Resurrection time. Nearly a decade on and I've just joined the Wahoo love in. Anyone else still using theirs has any useful tips or tricks.. feel free to share. You will be rewarded with my undying gratitude.

Meanwhile back on the topic of covers bands

@leftybassman392 sounds like absolute paradise

I try not to moan if I can avoid it but the Super Fuzz (£21 brand new from a shop) can be purchased used, unboxed for £25, £30 and even £50 and £60. I get it, some people are out to make money out of the unwary and some of you will see it as the buyer's responsibility to shop around, but I can't bear it. Blatantly hoping to rip off some poor soul, I don't blame the victim.

I do have vibrato on the multi effect which at present is putting a little upper octave in, I'll give it a try, it's the SF300 on the top of my hitlist right now. Oh and I discovered there's a third wah pedal in the Behringer armoury!

I do like a nice wobbly synth I must say!

Is it good for bass? Whoops my mistake I thought it was the fuzz!

I'm in awe of musicians who can play such disparate parts and still keep tight and together.

Wonderful!

I had both the 3 and the 5 and both were garbage. The Behringer is excellent, so is the tuner and the chorus. The filter and wah pedals work just fine too. In fact it's all perfectly useable. The multi effect is a bit meh, and I need a distortion still. Otherwise I'm nearly good to go.

😂😂 (You'd be surprised actually. Some of the discontinued ones are creeping up in price.)

Fixed, thank you!

I have connected it all back together and apart from a couple of scratchy pots everything appears to work. I can certainly achieve recognisable bass notes from it. However... all is not well. It buzzes. Loudly. But only when I touch the controls. No other metal parts buzz when touched. Any ideas?

The Donner one is excellent, pairs really quickly, goes weeks between charges.

Aaaaaargh - completely forgot to put the expression pedal on the board 🤦🏼‍♂️ It's only a small volume drop, not much of a problem and fixed with a boost pedal. In fact the boost gives me more sound sculpting options with the filter. So a behringer expression pedal goes on the list! I will need a new bit of carpet at this rate 🤣

It interests me particularly because I used to be so angry all the time, and always with other people refusing to adhere to my point of view. Back then if I accused someone of sitting on the fence it was literally the worst insult I could throw. More recently I've been trying to change the way I live and recognise that what other people think is none of my business. To be accused of being a fence sitter myself is wonderful indication that I am succeeding.

Just as I thought I'd finished my all Bxxxxxxxr board, two more 10 quid specials arrive in the post. So looks like I'll be pulli g it apart again. The ABY isn't working properly anyway. I am running two separate paths, the idea being that the WAH pedal (and/or the filter) are on their own track which I can turn up on the level control of the ABY. This is to combat a palpable volume drop with the filter pedal engaged. Unless I'm missing something I thought the ABY would do this. However volume A increases both A and B, while volume B appears to do llareggub. I was using the EHX tri parallel mixer to solve the levels issue but it spoiled the brand purity of the idea. There is a clean boost on FB market for 25 sobs but I'm maxed out on my effects budget until next month.

An interesting interpretation

Don't bogart it man, send it round, quality street innit

I know right? Like, om.

I like the guy who makes JHS pedals, his YouTube channel is full of great pedal tips and fascinating history too. He suggests running one boost into another for an ubër tweakable overdrive effect.
