that silverburst is basically a gibson though...same colour schemes...single cut...double humbucker, rosewood fretboard.
But seriously, yeah, i haven't used gibsons (Gibson style) for a while...much prefer the bolt on longer scale, much more snap to the attack and don't lose anything on sustain and resonance...also maple neck for the win...soo much better for low tunings.
Also Jake...how's the Quilter amp going? you still in love with it??

That silverburst is an all Warmoth build. The black one is too, except for a Fender body. I prefer thicker necks that what typically come stock, so those both have 50s Gibby neck profiles. The Jazzy and the Star are only med Cs, unfortunately.
Always been a Gibson guy, because playing heavy music...who isn't? Saw ISIS on Oceanic tour and was introduced to the majesty of the Tele Deluxe. That's a very good gateway instrument from Gibson to Fender. Surprised more downtuned bands don't take advantage of that sucker.
made my bandmates, who are a little younger than i am, listen to "Dr. Doom, a Man of Science, Doesn't Believe in Jesus, Why the Fuck do You" today because of the stupid china breakdown at the end.

Yes, yes, YES! Madly in love with it, thank you for asking. Recently fought off the urge to snag one of the new 2-channel ones for an all SS stereo rig. Well, at least kicked that can down the road ... for now.

Which Quilter amp do you have? I have yet to try one but I've heard good things.. and feels like it might be the ticket to a "pack up and go to jams" setup with a small, high-power-rating speaker cab.

from memory Jake has the 201...I've been looking at the 101...seems like its loud enough with good headroom too. Like you say, its make for a great grab and go. I've had the crate before, but never felt it sounded that good.
Cheers. You've increased my GAS for it, and I just dropped a ton on a new amp.
This kind of setup is really appealing: https://instagram.com/p/BWLCIIkjZFQ/ (Except I was thinking today that maybe the 1x15 combo cab from one of those Fender Excelsiors + a Quilter 101 Reverb would be a really cool pairing. Don't know where I'll find that cab with the amp removed, though.)

Hey doombros! I haven't posted in awhile. Life keeps me pretty busy these days with non-doom related activities. However, I have decided I will take a vacation and that vacation will be Psycho Las Vegas! I know Khemmis will be there. Any other doomroomers going?

Many months ago, when I tried to check this forum, my phone went to the "buy this domain" page. like the bill didn't get paid or the page shut down. I have been reading and occasionally posting in the regular forum, occasionally trying the link to here, always getting the same result. I was bummed that it was just gone. I guess today is the first time i've tried to look from my desktop and it turns out y'all have been here the whole time. it was just my stupid phone. anyway, hello. glad things are still alive over here.

Yeah, I think we need to get Tom to update the link or someone needs to re-buy the domain and point it here?

It's been that way off and on for a while, then permanently. I have to get here from the main forum index. I think the index also calls the sub-forum out as "ilovedoom.org" now too. I'm guessing there was some issue with the hosting of the standalone domain name.
