Ant Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Tried a rat tail with two dist settings? Set one low and one high Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibob Posted March 27, 2013 Author Share Posted March 27, 2013 Yeah Rat with a 2nd od is what I'm running. Although might not work in a smaller enclosure (you'd want 2 switches). Could do a Dark Driving with a boost, have it always on but 1 switch for boost as you said. Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazWills Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 [indent=1]"full on" is why i got the rat tail! My BB preamp does me for a 'nice' OD, and I have a TFR for fuzz - but I needed a NASTY distortion, so RT for the win I think![/indent] [indent=1]I officially need a bigger pedal board! won a nice analog CE-5 chorus on the 'bay this week too [/indent] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbass4k Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Got Kev's and formerly Shep's Grey Stache on the way, If I can snag a cheap Mastotron too I think my dirt section might finally be complete, until I get the urge to replace the Turbo Rat with a Rat Tail of course...

Sibob Posted March 29, 2013 Author Share Posted March 29, 2013 The Stache sounds even better when getting pushed by other stuff too. So get that Demon King feedback pushing the Stache BDPG into Stache is the one! Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plunkrock Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 I can see me getting a BDPG at some point in my life, was imagining it at the end of my signal though. Need to put a cap on the spending just now though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazWills Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) well, rather quicker than I'd expected, my Quint (from Jaws) Rat Tail has shipped... now for the daily (hourly!) checking of the UPS website Edited April 3, 2013 by GazWills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plunkrock Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Looks sweet man! USPS tracking drove me up the wall, said my package was stuck in one place in the US, sent an email to enquire and what should show up at my door 10 minutes later?

danweb22 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 My new Grey Stache with extra sustain mode (bought from Joe's Pedals) [attachment=131949:GreyStachstd.jpg] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plunkrock Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Here are mine (one will be familiar), had a brief time with a Rat Tail but it didn't really suit my band so much so traded for the Grey Stache to provide occasional craziness. I *love* the Demon King Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plunkrock Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Had a band practice last night and it looks like this Grey Stache could become a regular feature at Bass Chat as I've had to put it in the [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/204723-sfx-micro-thumpinator-and-fuzzrocious-grey-stache/"]classifieds[/url]! I love it for taking it up to the next level but it didn't go down so well with my mates and after trying a few settings it was obvious it wasn't going to work out. I'd love to keep it but I can't really afford to have it just for noodling around in the house. I have truly sacrificed myself to the Demon King though, I'm flogging all my pedals and rocking the DK and a tuner! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PauBass Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Nice pedal and really good comments I'm reading about them. Quick question: Is there the option of having them with an added blend knob? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ant Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 [indent=1]i dont think you'd need one to be honest! not on the rat tail anyway, i mean, you can set it for sounds that have less low end, but there is plenty of bottom on tap! sounds amazing.[/indent] [indent=1]but shoot Ry an email (or tweet @fuzzrocious) and im sure he'll let you know right away.[/indent] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plunkrock Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 I've had the Rat Tail, Green Stache and Demon King and haven't found any of them to be lacking low end. That said, I am thinking about ordering a customised Demon King and would probably get a clean blend added just for kicks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ant Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 ahh yeah! makes total sense! i like the high/low clipping knobs on the rat tail, roll them back to reduce clipping on the high and/or low notes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
