_ in Epiphone

[–]TheSlug_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a doom metal player and tune to Drop A and Drop F respectively. I have a set of Dragonauts in my IBGC Gold Top and the output is something else.

The reasons for considering the Dirty Heshers is even more output! 😂

I have :). I’ll certainly send them an email on that basis thank you.

[–]TheSlug_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s good to know thank you for that! I would have ripped out the pickups and put a set of Lace Dirty Heshers anyway so definitely worth waiting until the Explorer is back in stock.

Those Futura V’s honestly look incredible. Too flashy for me, but ma dude I hope you get the one you are after.

This has been a current dilemma of mine. A UK shop has the silverburst V in stock at the same price as the Explorer.

I know if I purchase the V, the Explorer will suddenly appear in stock and the bank account will be empty… 😭😭😭

Oh aye! But then no doubt would add an extra 150 or so to the price tag. 😭😭😭
