I don't think they particularly lit many peoples fires. The problem I had with them, on a few of the models, is the proximity of the footswitch to the knobs. The bearded lady fuzz for example, stupid close, totally not a gigable pedal. Si

They're really easy and cheap to make if you know your way around a drill and a soldering iron. 1590a enclosures can be fiddly though. Si

[quote name='Tuco' timestamp='1422828081' post='2677340'] Just for the sake of clarity "weedy" was referring to the POG's octave up. [/quote] Yup, no worries, understood I'm not a fan of analogue octave ups, as mentioned, the inherent added distortion does nothing for me. [quote] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Someone clever needs to build a unit with an oc-2 style analogue octave down, but with a POG type digital octave up. That would sell! [/quote] [/font][/color] [font="helvetica, arial, sans-serif"][color="#282828"]This might break the internet if created! . I'd buy one in an instant. If someone had the inclination, rehousing an OC2 and a POG, with only the controls for the POGs up octave could be doable. Wouldn't be small though.[/color][/font] [font="helvetica, arial, sans-serif"][color="#282828"]Si[/color][/font]

[quote name='Tuco' timestamp='1422821777' post='2677213'] No diss to you Si but I found the POG to sound weedy and real artificial with a noticable latency... Horses/courses. Peace. [/quote] None taken All octave ups sound artificial, but to my ears, the POG sounds the least of all of them (Whammy aside). Weedy, hmmm, not sure about that, but then I don't think I'd want anything that overpowers the original signal?! Depends on the application I guess . The low octave is definitely weedy compared to the OC2. Boyo from Royal Blood gets a decent sound from them (albeit POG 2 rather than Micro POG). Si

[quote name='paulo m' timestamp='1422777508' post='2676586'] There is a immaculate first year production Oc2 on E Bay..Now!!! its in japan but nothing sounds like them..& worth the dosh...I.M.O [/quote] Ooof, that is mint!! http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=271744304686 If I was still in my OC-2 buying phase, that'd be a catch . I'm down to four though! Si

Checkout the T1M modded POG, you can buy direct, with him adding the mod for you. Gives you two presets, one per footswitch. IMO, the POG is the best octave up out there, and the octave down is good, but not on par with the OC2, which is the only reason I don't have a T1M modded one. http://this1smyne.com/shop/micropogpresetmod/ Si

I'll be there on the Saturday, then playing the Jazz Cafe in the evening.......all with a pretty fresh new sleeve tattoo started :-P Be gentle! Very much looking forward to Divinity! Si

[quote name='Horizontalste' timestamp='1422364796' post='2671626'] I have no beef with the looks! Cracking value for money. [/quote] That's a beauty! I like my sunburst, but a white one would be cool! Si

[quote name='martin8708' timestamp='1422222043' post='2670109'] A '69 CAR refin with Simon's fretless neck on it . Nice neck Simon , straight as an arrow. [/quote] Wow that looks great!! Glad the neck is being put to good use! Cheers Si

I'd rather use a 3leaf Enabler (smaller footprint) and a drive pedal of my choice. Si

Just get two OC-2s......BOOM....SOLVED Si

Not really. A few people have cloned it as one-offs, but not added features. There's a few 'synth' mods you can make to it. The afformentioned 3Leaf Octavbre gets about 90% of the way there I think, with the synthy direct-less setting on another footswitch, I've not tried the Octavbre, but videos to me sound a little less subby than the OC-2 Si

NAMM = Not Available, Maybe May lol

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1422053360' post='2668350'] I'm not really a five-string person, but as I might need one now and then, I was seriously considering this: [url="http://www.dawsons.co.uk/squier-vintage-modified-precision-bass-v-olympic-white"]http://www.dawsons.co.uk/squier-vintage-modified-precision-bass-v-olympic-white[/url] [/quote] That would be my second choice after the Yamaha BB Si

Different pedal bud, the MXR Bass Overdrive has been out for a while, this Bass Distortion was just announced at NAMM. The pedal was designed with Ryan from Fuzzrocious and will probably hit UK stores around March from what I hear. Si
