  1. Hi Folks,

    I have just sold my Fuzzrocious Rat King pedal as It was not the sound I hoped for!
    I am looking for another pedal that will growl through the music if you know what I mean?!

    I am hoping someone can recommend the Tech 21 Sansamp Bass VT?
    I have been thinking about this or the Ashdown Nate Mendell pedal!

    If anyone has either for sale or can recommend, give me a shout.

    Cheers
    Steve

    Just back from a long day of practise, here's my short verdict on the Rat King for you face19820!

    It's amazing! I actually think it sounds just a little bit better then my Rat Tail (which was already amazing!)
    It's got a great amount of volume on it which is great, when I dialled in the right settings I could get a seriously big Young Widows/Russian Circles type sound which is what you want from your Rat!
    The part that blew my mind was how good a low-ish setting into my Bass Big Muff (which can sound a bit stale on it's own) and then through my 2x15, made the practise room shutter outside rattle, this thing is a serious piece of kit!
    Getting the Rat King was a great decision!

    This is good news! Mine arrived today and it looks the part.
    Cannot wait to get to rehearsals on Monday and get it all setup with my new head.
    Monday is normally a sh*t day. Not this Monday however.

    I am glad to hear this all as it was a expensive piece of kit,but so worth it.

    Will give you my verdict!

    I've just been playing mine on a crappy Peavey combo but it sounds incredible, I'll be at practise with my proper rig tomorrow, so I'll let you know exactly how it sounds, so far, the second distortion setting is exactly what I need!

    Nice one dude. I won't be able to use my rig etc until Monday, so be to hear how awesome it is!

    His sound is truly incredible, it's just the Chuck Dukowski sound on steroids

    I was listening to Converge earlier, and that combo's got Nate Newton written all over it! You'll be deaf come Monday :lol:

    haha! Buzzin.

    My band mates can finally get annoyed at how loud the sound is!

    If the audience hurt after our set I will be happy.

    Ah man, that Rat King's gonna make the ODB3 look like a joke pedal! :-D

    I have a TB500 arriving today and the pedal should be here tomorrow!!

    I am buzzing out my face!! I will hurt teeth with this sound at nexts weeks gig.

    As a ritual, burn your ODB-3 and dance around the fire holding your Rat King above your head

    That sh*t is burned at the stake dude!

    Also, order from Joes Pedals, no custom jobs with it, but my god, the delivery time, it arrived at my house in Ireland in less then 24 hours, unreal!

    I ordered at 6pm today, the latching from Joes. Fingers crossed here by Saturday man.

    Excited as hell.

  10. Hey guys,

    I am new to the Fuzzrocious range and wondering if I am better with a momentary or latching pedal. This applies to the new Rat King that Joes pedals are selling. Want to make sure i get the right one! Playing hardcore/metal style music.

    Cheers.

  11. Cheers again everyone.

    Have an idea that the Fuzzrocious rat tail is my weapon of choice, however getting one at a decent price may prove tricky. My second choice would be the ashdown lomenzo, followed by the mesa boogie flux. Anyone looking to trade plus cash etc please drop me a message. Not really sure how many people would really be looking for a boss pedal though to be honest!!

  12. Thank you very much for the responses everyone,much appreciated.
    I play in a hardcore punk band,normal tuning, orange t500 with Fender usa P-bass. Think bands like the bronx and sick of it all.
    I feel that the odb-3 is not aggressive enough and have found myself adjusting the pedal sounds a lot and never being that happy!
    Anyone play/played in these types if bands and used distortion pedals?

    Cheers.

  13. Hi Guys,

    Just a general bit of general opinions if anyone has a minute.

    Just wondering what type of distortion pedals (If any) you guys use?

    I am hooked up with the classic Boss odb-3, but looking for something either a bit more powerful or with a different tone all together.
    I know different tone would normally be a random thing to say for distortion related noises, but any opinions much appreciated.

    Ashdown have released a 'nate mendell' signature distortion pedal, but no idea what it's like or even worth looking into?

    Cheers again.

    Steve.

  14. Bought a orange T500 from Dave. Glad i joined BC as I was looking for one of these for a while now at a decent price.
    Great guy to deal with and had the head sent out via courier right away. Delivery due Thursday, but have absolutely no reason to wait for
    delivery to leave feedback as any issues will be out of his control!

    Cheers again mate.
