Nice its caused some healthy debate.

Personally, I agree in not blending if its the wrong pedal. But I highly doubt there is something I can get off the shelf that does what I want in one package. Not necessarily one pedal that has built in blending will sound like the one you want etc etc, and as has been said that is a case of double standards. What would you do if the Assmaster had no clean blend, there is no telling that the next one or the next has the same drive sound you want.

Blending is one tool in the box, among many.

But this is all part of the right tool for the right job.

I agree with shep, it is necessary to blend to create certain sounds.

May I present Steuart Liebig - an underground master of intricate, ambient and downright interesting bass-craft.
Steuart is a solo and band performer who, for the last 20 or so years, has released countless solo recordings as well as work with the who's who of the avant jazz community. His approach to using the bass is so unique that it has to be heard to be believed.

I'd like to introduce you to the dudes behind the very awesome Mantic Conceptual - L. Ray & C. Fredi!

Mantic Conceptual, while still pretty new to the boutique effects world, have been making some real noise of late! Their rugged, industrial looking pedals have started appearing on the boards of some big names and the who's who of pedal users - Juan Alderete, Jonathan Hischkte, and Nick Reinhart to name but a few.

Check out what the boys had to say!

May I present Jamie Stillman, the main man behind EarthQuaker Devices!

Jamie was awesome enough to spare me a little time to answer my questions about his background, his pedals, and EarthQuaker as a company.

Check out what he had to say!

Si Francis is a session bass player, multi-instrumentalist and producer.
While known for working with a number or acts, such as The Pierces, David's Lyre, and Diagrams, Si is best known for taking his pedal-heavy antics on tour with the very talented Ellie Goulding!
I caught up with Si recently on the current Ellie Goulding tour and he was kind enough to talk about his live set up. Check it out...

I am very happy to present the very talented Ron Petzke of Bongripper fame. A man known for his serious, low, doomy tone, and a beast of a rig!

Ron also knows his gear. He's moved through setups of various sizes, and road tested his fair share of amps and cabs. Ron was cool enough to spend some time going into great detail over the setup that he's currently rocking.

Check out what he had to say...

Chris Hargreaves (aka. Fatty Bassman) was the very first dude that I interviewed for this blog. It's where it all began. And what a dude Chris is.

Since that interview I've stayed in touch with Chris, and his music, and been to see him perform a couple of times too. I couldn't make the local(ish) dates on the recent Submotion Tour, but managed to catch up with him at an Alex Clare show and chat about the changes to his setup since we first spoke.
