I tired the bassdrive it's erm............. in a word crap I found it very unimpressive and all in all it's just a TS Clone very very overpriced in my humble opinion

I've not, but I wonder how/if it really works?[/quote] Heard soundclips of it working and know people that have sold Octron's for them and the only reason you would sell a lush sounding analog octave for the sterile digital one is tracking from what I've heard it goes down to low b and can handle chords and I've heard these claims from a hell of a lot of people.

Just to put the Micro Pog above the Whammy it is polyphonic so it can handle chords and the tracking is better than a whammy but they both has a similar digitally tone (yuk)

I think best for the money now adays is a micro pog has all the features a bassist needs wouldn't really go the Akai route. In saying that I have an octron 2 coming for my octave needs both up and down

What ever Kev decides is fair this week

[quote name='Hamster' post='118463' date='Jan 11 2008, 12:47 PM']There's quite a few pedals that give an octave up - digitech whammy and EBS octobass off the top of my head. Hamster[/quote] EBS doesn't do octave up

To me so far there is no better filter for playing with a band than the Boomstick Bottom Feeder [url="http://www.tonefactor.com/proddetail.php?prod=bottomfeeder"]http://www.tonefactor.com/proddetail.php?prod=bottomfeeder[/url] If anyone disagrees with me they are just wrong

[quote name='john_the_bass' post='118437' date='Jan 11 2008, 11:54 AM']are they ABS plastic or are they something like hexboard (like the flightcase warehouse ones?)?[/quote] Plywood so lighter than the hex and about as strong, they don't bend at all like hexboard can.

Bassballs is two filters that move in opposite directions creating a vowel/vocal effect and you can have this with or with out fuzz. My overall opinion of it is low and I would recommend looking at anything else. There are no analog units that do a clean octave up all the others are digital and the following will do that, EHX Pog, Hog, Micro Pog, Digitech Whammy 4 (Plus previous models) that pretty much covers the mass produced units. Spring king will do that it has the kick button for that exact purpose but doesn't seem it would be all that useful its not a great pedal for anything else

I'm trying to get in tocuh with the guy to make sure it's ok to give out his number. Cost depends on what you have one of mine has a built in patch bay the the lid has a second lid for all the cables and everything so this was more expensive than my other one but both are over a year old so his costs will have increased.

No difference really the Tone Truck is bigger for less money it costs slight more than the PT Jr but is pretty much the size of a PT2 I have to admit I wish I'd bought them myself before I had cases made for the Jr's

[quote name='spree' post='116949' date='Jan 9 2008, 12:51 PM']Tayste, are your band and noise boards custom or can they be bought? If so, where?[/quote] The boards are Pedaltrain Jr's but the cases are custom made but his turn around time can vary but I can put you in touch if you want one made. Cheers

[quote name='Higgie' post='116958' date='Jan 9 2008, 12:58 PM']Boss DD-5, Boss TR-2, Custom looper/Amp switch maybe? MXR micro amp is the white one that is upside down, and then a russian big muff at the end[/quote] Agreed but could be a DD-6

Seems to be a pedalboard missing from these shots

[quote name='dlloyd' post='116317' date='Jan 8 2008, 04:36 PM']DSD-3 has been suggested. [/quote] Yeah could be and would be rare enough for me to get wrong

[quote name='Toasted' post='116187' date='Jan 8 2008, 01:42 PM']The one tayste said was an NS-2 is one of the RV pedals. But I didn't know the double drive, so we're quits.[/quote] Sad that because I have a RV pedal it looked white to me in that pic oh well. The double drive might be an XXL but it's defo a Tech 21 Pedal from the knobs

Going this way -> Whammy 4 - Snarling Dogs Bootzilla Wah - Boss PW-10 - Boss TU-2 - Hughes and Kettner Tube factor (Above it not plugged in is a Dulop Crybaby or Volume pedal but most likely a Crybaby) - EHX Deuluxe Electric Mistress - Tech 21 Double Drive Boss Case - > LS-2 - BD-2 - SD-2 - NS-2 - BF-2 - PH-2/3 Also who cares cos it's a guitarist
