krispn Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 The SFT is a great pedal. It will open up some new tonal options and add tube bounce, some hair or a decent lump of dirt as you require:-) I've had one but had to shift it again due to needing a passport renewed last minute. I'd defo get one again should the finances see fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, Andyingram, I've run out of witty huntin' 'n' fishin puns! Edited April 19, 2010 by Bassnut62 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassnut62 Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 mine just arrived last week too and what a tasty pedal the SFT is. As you say, it oes exactly what all the reviews said - tube bounce, subtle hair or full dirt, very EQable, a lot like an Ampeg fliptop or at higher gain settings like a big Ampeg valve head with loads of punch. I've even been using it for recording direct into board - didn't bother taking my Bassman amp/cab. It is nicer thru the Bassman; but sitting in a recording I really don't think anyone would know that I wasn't using a nice tube amp. this pedal is very much worth the money IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bass_ennyday Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 [quote name='LukeFRC' post='780045' date='Mar 19 2010, 07:41 PM']i built my own SFT clone- its amazing. I've no idea what the others are but a +1 for a SFT (or approximation of one)[/quote] Can you judge how close the clone sounds to the original SFT pedal? Since the Catalinbread SFT ranks very high on my GAS-list i´m also considering building my own clone cause i like the idea building your own thing and save some money. So which layout did you use for the clone? That one from "madbean" on freestompboxes.org? Cheers & thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
