[quote name='BassManKev' post='274329' date='Sep 1 2008, 11:09 AM'] if you think that dude, id just stick to cranking your ampeg [/quote] as apposed to raping peoples ears with high end fizzle? to me it just seems like you like bad tone i'm sorry but thats the impression i get.

[quote name='1976fenderhead' post='274190' date='Sep 1 2008, 01:12 AM']Here are a couple of samples recorded with the American Deep amp sim (basically, an SVT sound) setting in Logic Pro and an MIA Jazz Bass Deluxe with everything neutral except slight emphasis on neck pickup: 1 file played with fingers, Gain and Mix at around 1 or 2 o'clock, Tone and Level at 12. The other file played with pick, Gain and Tone at around 10 o'clock, Mix and Level at 12. 1st part of recording clean, 2nd part distortion and 3rd w/Boost.[/quote] i like, nice playing ;<

[quote name='Exile252' post='274108' date='Aug 31 2008, 10:54 PM']Thanks for the info. The Blowtorch does look pretty hardcore aswell hehe.[/quote] [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDn45pM38xk"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDn45pM38xk[/url] this is the clip i think half the reason it sounds so bad is his normal tone is so scooped and has so much high end going on as it is, i wouldn't have high hopes for that pedal anyway, i don't think a blow torch is going to do an od/distortion sound as good as some other pedals will either

[quote name='MuseMatt' post='273507' date='Aug 31 2008, 09:08 AM']Btw, I think it might be on more places in the song he uses it if not the entire song! you can hear this around 3:27 as well[/quote] it isn't an effect its just the amp hes using

[quote name='simwells' post='273430' date='Aug 30 2008, 11:57 PM']Hi I'm after examples of the sounds the ODB-3 is capable of making, looking around at different pedals the favourite is currently the EHX Bass Big Muff, but considering the price and it's seemingly love or hate status on here. I'd actually like to hear some proper examples of non modified versions. There's gotta be a fair few around I just don't seem to be able to find them, so anyway help would be great![/quote] go with the bass big muff, you'll thank yourself later

sansamp would prolly get you close but it just sounds like generic ampeg tone, so get tubes and play loud!

buy a matamp

[quote name='Finbar' post='270321' date='Aug 26 2008, 02:42 PM']Possibly, or I could be talking out of me arse. I'm pretty sure that the effects loop is buffered though, and in bypass mode it is actually a true bypass? I haven't really read up on it huge amounts! [/quote] blend loops have to be buffered to avoid it just feeding back

check out the ocular phantasm on www.myspace.com/eyepedals might be what your after can stick it in a wah enclosure to.

[quote name='tayste_2000' post='270181' date='Aug 26 2008, 12:54 PM']That was another option buy both the 2x15's and get IEM but it seemed excessive [/quote] would you even be able to hear the IEM with the matamps cranked?

[quote name='DHA' post='268997' date='Aug 24 2008, 06:27 PM']Hi, Our rep in the USA (a bass player) has requested a bass version of our "Fuzzy Feeling" Ge transistor fuzz. So here it is with the design mods for an improved low frequency response. [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/DHA-Fuzzy-Feeling-Bass-Boutique-Germanium-Fuzz-effect_W0QQitemZ310077860092QQihZ021QQcategoryZ22669QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/DHA-Fuzzy-Feeling-Ba...1QQcmdZViewItem[/url] It is available from us in the UK as of today. Dave[/quote] should do an npn one ;< is it based on an mkII to?

[quote name='ste_m3' post='263998' date='Aug 17 2008, 04:10 PM']Id say, Yes.[/quote] tube power amp distortion > solid state, solid state distortion sounds like balls

[quote name='tayste_2000' post='266869' date='Aug 21 2008, 10:08 AM']Yeah I did but it's not loud enough for me, well it might be with 2 2x15's but the Mesa is just way louder and way cleaner for longer that's not to say I won't be buying one.[/quote] not loud enough? do your band play jet engines?

i don't think any boss pedals are true bypass, alot of the cheaper ones have terrible buffered bypasses

[quote name='tayste_2000' post='265590' date='Aug 19 2008, 03:41 PM']I'm just about to order 2 [/quote] you played their new bass head? i came a little when i first turned it on, its how bass is meant to sound ;(

[quote name='tayste_2000' post='265521' date='Aug 19 2008, 02:13 PM']Matamp 2x15 - awesome cab and about £400 cheaper than the Bergs, and all the custom options you could ever want. It's 50kg's but thats about the same as the Berg. www.matamp.com give them a call[/quote] word i've got mine on the way.

[quote name='bobbass4k' post='264305' date='Aug 18 2008, 02:21 AM']but was informed by your own bassmankev that the mods suck most of the low end out (this has now been confirmed by the guy who did the mods). Cheers[/quote] if it still sounds good to you and sits well in your band mix don't worry about it! it's all about what sounds good to you not what someone else tells you sounds good, that is unless you have really bad taste.

get a matamp one, its orange the way they were meant to be.

haha someones messed up the bridge, i think the g string is normally on the neck
