The discumbobulator definitley isn't for you, it's subtle, smooth and transparent, I loved mine, but it can't do dripping wet funk

[quote name='steve' post='838182' date='May 15 2010, 03:10 PM']I believe Josh Homme played guitar through a bass amp with Kyuss, don't know the specific brands (prolly not a Squier tho , not that there's anything wrong with them particularly)[/quote] [kyuss nerd] Yea, He used his Ovation Ultra Hard Body GP's pretty much exclusivey once kyuss got going, and he played through bass amps quite a lot because they played in C standard and it just sounded better. Not sure about the amps, but Scott reeder and Nick oliveri used Sunn's and Ampegs so I imagine he used those at some point [/kyuss nerd] To actually answer the wuestion, I play my guitar through my bass rig all the time and it sounds great.

Got this from Higgie a while back, it's a great compressor, but I've just no use for one. For the uninitiated this is a tuned Orange Squeezer (vintage compressor) clone. It was modded for better bass response by Bongo (TB user) when Tayste sent it to him to review, which can be found [url="http://ovnilab.com/reviews/pulpmill.shtml"]here[/url] Crappy Pics: I'll let it go for [s][b]£75 Posted[/b][/s] [b]SOLD[/b] Also putting my Seek Trem up, it's a brilliant pedal but it just won't get used. No box unfortunately but it'll be packed very carefully and comes with the authentic ZVex Rag (yea, i don't know either). It's going up for [s][b]£130 posted[/b][/s]. [b]SOLD[/b] Trades considered, hit me up with ideas -
Definitley put me down, I'll either be in york or canterbury

I ran out of patch cables, I think the power cables may have ethnically cleansed them because I'm missing like 10 (someone please sell me some) I'll probably move the pulp mill on, I should really have learnt my lesson that I don't need a compressor, but I just enjoy being poor too much. Although, with the trim pots maxxed out it does a very nice fuzz, but I figured it's probably not good for it so I didn't leave it there for too long.

Ideally: Korg Pitchblack (why didn't I get one of these sooner?) -> Digitech XP-1000 -> Boss OC-2 -> Human Gear Animato -> ZVEX Mastotron -> Lovetone Meatball (with exp. Pedal) -> HBE Psilocybe -> Boss DD-20 5 of which I already own, so I'm halfway to pedal perfection (although my perfect board stretches on beyond the reach of human comprehension and is powered by a million dying black holes)

The effects loops are generally meant for line level effects (i.e rackmount stuff) stompboxes should generally go in between the bass and amp

If you set it just right it goes all stuttery and sounds like almost exactly like birds, put it through a delay and it sounds just beautiful
-
Don't do it man! You'll regret it But if you do decide to split it, I'll probably by the discumbobulator back off you, I miss the bird song she makes in a feedback loop.......

All my name are named after my special lady friend at the time (which I thought was a musicians standard, but apparently not), my main spector is called Elli, my first bass (now my fretless) is Kerry, and my guitar is Anna. Only trouble with that convention is I need to have a girlfriend to get a new guitar, oh the humanity........

Go directly to BOSS OC-2, do not pass go, do not collect £200

It annoys me when people consider effects as only existing to cover up bad playing. For me, I don't consider effects as hiding or messing with the bass sound, I create basslines with effects, I never think "oh, that bassline sounds kind of weak, I'll play it with a phaser, that'll make it sound better". I think "I want this part to of the song to have phaser on it" Or I'll hum a part in my head as "doo-do-dah-doo-do-dah" with the dah bits 2 octaves up from the doo-do bits. I can't do that on my bass so I go to my whammy pedal. Basically I use my pedals to make sounds that I want to make but my bass can't, I consider them as extensions of the instrument I'll stop ranting now

Oceansize - Savant, the strings at the end always surprise me, even after the 100'th time i've listened to it -
Tis a phaser my good man -
godDAMN it, full valve trace about 20 miles from my doorstep for a damn good price. I'm gonna go drink some scotch to make myself feel better
-
depends what you're using it for, if you want to add low end to a distortion, out it after the distortion, if you want to affect the overall sound going to your amp, put it at the end, if you want to isolate one frequency (useful for electronic sort of basslines) put it at the start, or just find where sounds best.

That actually looks really cool, and very well built, probably sounds like an overweight pigeon dropping out of the sky and landing in angry hornets nest and it'll probably break the first time you try and play it hard (how dense can a broom handle be?), but it's a cool idea

[quote name='cheddatom' post='783619' date='Mar 23 2010, 04:13 PM']I would have thought the FF would destroy your low end. Can you do sound clips?[/quote] Doesn't mean it's not fun, I played with one and it reminded me of the first time i used a whammy ( i spent about 10 minutes just making woo-woo noises), I might buy one if i've got some cash to throw around

Embrace instrumentalism, just like a guitarist can be replaced by a distortion and an octave pedal, a singer can be replace be some nice melodies and expressive playing
