Spinal Meningitis (Got Me Down) - Ween

Not two equal sized pieces of the same wood type weights exactly alike, not even from the same tree, and sometimes the variations can even be fairly significant.

Apparently not for me, I much preferred the tone of the EMG preamp samples in the comparison demo. - Who is it that makes the WAL like HPF/LPF, with resonant peaks, filter preamp, can't recall the name of the company or the preamp model? But that would what I personally would chose, if I was to upgrade one of my passive basses with an onboard preamp.

The order you wrote them in is fine, you might want to experiment with putting the chorus before the overdrive and see which order you like the best, and the preamp last, right before the poweramp.

I love it!

"Ohh-iih-oh I look just like Geezer Butler..."

No, but I do own the California (Mesa Boogie), American (Fender) and Oxford (Orange), in the same series of pedals. And I kind of plan on getting the British (Marshall) at some point too. Must admit I don't like the California, too dark for my taste, sounds muffled to me, but you can get some serious monstrously ballsy heavy distortion out of it with the Drive knob cranked. I like the American, but mostly for guitar, though it has received quite a lot of praise both used for guitar and bass, and even used as stand alone bass preamp. I love the Oxford, you can get some really amazing snappy grindy and grunty drive tones out of it, but sounds great as a low gain overdrive as well.

"The Rite of Spring Suite: Dances of the Young Girls" by the Danish band The Firebirds :

There isn't such a thing as the one ultimate right way to pluck. Personally I more so stroke the strings lightly, rather than really plucking or pulling the strings, in a slight inward slapping motion, with the outmost tip of my fingers/nails, but that is a not too common plucking technique. Some prefer to pick more aggressively, almost pulling the strings, and that works for them (though one thing to keep in mind that this way you will have less room for dynamics). I also utilize 1 and 3 finger plucking technique, classical guitar finger picking style technique, and flamenco guitar index and/or middle finger (sometimes ring finger too) flicking technique, as well a double thumbing technique, depending. My advice is to experiment to see which technique you personally feel most at home with and which gives you the tone you want, but also be open to incorporate less traditional picking techniques for a broader palette of expression. Also I advice you to learn floating thumb technique, instead of anchoring your thumb on top of the strings, in my opinion this will give you much more freedom, and make muting easier and more effective.

Buttar? Plays like buttar...

The Anal Staircase - Coil (opening track)

I never really got The Who either, but I did like Entwistle's playing, and I for one actually think it suited the songs (as far as I am concerned the only thing interesting about their otherwise pretty boring bland generic rock songs, but in my opinion despite that his playing didn't sound out of place or forced in any possible way).

An argument I had with him on Talk Bass got us both banned (or rather the same argument got him banned, not my contribution in specific to that argument, though I suppose maybe that doesn't really tell much, since they seem quite generous with the ban hammer on that forum).

Yes, why even bother living when it will only be a matter of time before they invent a robot that does it better than you?
