  1. Yeah you won't find them for that cheap anymore haha Si
  2. I'd say £90 is pretty cheap for a new pedal?! lol Si
  3. With fuzzes, often stacking 2 overly saturated effects will create an overly compressed sound, which doesn't suit many people. You might find that stacking two Russian Tall Fonts at lower gain settings will achieve a tone different to one Tall Russian at a higher gain setting. Personally, I find it more fun stacking different pedals, mix & match Si
  4. I'll be along on Sunday nice and early to catch mr Steve Lawson, looking forward to it! Si
  5. Obviously people can spend what they want on whatever gear they want, however I would prefer to spend more money on a quality hand-built pedal from a family business over x-amount to a mass produced, Chinese factory built That's in no way a snobby 'I only buy boutique' (I love my Boss stuff, but just saying in this instance And the nice thing, want more bass? Contact Ryan and ask if he can do that for you Si
  6. The OCD/Demon is a different circuit to all the above that you own, as such, you will inherently find a different tone, however how different that tone is can often depend on your ears. I know guys who can tell the difference between OCD versions, and guys who can't tell the difference between a Big Muff & Tubescreamer. Si
  7. Two Pogs and two Harmonists........serious pitch-shifting going on! Love it Si
  8. I'd suggest leaving it as it is (they're kinda 'vintage' now), and buy a reissue to gig with (which has an LED) Si
  9. [quote name='bakerster135' timestamp='1393237200' post='2377555'] Lovely stuff! I assume it can get pretty high gain as well? Have you been able to get anywhere near the scooped B3K-type tone from it as well at all? Tom's stuff's already on my board, but I'm looking to cover as many dirt tones with as few dirt boxes as possible! Thanks Si [/quote] It's not mega high-gain, but then I don't need it to be. I simply needed 2 channels of gain in as smaller a footprint as possible. Did you see the video demo I did for the 66 on youtube? Not had it sounding like a B3K, but then I'm not a fan of the B3K/B7K tone, so that's fine by me Si
  10. [quote name='bakerster135' timestamp='1393180372' post='2377060'] Si, may be a bad comparison, but can you get sounds similar to an OCD/Demon from the 66 Knightfall? [/quote] They're all a very similar circuit, albeit with some component/architectural changes, and with the 66, some significant feature additions. I'm currently running my 66 with Germaniums in channel 1 and LEDs in channel 2, the OCD circuit, same as the DEMON, is traditional MOSFET clipping. As such, the answer is yes, the 66 can get OCD/DEMON-esque tones, but a lot more to boot! Si
  11. I'm kinda liking this weekly change around [IMG]http://i58.tinypic.com/2je7jpf.jpg[/IMG] Si
  12. Buy an Xotic BB Bass Preamp Job done Si
  13. Meh. I actually find it really difficult to get excited about digital multi-fx. They're cool if you're not into pedals and you just want one box to do it all 'alright', but it just sounds very beige to me based on the videos. Maybe I can have a listen up close at the LBGS Si
  14. I've used TU-2s for years and years. No issues at all, perfectly great and built like a tank. Slightly dull dislay in bright sunshine, but it's the UK, so minimal negative effect there . Just got a Polytune mini to save space on a little board and it seems cool so far, some slight noise problems with it being a digital pedal in a power daisy chain. But changing it's position in the effects chain seems to have eleviated that. Si
  15. [quote name='Salt on your Bass?' timestamp='1392459334' post='2368950'] Ta da! Need Velcro and won't be Running it with the band fir a few weeks yet, apologies for the small pic! [/quote] And running it into a Meatbox, boom! Si
  16. [quote name='Salt on your Bass?' timestamp='1392428853' post='2368809'] Happy fuzz day! (for yesterday!) - took receipt of my Cog Grand Tarkin to celebrate, which is likely to bully my sfx micro fuzz of my board...... [/quote] Piccccs Si
  17. Keep them coming, 45mins left :-D Si Ps Title changed
  18. I guess we could organise a Fuzz day at some point Like the bass bashes, but just for Fuzz? haha Si
  19. I've decided today should forthwith be referred to as 'Happy Fuzz Day'! Please feel free to share your fuzz pedals, your fave fuzz builders etc on here, or on Instagram and Twitter using the hashtag #HappyFuzzDay Spread far and wide and lets get it trending Si

    [quote name='paul_5' timestamp='1392339813' post='2367708'] Finally got round to finishing the BB preamp and it's not disappointing in any way, shape or form. I was a little bit apprehensive about just a 2 band on a pre, but it's really well voiced and sounds great. [/quote] Yeah, I don't miss any mids on this pedal. Really nice. Sounds slightly different in the low end to the Xotic, but still great and very useable! Si
  21. And the other side is a Mantic Density Brute Si
  22. When I briefly had a Streamliner 900 to gig with, I found it really difficult to cut through in general. Switched back to Markbass and had no problems at all. Just sayin' Si
  23. [quote name='GazWills' timestamp='1392156068' post='2365520'] what a great band... and a lurvley drummer [/quote] Yup, lovely drummer! Si
