The Doom Room: ILF Edition

[pelliott]

Has anyone here played Jazzmasters for Sludge and heavier styles? I'm having a massive Jazzmaster GAS attack.

I think Stavros in Atlas Moth has used a Jazzmaster. I could be mistaken. But he uses guitars not normally associated with downtuned sludgy stuff.

I think a 12 string version of a jazzy would be pretty wild. The bigsby equipped 12 I have is fun to mess around with behind the bridge. Some cool sounds there. I'm wondering how it would sound if the extra string length could be set to a specific tonal range. Right now I get plinky noises. Maybe some sort of movable anchor system could be implemented. The guitars I've seen around here with the behind the bridge pups look freaking awesome.

No ryan, We need larger trees. Doom Room = huge, excessive, above and beyond what is normally considered reasonable. We need a redwood that is thousands of years old which we will hollow out and fill with amplification and massive arrays of speakers.
Whisk, you're whole collection will be required for this. Sorry man, sacrifices must be made.

Doomwoods....sounds like a drama on HBO. A band of doomers gets caught in the woods. Slowly, one by one, they disappear into the darkness. Is it supernatural intervention, or some dodgey shrooms?

Ok, recap:
Angry: Generally, I think the standard of boob jobs is improving. There is certainly a hierarchy of quality plastic surgery as porn stars climb the career ladder, though. Until they climb too high, then they look like monkey face Jenna Jameson.

Flux Dudes and Daz: Congrats on the rad show!

Summit: I got yer BI-annual...right here.



Something about jazzys?: Yeah, I dig em. Rad looking guits, I just wish they made em neck-thru. I'd be all over that...

Oh, yeah. The guy that ended up getting my EX-7 all busted up was no hassle and fixed it DIY styles. Cool dude. Makes his own amps in Tasmania and shit. I'm still never putting a pedal in a bag ever again, though.

I might start watching TV again for this.

That Algal Doom is just I don't know what amazing. I mean to look at. I can only guess at its auditory gumption. Hopefully I don't have to guess for long! We're gonna be jamming again soon, methinks.

[ryan summit]

yeah doomwoods is the way to go
and the trees you describe
they only exist where weed is born
id def make the trip west
and the dodgier the shrooms,the better
i got these ones from a phish-tour hippie once....
ah forget it

john..tell'em you put a badascan in b/s/t

[AxAxSxS]

I saw that badascan. Very tempting and if I hadn't just picked up a Revelation I'd prolly be all over that. Someone should def snag that.

Yeah pretty much that but with lots of amps.

[MeSoFuzzy]

I want to shroom in the woods while me ears bleed and my brain is on the brink of exploding from loud and heavy riffs! Last time I tripped the guy that did it with me totally ruined it

I still want to host a doom show in my backyard, but I don't think its going to happen

Thanks, man!



It appears he does, but I think it must be a partsmaster because it has no logo on the headstock and because the pickups are not traditional Jazzmaster single coils. What do they look like to you? Maybe EGC, EMG or something by Lace?

Something about jazzys?: Yeah, I dig em. Rad looking guits, I just wish they made em neck-thru. I'd be all over that...

My GAS has somewhat worn off since yesterday. I love the shape and vibe, but almost everything else doesn't suit me. I've heard the pickups are a little like Strat pickups. I don't like that. Also, because of the bridge and vibrato tailpiece, the guitar is best with thick gauge strings, which I have no problem with, high action, which I do have a problem with, and lacks sustain due to the angle of the strings between the tailpiece and the bridge. A neck-thru body would definitely help with sustain, but one of the remedies for the high action is to shim the neck, something you wouldn't be able to do with a neck-thru or glued-in design.

I still really want a Jazzmaster, just one with a stop tailpiece, a different position for the pickup selector, flatter radius (don't like the 7.25" that most Jazzy's come with), and P90 pickups. The PureSalem Wood Soul seems to fit the bill:



Ideally I'd have a Fano JM6 or something like that, but I can't afford €2500 for a guitar right now:

[Nostradoomus]

Yeah that's (fittingly) a Warmoth build. Not sure about pickups but it's baritone scale.

[Ancient Astronaught]

I believe its 30" bass vi scale, and yes its a warmoth build. I looked into it a while ago but forgot all the details.
