Conclusion:
I may have the perfect love/hate relationship with this pedal. The wiggy mode is AWESOME, I mean the nasty bassy goodness of… you get the point. The twiggy mode is good too, but I find it unusable in a live situation because there is a significant drop in volume between it and the wiggy mode. If there was a volume unity between the two pedals it would kick it up one more notch. The next issue is the lack of LEDs as status indicators. It bothers me, call me spoiled, but its’ a feature that just seems necessary in modern equipment. Add an on/off and a wiggy/twiggy status led and this pedal gets kicked up one more notch. Because I’m being greedy, I see no reason that in a box this big we couldn’t get some kind of flip out battery compartment that would let me leave my screwdriver at home.
So where does that leave me? 2 LED’s, a battery box, and some unity problems away from a fuzz pedal I would be willing to recommend to anyone. As it stands, if you are looking for a crushing fuzz to do some recording in the studio you can’t go wrong with this badboy. If Audiomonk wants to talk about producing a BassFuzz.com edition of his gloriously frustrating pedal with some of my suggestions, I would buy it in a second. E-mails will be sent!
Not having any previous experiance with the superfuzz or inspired/clones I know I’ll be looking around to see what I can find.

did somebody know the audiomonk will work with an activebass?
greetings
I actually have no idea. I didn’t have an active bass when I owned this pedal. I would assume it works fine, because I’ve not had issues with other superfuzz variants.
