Basszilla Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 Great fuzz. I had the mid switch installed and it sounds fantastic either way. It sounds amazing on both guitar and bass. Loads of low end and vast amounts of fuzz on tap. The tone pot is versatile, sweeping from thick and dark to biting and bright and everything in between. There is a slight scratch on the unit from moving around my pedal board, but other than that it is in great nick. £75 delivered is a fair price for a top pedal. Cheers Tim
Basszilla Posted March 18, 2008 Author Posted March 18, 2008 Cheers Roady You're right it is a nice pedal, i'm still considering whether to hold on to it or not! It really sounds great on guitar as well.
Higgie Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 I'm really seriously considering this...Not sure I've got the cash to splash though!
Biggsy Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 (edited) I'm enjoying the one I bought off Kev; The best thing about it IMO is how flexible it is, and how responsive it is to tweaks, even without the 'mid mod'. Appears to work well with active basses as well, which was a surprise. Edited March 18, 2008 by Biggsy
umcoo Posted March 18, 2008 Posted March 18, 2008 I kinda want one of these again. Why do I always want the effects that I have sold? What's wrong with me?! Apologies for hijack, have a bump!
dandini Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 How does this sound in comparison to something from EHX. Im keen on getting some distortion in my sound but dont want to lose bottom end. Ive just brought a ODB-3 off here and wanna add a few others into the chain to see what I like. Cheers
Kev Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 odb-3 keeps more low end obviously, as it has a blend pot, but this thing beats anything ehx have to offer distortion wise, much more out of control than a big muff will ever be

Its a thick fuzz anyway, rather than an overdrive. Theres some soundclips of it on bass here [url="http://wrenandcuff.com/pickled_bass.html"]http://wrenandcuff.com/pickled_bass.html[/url] The mid switch basically removes the mid-scoop, giving you another range of sounds. I still prefer mine with the scoop, but its nice to have the option of versatility. Definately recommended from me.

thisnameistaken Posted March 28, 2008 Posted March 28, 2008 Is this pedal still for sale? I'm currently using a US reissue Muff + a Boss LS-2 to blend it, which sounds great but takes up a lot of pedalboard. If I like this one I can make room for even more pedals!
Basszilla Posted March 29, 2008 Author Posted March 29, 2008 (edited) I'm gonna hold onto this guys. It's a great pedal, sounds fantastic. Edited March 29, 2008 by Basszilla
thisnameistaken Posted March 29, 2008 Posted March 29, 2008 Very wise. Give me a poke if you do decide to sell it.
