Guitar/Bass/Drums thread version 2.0

I have a broken saddle on my bass, so I've decide with my return I'm just going to buy a brand new bridge and saddles and my input jack completely fixed.

Pretty much right when Ovada went on an indefinite hiatus/broke up, I changed my drum setup around a little bit to include a couple more toms that I hadn't used in a while. Here's a list of the new setup, and hopefully I'll get some pics when I'm in this weekend.

6 Piece Premier Artist Maple Drumset
22x18 bass drum (with a Tama Iron Cobra double bass pedal)
16x16 floor tom
14x12 rack tom
12x10 rack tom
10x9 rack tom
14x5.5 Tama Swingstar snare (I think it's a Swingstar, but I'm not 100%)

Cymbals
20" Avedis Zildjian rock ride
18" Sabian AA thin crash with a bunch of nails stuck through and a huge chunk missing - this fucker is trashy as hell
18" Avedis Zildjian rock crash
16" Zildjian A Custom fast crash
14" Sabian B8 hi-hat bottom with 14" Sabian AA medium crash as the top hat
~9" custom bell made from a broken 18" crash

I guess I never got around to posting my noise gear. The setup changes with pretty much every jam, but my collection if you want to call it that consists of the following:

Instruments/Sources:
microKorg synthesizer/vocoder
some shitty toy keyboard that runs on batteries and only has a headphone jack

Epiphone acoustic (cheap, really not worth mentioning)

Bass Gear:
Fender Squire Jazz Pbass hybrid
15 inch speaker, eminence maybe? home made box
Acoustic 200 watt head
3 Channel Sans Amp

I'm bored, and reading this thread makes me want to take pictures of all my stuff. Perhaps I will do so at some point in the future.

No pic at the moment since all my gear isn't here, but I'll at least write a list of what I be rockin with.

Marshall JCM 2000 TSL 100 head

Not currently in use:
Digitech Wh-1 Whammy

Boss GE 7 Equalizer

why are you not using that wh-1? every guitar nerd at every show you play would be sucking yr dick. i bet you paid like >$500 for it didn't you, you naughty little boy.

also did somebody from to kill or cure have a morely volume/wah they didn't want anymore or something?

Just don't have much use for the Whammy pedal in Burner anymore. And I had just a Bad Horsie for sale, it's kinda jacked though, wah function won't turn off once you push the pedal down so I need to get it fixed.

Also, didn't pay shit for the original Whammy. Inherited it.

Yeah, no pictures, but I am bored enough to list all my crap.

Other set, Mapex Pro M in Natural.
24x18

about 7 or 8 other pedals that I built, which are clones of other pedals

Drums
Gretsch Renown maple 4 piece set in autumn burst
sabian ride
zildjian a custom and a crashes, and new beats hi hats

what clones you got guy?

and zach, inheriting a wh1 is fucking killer. you must be surrounded by really amazing people. that's something that is only going to gain value, man. i'd love to hear it some time! weird that you don't find a use for it, cuz with heavy music, the octave down/dive bomb settings make things 100x better for me. that's cool though, i'm glad i know somebody who owns one haha.

I may try to incorporate it back onto the pedal board, that preamp I started using really cleans up my signal so I can probably cram more effects on it now without sounding like a scratchy fart.

just got a sunn model 2 2x12 cab for $70.

my girlfriend just bought me a devi ever shoegazer and an akai headrush.

i'll post pics of my rig/guitars/board when it all gets here.

Bass talk is kinda boring I guess, but whatever:

For straightforward stuff:

'57 Precision reissue
'00ish American Precision
Geddy Lee Jazz

through

Sansamp Programmable DI (Not as much lately)
USA Big Muff
Boss Tuner

------

For the Drink Deep stuff I used a different setup:

Fender Musicmaster
Gibson Ripper (on recordings)

through
USA Big Muff
ProCo Rat
A mini-mixer on the pedalboard I used to play songs at the end of a set through an iPod


Both setups run through

SVT Classic -> The Fridge

It's reaally cool, I think I'm gonna have to find an owners manual for it. So many sounds, echos, delays, etc.
