exactly. drumsticks, power tools, etc. drill>wah.

yeah, they were all on dat glen branca shit.

Om. Not a whole lot new apart from the fact that Al's ditched the DS1.


looks like the lehle splits the signal with one side going through the POG before the 250 into an amp, the other just going straight into a second DOD into another amp. He was using a SVT/8x10 and two of those new fliptop type ampeg heads into a couple smaller ampeg cabs, not sure what size speakers. One of the fliptops might've been for the minitaur too?


Roland foot controller for the minitaur. Only used this in the end of 'state of non return'.

It was the most ridiculously dub, bass heavy mix I've ever heard. Thanks to the low roof where I was standing all I could really here was cymbals and low rumblings haha.

And, in other news, his distortion was super unexciting when I saw them last. I miss tube/DS-1 Om.

yeah it's not great. He only used distortion like once or twice anyway.

Not a pedal board, but the dude from TTNG apparently has a Squier Jag Bass modified into a guitar.

WUT

Weird...

That is sweet.
A lone middle pickup is The Way.

judging by them strings, it might be a kind of a shortscale Bass VI, no?

TTNG are awesome, the new album slays... too bad i couldn't see them earlier this month when they were here

Whelp, now I really want to make one of those.

Dunno what's up with that bridge, but it doesn't look like it's been moved forward, so it's basically a 34"-scale 6-string. It'd be easy-peasy to convert.
