[b]Idiotbox Blower Box £SOLD[/b]

Rat clone with great bass retention and [b]light up eyes[/b]! Bought this direct from Idiotbox a few months ago, light use around the home and one rehearsal so it's as new apart from velcro on the bottom. Unfortunately I used the box it came in for another pedal I sold so no longer have that.

[b]Smallsound/Bigsound Team Awesome! Fuzz Machine £SOLD[/b]

Very versatile fuzz pedal, bought this from a nice chap from the US on talkbass.com, it's got some really nice limited edition artwork with [b]light up eyes[/b]! It's in great condition with velcro on the bottom.

[b]Malekko Germanium B:assmaster £SOLD[/b]

Picked this up on here recently, handily rehoused in a smaller encolsure by Nando FX (original box not shown but also comes with it, message me if you want a pic). Had a faulty footswitch when I got it which I have replaced, put in a couple of jumper cables on the bottom of the PCB to make sure a couple of the connections were solid, I've put up a photo of this, works great and not had a problem with it since. No light up eyes.

The Blower Box is the best RAT made for bass, and the TAFM is the finest bass fuzz to have ever been created. These shouldn't hang around long!

See... Now I want to keep them!

Nah, amazing pedals but unfortunately in need of the cash! The B:assmaster is no slouch either, the TAFM covers a lot of ground but it can't pull off that sound! Cheers Dan

I'm tempted by both fuzzes! I'll be spending my lunch youtubing clips to try to decide

Well, if it helps, I have a few thoughts on the comparison of the two:

The TAFM is much more versatile, when I first got it I was using it after the Blower Box using the blend to mix the aggressive Rat sound with some thick fuzz but more recently I've been using it as a sort of slightly fuzzy dirty boost into a BB pre! Also, Dannybuoy pointed out to me that you can turn off the buffer on the clean signal with a couple of switches inside the unit, which gives even more sounds, I really dig the buffer off for the slightly lighter fuzz at the start of the chain. Also, light up eyes.

The B:assmaster simply sounds awesome, this video had me sold:

In short, if I was using one single pedal I'd probably take the B:assmaster, but the TAFM lets you get creative!

Ooooh! Is the B:Assmaster germanium or silicon pal?

This is the germanium version

I believe someone else on here is selling a silicon one, spoiled for choice at basschat!

I'm even tempted by the TAFM, because mine doesn't have light up eyes!

Marketing genius! People buying things they already have for light up eyes!

I jest, but I did actually pay quite a lot to get this particular one from the US rather than getting one without light up eyes more locally

[plunkrock]

B:assmaster is sold pending payment!

[plunkrock]

Dropped the prices on the other two

[plunkrock]

TAFM sold pending payment, just leaves the Blower Box, which I kind of expected to be the first to go!

[dannybuoy]

Perhaps posting a link to the public jizzfest over this pedal on Talkbass may help!
