Black Coffee Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Anyone tried one of these ? Are they as easy to stop falling off as they look ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudewheresmybass Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 I have one. It sounds great on its own, but for me got lost in the mix, when using the fuzz. It's a great concept- it's good to see a company really pushing the boundaries, and trying to create something new and different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannybuoy Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 I wouldn't recommend it, I thought it sounded pretty bad and the rocking action was terrible, very hard to get a smooth gradual sweep out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bo0tsy Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 EHX also sell 'cradles' for their range of 'Next Step' pedals so that you can fix them to your pedal board (and it stops the pedal from sliding about). I don't have the EHX Bass Wah, but have the EHX Talking Pedal which also had built in fuzz. Have to admit I wasn't very impressed with it. Whilst the rocking motion worked okay for me, the fuzz sounded very thin and tinny. I swapped the pedal out with the Talking Machine, which is much superior.

dudewheresmybass Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 I have to say that I had no issues with the movement of the pedal, and gradual sweeps a la cliff weren't unacheivable. If you're playing in a bedroom, or on your own this a good pedal, but if you're in a band........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FretNoMore Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 (edited) Tried one and returned it the same day ... didn't like the sound - which may be a matter of taste - and found it near impossible to get a smooth control of the effect. Depending on your floor surface it may also move around. All in all a bad design in my opinion, looks cool on paper but didn't work in real life for me.
