Comments:
It takes awhile playing with a pedal that costs this much to really get past how its value and just start listening to it. I’ll say right off the bat that this pedal isn’t worth the price, especially if you are buying it with the idea of using for bass. This isn’t to suggest that the pedal doesn’t sound good, because there are several settings that sound very very good.
The size is expansive, but everything is well laid out and easy to access. The labeling isn’t quite top notch in the art of finishing, but does cast a serious industrial attitude that is hard to ignore.
This pedal is perhaps the most transparent fuzz i’ve used. I know that sounds pretentious and a bit stupid, but each bass retains it’s own unique flavor more than i’ve ever experienced. I actually liked it best with my five string active, which also makes it the first fuzz I’ve been able to say that about. Cutting through in the mix and low end loss are going to be problems on some levels, but I’d be afraid to take it out of the house anyway! Noise levels are very low and it worked well when recording overdubs to a dry signal.
In conclusion, save your money unless you are serious crazy loaded or an obsessive collector, but if you have a chance to give one a whirl, do so!
