It may be a tired idea, but i would love to see steve harris do something along these lines!

the LBM has a better low end than most of the other muffs. another option if you want a muff sound is to try the Metal muff (with top boost - rather than any of the smaller ones!) as it has an eq section on it. from other forums, i see that the english muffn is a opopular choice among bass players as it uses valves for the distortion. for another option, contact our very own Dave Hall (DHA) who makes his own popular line of valve-based effects.

A great guy to buy from - my echohead arrived in tip top condition and faster than an amir khan knockout!

they're always available on ebay!

a Westone Concord! Cost me £50, my first experience of bass IIRC i sold it a few years later for £75

anyhting by Napalm Death.... although we found that "Corpse grinder" ( a touching love story about necrophilia) usually did the trick!

DOes anyone have any links to where i could pick one up at a reasonable cost?

Nice bass I liked Lush Puppies but then again so did the Lush Puppies [url="http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=134379635"]<a href="http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fusea...endid=134379635" target="_blank">http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fusea...endid=134379635[/url]</a> [/quote] didn't know Alice Cooper played bass!

..must stop dribbling!

you can't go wrong with the SR16 as mentioned before. i got one for £20 and i think it's probably one of the best machines out there for the price

probably one of the most underrated players of our time!

i also have one of the larger ones which gets use with the guitar, but the pocket muff really cuts through both with an amp (BXR300) and straight DI to PA. For the money it'll be hard to beat!

[quote name='dangerboy' post='76543' date='Oct 19 2007, 02:40 PM']My only piece of definitive advice, is don't try a BOSS HM-2![/quote] why is that mate? for a full on fuzzy distortion, it is hard to beat. there is absolutely no bass loss, and even boost available!

that's right - straight out of the box it's perfect. one of my pupils has one, and i have had to severely resist getting hold of one!! initialy i was worried it was a MIM until i played it plugged in!

the balance of the pickups on these is perfect, plus the electronics are wired as two volumes, so even then it wouldn't really be an issue anyway!

try the EHX pocket metal muff- it works really well on bass. gets almost exactly that Cliff fuzz sound. you can find them on the bay for around £35 new, and they are only the size of an mxr pedal!
