Some Fuzzrocious pedals have controllable feedback, the Demon King for example, excellent Overdrive/Distortion with a tuneable feedback on a momentary footswitch. Big pedal, however Ryan might be able to to incorporate it into the smaller Demon enclosure. Drop him an email *Note that this video has the Feedback on a latching switch instead of non-latching. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMqU0Wgbfak Si

Depends really, a 5 or 6 string obviously retains your string intervals, a 4 string in drop D moves your E string out of your traditional fingerboard patterns. Some people will find a 5 string more comfortable, some people will find a 4 in D more comfortable. Depends how good you are with fingerboard knowledge Si

Neat innards are easy with solid core wire, next to impossible with multi-core wire. Hate multi-core Si

[quote name='Thunderpaws' timestamp='1435820020' post='2812623'] I made the Monte Allums mod to my ODB3, did everything you describe in your first post here. It transformed the pedal into something much more usable and controllable. [/quote] Just had a listen to that mod, really does improve the pedal doesn't it!! Si

[quote name='roman_sub' timestamp='1435758222' post='2812173'] On our test rig, the tone difference was fairly clear - no problem telling the two pedals apart in a blind test. Taiwan one was a bit "ruder", and Japanese OctaveR had a sweeter mid-range (that may be for the reason described!). Both good in different applications. But then again we only tested 2, not 9 [/quote] I fully submit to your test rig, my tests were simply at gigs and 'in the field' Si

There's an OC-2 for sale in the Effects For Sale forum at the moment. Get that! Si

[quote] Many people would like to but you keep buying them all... GLWTS [/quote] Hey I sold 5 of my 9 . Released back into the wild [quote] Is there no label on the back? A friend and I did a side-by-side test of a Taiwan OC2 vs Japanese OC2 'octaver' and you could hear a difference IMO. Both good though [/quote] The only real difference I hear between the Taiwan/Japanese Octave & the earlier Japanese Octaver is that the OctaveR has a slight gain drop on the clean signal. I actually prefer how the OctaveR sits in a mix, however all OC2s sound great, even the Taiwan versions. [quote] [color=#000000]Ah, that may well be true, I was just going on other posts I’ve read here. This is the only one I’ve owned and it has the classic sub bass with -1 soloed that I was after from hearing others use them.[/color] [color=#000000]No label on the back – it must have been the victim of Velcro.[/color] [/quote] If you open up the battery compartment, there may well still be the serial number, which you can decode here: [url="http://www.bossarea.com/serial/sndecoder.aspx"]http://www.bossarea..../sndecoder.aspx[/url] Si

I'd say take a look at the COG TK-421-X & the MXR Bass Distortion (designed by Fuzzrocious) too. Those two and the B3K are probably the best Bass Distortions with a blend at the mo . There are lots others that probably fall more into the Overdrive or Fuzz categories, it can all be a bit grey lol Si

Really nice fingerboard, birdseye, but not over the top! Si

[quote name='The Badderer' timestamp='1435657783' post='2810971'] that's good to know cheers guys. i'll be less getting my knickers in a twist about dismantling the bass option now! [/quote] Another reason to just buy one out there, and do that for getting it home again. Maybe just check your case with an existing bass before you leave lol Si

[quote name='Phil Starr' timestamp='1435654471' post='2810924'] There's a few grumpy old men on this thread aren't there? It's interesting that all the singers held up to be better are male and rock singers. I think people are missing the point, it's all about performance and engaging the audience with her. She was clearly so charged with adrenaline she lost it a little. She came on so fired up she did miss a few notes then she nailed it for a bit but overdid the jumping around and lost her breath and control at the same time. The audience clearly loved it. Do we have different standards for women I wonder? A lot of the acts lost vocal control towards the end of their sets, Roger Daltrey for one but I'd rather see an act taking risks and entertaining than just delivering and failing to engage. In the past I've seen sets where she has just nailed every note, remarkably so with some of the intervals she uses. There's a difference between not being able to sing for toffee and messing up. Who here hasn't messed up playing or singing live. OK the music isn't for everyone, I'm a sucker for a good pop song. I personally find most rock songs and rock bands dull and derivative, just not my taste, but I don't come on and slag off Dave Grohl for having an off day and going raspy and shouty at the end of a set. I guess I understand if people are criticizing because they didn't get to see the Foo's, whoever thought Florence was an equivalent act got that wrong, but it's hardly the bans fault. I'm a bit worried that we find it ok to criticize women more easily than men. [/quote] The Staves aren't male. (Did anyone go watch The Staves btw?) Florence is always off, the occasion has nothing to do with it unfortunately. Si

[quote name='landwomble' timestamp='1435601385' post='2810480'] I'm planning on buying in the US next month. TBH, I can't see why I can't just take the neck off, wrap body and neck separately with bubble wrap and stick them in my suitcases... [/quote] This is exactly what I did when I went to Wooten Woods. Removed neck from body, tuners from neck (saves a surprising amount of space), wrapped everything in clothes. Was still a little stressed about it in transit though, because of luggage size restrictions, the neck was still pretty jammed in diagonally across the case.....and they really do just fling those cases about when loading them. I didn't loosen the rod (didn't read into that at all), just made sure that I rebuilt the bass as soon as got to the hotel! Si

I don't think I'll ever consider what Florence does as 'singing'.....shouting, wailing, perhaps. Never liked her for that reason. Tell you what, instead of talking about how disappointing one act is, do yourself a favour, do what I'm doing and treat yourself to The Staves set on iPlayer . Beautiful voices! Si

I'm interested to know why you prefer batteries? Potential to run out at gigs, expensive, bad for the environment?! Lol Si

Regardless of whether people like him or not (I thought his first album was great), I think it's pretty shoddy to turn up for a headliner slot without a great band. It's the one thing live hip-hop does brilliantly (usually). Just lazy! Is there much of a 'show' at all? Si
-
I'm not near a Tellybox, is he getting bottled? Please tell me the ego-maniac is being bottled?! I wondered whether he'd have the gall to turn up without a band....proven correct :-/ Si

[quote name='0175westwood29' timestamp='1435403604' post='2808451'] id be be tempted to try find the od that sounds right to you with out the eq, but hey thats how ive ended up with like 5/6 dirt pedals [/quote] I should point out that I was badly quoting the member above me (somewhere), I wouldn't touch Behringer pedals lol. Not through pedal snobbery, they sound fine, but have some issues with their general business practices. Si
