Earthquaker Devices Monarch (Orange valvey overdrive/distortion) WITHDRAWN FOR NOW :) £100

[umcoo]

Hi all,

Having a shuffle of my pedals and this one is next to go. I've had this pedal since about February this year and it is in excellent condition. For those who don't know what it is, it is a pedal designed to emulate a 70's Orange amp so it has a really nice overdrive sound which can get pretty heavy with the gain turned all the way up. There's not much around about using these on bass but it keeps the low end just fine and the bass and treble EQ section add a great amount of tonal range.

I wrote a quick review of it when I first picked it up which is at... [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/198773-earthquaker-devices-monarch-a-quick-review/"]http://basschat.co.u...a-quick-review/[/url]

Looking for £100 posted. This cost me just over £130 from guitar guitar not long ago.

Here's a few pics, but anything you want to know, please ask!

Thanks

Are you after anything trade-wise?

[umcoo]

Hi Bob,

Not particularly, I'm after either Wren and Cuff Tall Font or a Phat Phuk B, so pretty specific I'm afraid

[BigBassBob]

Ah so I take it a Tri Pie 70 is out of the question?

[dannybuoy]

I've played with this very pedal and it's a great overdrive on bass! Similar to the SFT but the drive is more concentrated in the upper midrange and is less wooly.

[umcoo]

Sorry Bob, I saw you had that for sale, but I'm only after either two I mentioned.

Cheers Dan!

[dannybuoy]

Let me know if you'd be up for trading for my Cream Pie, which is pretty similar to the Phat Phuk!

[umcoo]

I'll have a think cheers Dan

Worth a try

Out of curiosity, is there any low end loss at all with the EQ controls at noon? I really love my Xotic BB but just recently I've been tempted to try something similar but with a different gain structure.

[umcoo]

After a quick play around, with EQ both at noon, there's no bass loss, and very slight treble boost. Obviously turning them clockwise after noon they increase accordingly

[umcoo]

Having second thoughts on this, so withdrawing it for the time being. Thanks all for interest so far!
