civictiger Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 Has anyone got any sound clips, or even a review of this product? I'm interested in buying one, but only if its really actually worth getting.. There have been a few for sale here which makes me think that people dont tend to keep their hands on them once they actually buy 'em!

eddiehoffmann Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Hey! I don't have any sound clips, but I just bought a Bushy Bison from a fellow basschatter. If you're looking for a fuzz for synthy sounds I highly recommend this pedal. I think Muse's Time is Running Out, or Hysteria are great examples of the sort of tones you can nail with the Bison. Really good for funky stuff as well, specially when combined with a good envelope filter (I use the 3 Leaf Proton and the EHX Bass Balls) and an a fat octave pedal (MXR M-288 in my case). If you turn the 'pinch' knob fully clockwise it won't sound so synthy anymore, but in my opinion other pedals do this kind of job better. Maybe a Wren and Cuff Pickle Pie - B, or Tri Pie 70', or even a Tech 21 VT Bass with the character control turned fully clockwise and quite a bit of drive. I hope that helps. Any more questions, just shoot. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sk8 Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Only reason i got rid of mine was i got an iron ether oxide fuzz which can do the mammoth gated sound well and didn't need to fuzz's (Odd i know). Great pedal and the build quality is top notch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civictiger Posted August 22, 2011 Author Share Posted August 22, 2011 So its not [i]really[/i] a good clone, then? of the Wooly Mammoth? I really want a Mammoth, it's just its price is pretty expensive for just a single effect! It ofcoruse has its reasons, but Zvex pedals apparently seem to break pretty easily, which puts me off of their prices.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddiehoffmann Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 (edited) I wouldn't know the difference. I never tried the Wooly Mammoth. The Bushy Bison does what it does really well. That's all I can say. Edited August 22, 2011 by eddiehoffmann Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sk8 Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 never had a mammoth but it sounded like the clips on the Zvex site. Gated fuzz? This is great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badgerific Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 (edited) I can build you a wooly mammoth clone for less than the Bushy Bison. Drop me a PM if you're interested. Edited August 27, 2011 by badgerific Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
