I guess we could organise a Fuzz day at some point Like the bass bashes, but just for Fuzz? haha Si
-
I've decided today should forthwith be referred to as 'Happy Fuzz Day'! Please feel free to share your fuzz pedals, your fave fuzz builders etc on here, or on Instagram and Twitter using the hashtag #HappyFuzzDay Spread far and wide and lets get it trending Si

[quote name='paul_5' timestamp='1392339813' post='2367708'] Finally got round to finishing the BB preamp and it's not disappointing in any way, shape or form. I was a little bit apprehensive about just a 2 band on a pre, but it's really well voiced and sounds great. [/quote] Yeah, I don't miss any mids on this pedal. Really nice. Sounds slightly different in the low end to the Xotic, but still great and very useable! Si

And the other side is a Mantic Density Brute Si

When I briefly had a Streamliner 900 to gig with, I found it really difficult to cut through in general. Switched back to Markbass and had no problems at all. Just sayin' Si

[quote name='GazWills' timestamp='1392156068' post='2365520'] what a great band... and a lurvley drummer [/quote] Yup, lovely drummer! Si

FS/FT TC Electronic Polytune Mini - £50 - SOLD**
Sibob replied to daveybass's topic in Effects For Sale
Typical, after noting that none of these ever come up for sale....I bought new (albeit the Noir version) Oh well Great little tuner Si -
Sounds like a real dark overdrive. BBJE/Mad Professor Blueberry maybe, Fuzzrocious Dark Driving etc. Si
-
Yeah, saw Tera Melos in London last night, the Bass Whammy sounds really great! You know.....just to help the G.A.S. Si

We'll see how this layout fairs: [IMG]http://i57.tinypic.com/qrhuaf.jpg[/IMG] Si

Yeah it's cool, real grindy, and surpringly more gain in the mix than I thought. I thought I'd have to max the gain, but ended up winding it back a bit! Need to re-jiggle the board as the Mammoth enclosure doesn't lend itself to being the 2nd row on the flat. Don't have enough clearance for a riser though with how I store/transport it. Also think I need the tuner at the end of the chain as there seems to be some weirdness with the Polytune having a gain pedal after it! Si

[quote name='GazWills' timestamp='1391819233' post='2361793'] nice and compact! so are you another 'OC-2 after dirt' advocate too?? I just don't get on with my OC-2 after o/d or fuzz, but it seems to be how most people run their boards! [/quote] I'm a bit of a convert, although it always depends what you want to achieve. For this band I rarely use OC-2 with dirt, but when I do, I want to retain the subby lows, not compress it out with the dirt pedals. So I get slightly 'duller' dirt with the OC-2 on, but sounds massive Si

Re-shuffled my main board: [IMG]http://i59.tinypic.com/ekq8hd.jpg[/IMG] Just felt like a bit of a change is all, nothing wrong with the old sounds. Although I did want to streamline power & tuning, so off came the T-Rex Juicy Lucy & TU-2, on goes Diago & TC. Just for some rotation, Fuzzrocious Dark Driving has replaced the COG 66 & because of the tuner/power change, had space to add the Mammoth clone I built Oh also moved OC-2 to post dirt rather than pre, MUCH better! Si

Do a lot of guys take FOH signals out of their pedalboard? I have to say I always have my DI on my amp. Or is it perhaps meant for more recording means?! Si

[quote name='uncle psychosis' timestamp='1391618207' post='2359309'] Problem is---especially with fuzz---that nearly everyone has a different view on what "works" and what doesn't, especially because it also depends to an extent on exactly what preamp is in your bass, your settings, what you're trying to do, etc. [/quote] Too true, hence me suggesting that you try as many as possible.....its fun.....trust me Si

Squier Standard (Made In China) SOLD

Bump for edited trades Si -
I haven't owned an active bass in years and years, so can't help with comparisons. Ben @ Dwarfcraft certainly is a passive player, whether that means his circuits are catered towards those users I don't know, ask him on Twitter Again, Tom @ COG would be able to cater a Tarkin to whatever you want. Si
-
I just had a real quick google and the results were essentially "Muff-based circuits" (basschat doesn't have enough server space to list all the Muff derivatives ), and the Mastotron. Have a word with Tom @ COG, he made a Fuzz for Shep which had a variable Impedance control, it was probably Tarkin (Muff) based, but dunno for sure Si
-
309 has some of the best driven bass sounds ever! Si
-
The simple fact is that it's a lot harder finding a fuzz to play nice with actives. My advice would be to try a load and pick the one you like (that 'never-ending' fuzz quest). You'll have a much better time with Muff based circuits than Fuzzface based circuits Si
-
Fuzz Face based circuits hate active basses and buffers as they have a similar effect on impedance. So no, you don't want a Buffer .......you want a passive bass lol Si

Hi guys, Selling this for the girlfriend. Crafted in China Squier Strat. It works fine, truss-rod & tuners are fine etc There are some scuffs and some sticker residue, but again, easily sorted, I've tried to capture in the photos. There is also a small Squier combo that doesn't work, the buyer is welcome to this, and is probably an easy fix. The guitar also has a basic soft case. Essentially the whole package is sold as seen, but we'd like to see it being used Not sure if it's financially worth posting it, but we're always around Bucks/Herts/London for pickup/trade [b]SOLD[/b] Si

Bear in mind that if the Mooer is true bypass, so even with noise from a power supply, I wouldn't expect that noise to be 'effected', as such, there might be a fault with the Mooer. Si

[quote name='GazWills' timestamp='1391177134' post='2354179'] cheers both - I was hoping that was the case, looks like a white-knob BF-2 is in my future... 9v PSA as opposed to annoying ACA too hopefully... [/quote] I've never had a problem running the older ACA Boss pedals from standard power supplied. Some do work with a much duller LED, however this seems to be resolved by Daisy-chaining it from a Boss tuner. Powering ACA pedals direct from a PSA-240 adaptor has worse results. Si
