  1. @alexclaber - is this a long term partnership with cog then? Or specific r and d collaboration to deliver you a range? Curious as to any exclusivity and the direction of cog as part of this as well. Also, what are the drive and fuzz circuits based on (is it a moded tarkin and knightfall?) and have you got demos coming online soon? Cheers
  2. I think my problem with this is they don't build pedals. So customer feedback, continuous improvement and product development, r and d etc..... All feels mis placed. An amp has always made sense to me. Maximise the synergy with their cabs. There's Lots of established, niche and quality pedal builders out there.... what is effectively an outsourced/ White label product via third party just feels it missed the point of the barefaced brand to me. Not meaning to sound too critical, I guess just disappointed in the direction. ✌️
  3. Looks interesting. I'm surprised they've dived in this deep with a first release. It's expensive to take a punt on, but probably still represents value I don't like the styling, and I'd prefer to buy cog tbh. All in the tone, and like you say, Tom knows what he's doing.....so it'll be good I'm sure. Not my bag though
  4. @bartelby - that rig has left me feeling confused, slightly violated, but overall warm and fuzzy. How do the smaller cabs compare tonewise?
  5. Selling a few pedals as chasing a tone in my head as normal... All in decent condition, happy to field questions etc and can post. PayPal accepted. Moog mf delay - £180 posted second class. Great analogue delay. Now Discontinued. Very small scratch bottom left of switch. Boxed, Velcro on bottom. Moogs description: The MF Delay is a boutique, all-analog effect that has been custom-designed for superior tone and feel. Conjure articulate slap delays that wash into expressive swells or push the boundaries of space with up to 700ms of rich delay trails with infinite feedback that spiral into a beautiful warmth and character not found in any other delay pedal. The expression pedal input on the MF-Delay is unique in that it is the only Minifooger with a selectable destination. Choose between Feedback or Delay Time.

  6. I messaged about 4 weeks ago via messenger and email. No reply sadly. Hope all's ok with Tom. Looks like he's just stopped as every channel is still there but no updated content.

  8. @Baloney Balderdash I play in a doom band and I used the b9 on a very short section on our latest album. Went full cathedral setting on it. We Dialled the sound back ia fair bit in the studio, but live i really let it scream and sounds ace imo. Lowest I get to is an A on the e string. if I don't catch it right it can wobble a little, but I mainly play if off the B on the E string and above and it's really nice.
  9. @Baloney Balderdash don't apologise. I've read a particular thread on talkbass where there are clearly challenges with this series for people even to A. I aim for sustained sounds out of this pedal, likely to combine it with a superego in the future, rather than runs and riffs etc. I'd expect others mileage to vary based in the application. It's still interesting as to whether other experiences vary and all input is always worth discussion. I'll have to see how it goes with the band from now. Here's another video I found which shows the tracking etc just for ref: https://youtu.be/oeq-c9SjBEA
  10. @Baloney Balderdash Low d on my b string (5er). Its not quite as sustained below the A but its pretty good imo. Like the b9. I have a Cali bass compact compressor Infront of it, so not sure if that helps, and I have used the b9 for a while. I play bridge pick up on humbuckers. Overall I'm pretty happy with it and it'll definitely be useable.
  11. I picked one up at a really good price. Tracks fine with a compressor in front down to about a low d. Really happy with the first three and last two settings. Others aren't really my bag. Currently writing an album so looking for somewhere to sneak some sounds in now ☺️
  12. Having a hard time ignoring these..... Just enquired with them as to whether the parallel blend is adjustable. Lots of flexibility, pricey, but the Atom version does the job I'd want on my current and considered set ups. https://www.thegigrig.com/g3
  13. Love this pedal....used to be my main fuzz. GLWTS.... I'll probably stop by and consider again in a bit.... I just dont need it atm...

  15. I'll have a look into the boss, thanks. Part of what I liked about the Mel was the choir settings. Had those on the big sky to a degree and haven't found another pedal offering up similar type sim. Yeah the tracking is pretty weird. The b9 I have works when I use it but I don't have the technical understanding as to why a low a is where it stops.
  16. Hi All, Any users of the EHX Mel9 - watched a couple of bass reviews, read some minor reviews online, but wondered if anyone had had one for a while/ gigged/ home use....shop use? I have a B9 and the tracking can be a bit glitchy but I get on pretty well with it. Just struggling to find any more resources or thoughts. Might just bite the bullet but thought I'd see if anyone was knocking around with one. Cheers!
  17. Whats the power rating on that Ampeg? I had serious GAS for this little number until I realised it only went to 100w which whilst I understand I could use it with a 200w amp at low volume, kinda defeats the point and throws risk to my head. Looks ace though and my guitarist has the previous model which sounds great as well
  18. I use a matamp gt200 every week at rehearsal and every gig (when we did them) I use a post power section DI from the head live. I've not owned anything that comes close (for me) in the band I'm in, either traditional hybrid or newer class d. Reliability has been fine and the tone is plug and play and is wonderful. That said, I drive everywhere and loads aren't too long. I've also gone modular on my cabs to increase load runs but reduce the weight. If the gt200 gets too heavy for me (I have arthritis) I'll probably switch to an ashdown ctm100 as I think the weight and handling on those is pretty good. Weirdly my home practice amp is a little genz Benz.... Kinda the wrong way round to logic I guess 🤣
  19. IMO, Definitely tweak as much as you can at rehearsal - try and get the band on board to do this as it's about the music as much as individuals. I've had a few sessions with my guitarist and drummer focusing on the right band sound for a section, and how my fuzz tone works with our guitarists lead/ fuzz/ driven tones so it all stacks together (often telling the guitarist to get out of my EQ space XD) At the moment, I dont use a clean blend, I've just found a pedal I like that works with my amp and my band, but gain structuring is definitely worth spending time thinking about as well. I keep getting drawn to the Tyler or the Ouroboros though.....
  20. Hey man, are you playing for or 5 string? How's the Cali? I have major gas for the large box, even though my board can't take it!
  21. Unopened, price includes postage. Thanks
