Title: post your rig of doom!
Post by: matador_sound on October 11, 2011, 03:16:12 PM
I'm curious to see what sort of gear you guys have. so, post it up! guitars and amps/cabs!

(http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i51/Hachi_Kid/Vincent/CIMG2544.jpg)

body:
solid body swamp ash
controls - CTS 500k/concentric 500k/500k, mini toggle 2 way switch for tone cut for Model 1, 3 way toggle switch (series/single coil/parallel) for coil tap for X2N-7
dual outputs
Badass III bridge string thru body
black Schaller straplocks
tummy cut and forearm contour
finish - sunset orange

neck:
Canary p bass style neck w/ Canary fretboard
standard back contour (chunky as hell!)
21 frets
Stainless Steel 6115 frets
Hipshot ultra lights w/ hipshot D-Tuner
black block inlay
Graph Tech Black TUSQ XL string nut
raw neck (^_^)

electronics/hardware:
neck position - Dimarzio DP145 Will Power Model One
middle position - Dimarzio DP146 Will Power Model P
bridge position - Dimarzio X2N-7


the cab I'm currently using is a 4x10+6.5"/1x18 fridge style cab. the 4x10 is sealed, and the 1x18 is ported for better low end extension. the two heads are a Carvin X100B and an SWR Workingman's 4004. since I have dual outputs, I run the highs (p-pickup/X2N-7) and mids through the Carvin X100B, and that goes to the 4x10. the SWR carries my lows and low mids (Model One pickup), and that goes to the 1x18.

the whole rig is about 6' 1", or so on stage...just barely taller than me. looks menacing, for sure, and sound 10 miles wide.

here's a bit of music a friend and I made using this cab:

others, post up! let's see those rigs!

Engh, that pickup combo makes me happy..
Title: Re: post your rig of doom!
Post by: matador_sound on October 11, 2011, 03:25:06 PM
HA! yea, it sounds pretty incredible, too. it's the only non-Ric bass I've ever heard that sound like a Ric. pretty crazy. you can get about 4 different signature sounds out of it (EB-0, P-Bass, Rickenbacker, Musicman), as well as a few others that you can't quite pin down when you fool with mixing pickups, coil tap, and the tone controls.

Custom build, obv, who did it? Looks like great work...
Title: Re: post your rig of doom!
Post by: matador_sound on October 11, 2011, 03:40:18 PM
the wood was made/shaped/routed/painted by Warmoth. I put the thing together, though. they sent me the neck and body, and I sourced all the hardware and put it all together. after about a year, I had the frets professionally leveled, and I do all my own setup work on it. the only thing I didn't like about the fret leveling job is that the guy made the frets pretty flat. I wasn't happy about that. I got some tall stainless steel frets installed so the intonation would be more spot on, and he flattened the crap out of them. didn't notice it till about a week later, and it was sort of too late to say anything then.

Title: Re: Re: post your rig of doom!

Yeah, lots of hacks out there... that's why I learned to do my own fretwork...

Post by: matador_sound on October 11, 2011, 03:55:32 PM
tweed. I was looking at different sort of tolex, but tolex tears easy, and I realized that I never saw any Fender Bassman's or other tweed cabs that had huge holes in them...finally figured out it was a lot stronger than tolex, and it looks pretty neat in person. it just scratches a little, but no tears or rips.

That LDS reminds me a lot of the BLKARM, wonder what they would sound like up next to each other. Anyway, I'll post my rig-o-dewm when UPS gets of their ass and delivers my headbox.  >:(
Title: Re: post your rig of doom!
Post by: matador_sound on October 11, 2011, 04:05:00 PM
I think the difference is my cab is separated internally, and the midrange driver. the top half is a sealed structure for better mids and clarity, and the bottom half is ported for better low end extension and frequency handling.
Title: Re: post your rig of doom!
Post by: At_Giza on October 11, 2011, 04:08:15 PM
That's actually really cool. I think since it'sa a 4x10/1x15 it would work really well with a baritone guitar. At least, that's what I hope.  :-\

I still take my oldest Concert Bass out to jam since I wouldn't mind if it got destroyed (if thats even possible).

it's an 18" on bottom, not a 15". and this thing sounds beastly with a guitar through it, for sure. I actually have a design for a guitar cabinet that is designated for baritone guitars, or basses. it's a vertical 2x15 design that uses a guitar and bass speaker. the bass driver is for the lower frequencies, and the guitar speaker is there for the mids and top end. the trick is, there's a high pass filter on the guitar speaker to prevent over excursion. it's also a ported design. haven't built one yet, but I'm talking to some local artists about building it for them. should be pretty nasty.

also, grim...nice! love old Sunn stuff.

Derp, yeah, six feet tall, makes sense that it's a 18"... Sickness makes me slooooow. Anyway, I'd like to hear one of those some day. I think I could really get into that. Though I dunno if the Hovercraft I'm getting will be able to power it justly. Would have to stick to the betas for something like that.  :P
Title: Re: post your rig of doom!
Post by: matador_sound on October 11, 2011, 04:52:35 PM
hehe. nah, the cab isn't 6ft. with both heads it's just over 6ft. the cab is something like 48" tall without caster, or something. not much larger than a 8x10 cab...just a little wider and deeper than one, I think. the cab is at the practice space, so I can't get measurements right now. surprisingly, it's not bad with the amps I'm using. the Carvin is only 100 watts (tube), and the SWR is 400 watts (solid state). both are ran at 4ohms. each half is good for 800 watts each, so I haven't had any problems with them being underpowered, at all. I feel you on the sickness part...I somehow got strep throat, and I've been dealing with that since thursday...got some medicine yesterday, and I'm starting to feel a bit better, thankfully. totally forgot a friend had a clip of it up on youtube.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tg-2PtbBFio


I also checked out Hovercraft amps on youtube...those things sound pretty damn awesome!
Title: Re: post your rig of doom!
Post by: At_Giza on October 11, 2011, 05:05:29 PM
Oh yeah, I know, but the fact that it was six foot with those two amps atop it could only mean one thing... 18" of speaker was staring at me yet makin' me think it were fifteen. Pshaw. Take advantage of my headcold, will ya? FFS.

Well, my Hovercraft is the baby Andromeda, 18 watts of high gain win. So I doubt it could do justice for a cab like that. 2x12s all the way.

I'm so glad this is just a headcold, though there's no food in this house so I'm sitting here starving because of that. Shit sucks. xP

I don't think this recording is giving enough oomph for the cab to shine. Though changing some settings around it seems to help bring out the sound. Either way, I think that cab sounds awesome so far.

I rewired this bass stereo. The two switches next to each other are single coil/humbucker switches.
Im not sure why more basses are not wired like this, It sounds AWESOME!
T-40 def has a ric sound.

Title: Re: post your rig of doom!
Post by: matador_sound on October 11, 2011, 05:29:36 PM
T40!!!!!!!! those things are insane. I played one once, but the strings on it were beyond dead, so I wasn't able to really tell what it sounded like. although, I've heard they're a great Ric clone, as far as the sound. I remember them having a similar weight to a dying star, though...

stereo basses are the shit, though. it should be standard on every bass, for sure.

Post by: Lumpy on October 11, 2011, 06:03:23 PM
That LDS cab is absurd. I probably would have went with 2 separate cabs (old guy) or a tilt-back setup. I don't see any wheels.
Title: Re: post your rig of doom!
Post by: matador_sound on October 11, 2011, 06:16:51 PM
the wheels are removable 3" casters. DEFINITELY a smart decision. they don't lock, but the cab doesn't move. as far as two different cabs, it turns out this was a better choice. it fits in the back seat of your average sedan and truck, and fits PERFECTLY in the back of the van my band uses.

I just got to look at that bass on my computer, jesus christ it's even more beautiful than I expected. That neck = beauty.

Is that Carvin the X-100B????

Gangster head, if so.
Title: Re: post your rig of doom!
Post by: matador_sound on October 11, 2011, 07:34:01 PM
sweet. do it!

as far as the bass...Warmoth does some amazing shit, for sure. here's my TB post I made for it about a year ago: http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f8/nbd-warmoth-jaguar-bass-685566/

more pics and stuff inside. there's also direct sound clips in the thread, too.

fuck yeh it is! I got it plus the footswitch for $325 + tax at the local GC...awesome head, for sure. sounds a little scooped, but there's an unbelievable amount of gain on tap when using the "gain" switch.
Title: Re: post your rig of doom!
Post by: VOLVO))) on October 11, 2011, 07:36:38 PM
They sound good as guitar heads. I always thought they sounded scooped as fuck, so I didn't play mine very much, but I sure do miss it...

Just because I said I would.  :P

(http://i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j335/At_Giza/photo25.jpg)
The "Rig" as a whole. Acoustic 406 2x15 run by the beta bass and alpha slave. While that cab below the Crate 4x12 says Sovtek on it, I just badged it as such so the Sovtek MiG 60 I used to have has some continuity to its stack. Now the beta lead and the beta power + run them both pretty well. Got footswitches for both the betas, which is cool. I usually run them both with a Morley ABY, which sounds pretty cool, give it an almost stereo effect.

(http://i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j335/At_Giza/photo17.jpg)
I use this SX Nashville tele copy mostly, thinking about getting a baritone neck for it from Warmoth, with a bit under $300 that I don't have at the moment. If I do that I'll probably replace the pickups with something less cheapo. Though for a little over $100 this guitar is pretty great.

(http://i1080.photobucket.com/albums/j335/At_Giza/photo24.jpg)
This headbox (made by Emperor) just got here today, I have to say, it's utterly beautiful. I got it as such so I could stuff the few effects and the footswitch into it.

My current rig is still really in flux, im selling off tons of shit to get a set of Emperor cabs

I guess my main head is the 1st wizard, its on an Avatar 4x12, I also have a Mesa (selling these to get Emperors) I have a myriad of other amps floating around, most of which I am attempting to get rid of.

I know it's not a "traditional" rig of doom and I know alot of people hate these amps, but if you've ever play a Sovtek Mig you've played a Krank.

Title: Re: post your rig of doom!
Post by: moose23 on October 12, 2011, 03:33:26 PM
Is the Krank pretty much a JCM800 clone then?

We're back jamming again next week so I'll get a rig photo sorted but here it is in words:

Squier Classic Vibe Jazz tuned C# (might switch this out with my 00 American Jazz when the strings wear out.)
Korg Pitch Black Tuner
Modified Tall Font Russian Muff Clone (just replaced my real Tall Font)
Phase 90
Tech21 Oxford
Trace Elliot power amp PA250
DIY 1x15 cab with an Emminence Omega Pro

Have another 1x15 with either a Beta or Delta but never really use it as the cab is crap. Should really rehouse the speaker and get some use out of it.
Title: Re: post your rig of doom!
Post by: Chalupacabra on October 12, 2011, 05:43:42 PM
For the most part it is, I think with just an added sweep (parametric) EQ. The Rev 1(what I have) is  a modified Mig 100H, which is a modifed JCM800 with 6l6's.

Here's some info on the Mig's from Rig Talk. http://www.rig-talk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=57371&hilit=krank+sovtek (http://www.rig-talk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=57371&hilit=krank+sovtek)

Here's some photo's of the first Krank proto.

Here's this one as well

(http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n293/Calvert13/EarlyKrankChadwick.jpg)

Look familiar?

(http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n293/Calvert13/MIG50HFront.jpg)


I'm not a crazed Krank fanatic like some are, I just got it at a KILLER deal cause the owner got on the hating hype .. and well .. it works out well for me at this point. Though I still want a Sunn, Orange or a Plexi real soon.

I bought that one before I lost my job. I would have already had matching cases made for the each of them, though the beta bass' case would be Ebony faced. I wouldn't want the alpha slave or the beta power + in the same case, I'd rather have them be standalone units. I'm still on the fence about what cabs I want to pair with them. I'm either thinking a single 6x12 for the beta lead or a pair of vertical 2x12s, and either a 2x10 and 1x15 stack for the beta bass or double of that in a stack (but only if I get the 6x12 for the lead). I dunno if any of this will be done. I am contemplating selling them in the future and just buying a Magma or a Magma Driver.  :P

Our drummer seems to dig it

What guitar is on top there Jake?
Title: Re: post your rig of doom!
Post by: VOLVO))) on October 15, 2011, 01:46:14 PM
That is a black mexi strat that I modified the everliving fuck out of.

New pickups, new pickguard, new trem, new tuners, new nut, fret leveling and crown, neck shim, new pots/caps/jacks/jackplate. pickguard screws and rear cover.

Sounds good, but nothing sounds like the Peavey T-60. It's just too rude. None of my guitars sound like it. Sad that I can't really use it.

New pics, but same rig as I posted on the old board...

Verellen custom 100w stack.
New Agile Al-3000m.

Need to redo these pic down the line in better lighting and once I get my pedal board and hagstrom in order.

Nice setup man!!! Quality! I know the circuits changed some, but do you have a preference between the Hiwatt and Sound city?

Well the Hiwatt has a clean that's unbeatable and it will absorb, literally, any pedal you throw at it, but, the Sound City has a nastiness and presence that you can't get out of a Hiwatt. I'm a bit more partial to the Hiwatt, but they both rule.

Oh, I know...  :D

I just can't justify it right now. If I were playing with people, or needed a live backup it'd be different. I really just need a 2nd amp for in house purposes as it gets colder. we'll see...  :-[

i hear that and i just bought a new emperor i guess my weak justification is that I need it to test amps that i build

Indeed, I managed to luck out and find a local dude unloading one for cheap or else I would have definitely gone the clone route.

Nick, or Herb, What'doyathink, if I were able to scrounge up the iron, chassis, and other vitals, would it cost to get a hand on somethin' simple along the lines of that hiwatt? Just the amp, no reverb, nothin'.

You could steal the layout from Weber, haven't looked to see how close to the original it is.

Cost of me pasting the pic from Weber, no charge :)

Webers are tad gainer than the originals they use a dual pre phase inverter MV and a PPIMV, if you dont give a fuck just omit the master volumes like the originals, and fuck that fucker to it bleeds

i heard some clips tho, its pretty nice sounding regardless. the one with 88s might be total doom

Talk to me about a head design, we can come up with something to fit your needs that you can build which I can design

You could do the Sunn then, a bit less busy, actually if you subb'd in a bax stack on the pots, tge board would seem pretty empty.

I did that before, it sounds nice. 6s100 is an easy build in terms of noise,grounding, and oscillations.
