It's an A/DA Flanger clone with footswitchable harmonics and two rates.

EskimoBassist Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 (edited) OK I am a very long time reader, but this is my first post of my pedalboard. Please excuse the picture quality. MY PEDALBOARD: This was the setup which I used with ESKIMO SANDWICH last week to record our new EP. Chain: BASS> DI > BOSS BASS EQ GEB-7 > WOBO DOUBLE LOOPER > DUNLOP 105Q BASS WAH > KORG AX3000B > DI > AMP LOOP A> SEND > BOSS BASS OVERDRIVE ODB-3 > RETURN LOOP B> SEND > BOSS SUPER OCTAVE OC-3 > SOVTEK ELECTRO HARMONIX BIG MUFF > ZOOM ULTRA FUZZ UF-01 > RETURN The rather tastey Sovtek Muff is only currently on loan, note the USA Muff which usually fills it's place in the chain. Also I have sinced placed the Ultra Fuzz out of the loop, after the Wah, simply because it does not feedback into itself if it is placed inside the loop, which is its' current purpose, although admittedly it is a much nicer fuzz than the USA Muff *NOTE*: [i]The GEB-7 is only used for live performances to compensate for the output and EQ difference between my Fender Jazz and Epiphone Thunderbird[/i] And for further interest here are pictures of the rest of my gear I recorded with: Edited November 1, 2008 by EskimoBassist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aussiephoenix Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 [quote name='dudewheresmybass' post='316353' date='Oct 28 2008, 01:16 AM'][/quote] Dude, what do you think of that Bass big Muff? I used to have a russian BM, but apart from eating the low end, I felt it was near uncontrolable... I was curious about those new bass versions, but I have to say that the vid-demos I saw on them didnt do much for me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudewheresmybass Posted November 3, 2008 Author Share Posted November 3, 2008 aussie - i love it to pieces. the clean blended switch is the key here - the clean sounds level is fixed at around unity, and you add the fuzz over the top to taste using the volume control. A genius idea! the real joy of this pedal is that there is absolutely no bass loss. the manual describes the origin of the pedal as "the battle green russian muff optimised for bass guitar""(IIRC) the only problem i have found with it is that it isn't particularly keen on active instruments - shame really as i would dearly love to use it with my Razorback, but i think i need to spend some more time tweaking! TBH for the price (about the £50 mark online) it's an absolute bargain. hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussiephoenix Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Hey Dude, Yeah, I remember the Russian muff wasnt too keen on actives either. At the time I was looking for a new fuzz though (when I saw the Bass BM), I found another fuzz that blew my mind, the Earthbound Effects Supercollider which I'm currently waiting on... It's finished and coming my way this week. That pedal will complete my board, when I have it, I'll post some pics of the completed board.

joegarcia Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 I have a Russian muff which works fine with my active basses too. Pretty sure it doesn't suck low end either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheddatom Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Why not? What wah is it Kev? And what's that DOD-alike OD? Get a whammy for your octave, it'll be more fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 because its compeltly transparant, noiseless, and perfectly effective limiter for what i need, plastic case wont bother me as it will be always on so will never be stomped on, so why spend more? for comparison, the boss limiter colours the sound more than this, to my ears the behringer doesnt change tone whatsoever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheddatom Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Sounds cool. Do you not miss a wah? I couldn't live without a wah pedal. Maybe you should try an XP-100? I'd lend mine to you if you were closer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
