I don't play guitar all so much anymore, but I'm not willing to sell any of it. If I have loose change sitting around after I purchase some design software, I'd love to live with one of these.

Yeah, I was playing with a KAOSS pad and it was awesome. I loved being able to make sounds just putting my finger down on that thing.

I have a Kaoss Pad and I rarely use it...gonna work out the midi w/drum machines to fuck shit up.

BTW, they're coming out with a cheaper mini version very soon.

heh the site is down :(

just found this, its the carl martin surf trem demo from some guy on the carl martin forum.

glorious 4 minutes of messing around with it.

i definately wanna buy this one...

Awesome

I use EHX Bigg Muff
Boss - DS 2
EHX - Small Stone
Line 6 - Echo Park
and im wanting to get a kaos pad, to keep me company too!

i love that kit you have bought thats some groovey ambition you got going there..

^cool

bump

Why do you need a big muff, distortion AND a blue box?

im a gain/fuzz whore. and im gonna add more.

I think I might be turning into a dirt whore too.

Right now, all I have is an LBM- but I practically want to do every www.buildyourownclone.com dirt pedal they have to offer.

since this seems to be the guitar geek thread...

i've been really into finger picking and two hand tapping lately, just coming out with riffs that involve two hands and, oddly enough, i haven't listened to battles or don caballero or dysrhythmia in ages.

i hope my credentials are in order:

boss ge-7 graphic equalizer
e-h double muff
dunlop jimi hendrix wah
zoom 509 dual modulation processor
ibanez bass synth
boss turbo overdrive od-2r(?)
boss digital delay dd-3

cool gear. i might get the dd3 and the double muff, im not sure on the double muff though.

well, news, i mailed the person who makes lovetones and he said that hes not going to continue making the pedals.

shit, the meatball costs like 350 gbp...

those pedals are expensive! the seem awesome though.

and the double muff, i love it!!! it sounds like shredded speaker, if you want drive and clarity, forget about it, it's not good, but it's good for destroying amps.

yeah i always thought the double muff sounded like ass but it was cheap so i was considering it. edit: the video demo does sound shit.

anyways, the meatball is actually 400 gbp with the expresion switch...

gonna get a guy to build me a trem pedal, a custom thing with a speed bypass switch, when pressed it takes the speed down halfway. pretty cool... i cant find any that i like and that arent too pricey, this ones gonna be like 50 euros.


but i really want either a filter or a delay first...


i hate this bloody ds1, it sounds like ass when it goes after the muff (from the guitar) its so bad... ds1's suck.

well, i think you can get the double muff to play something less extreme, the thing is that i love to use it for the ass sounds.

i wish i knew or had the patience to learn the arts of circuits and shit so i could make my own pedals but that's not something i was meant to do, i'll probably try to make a contact mic in the future.

i like my minimal, unhipster pedal board, i'd love to have more pedals but that requires money, damn capitalism!!!

building pedals is like chinese to me. its like the worst thing possible.

damn, yesterday i recorded something, noise using my holygrail and now i cant remember how i did it... damnit.. i have to try tomorow

I'm building a compressor this week. Gonna give it a custom paint job and shit.

Are you sure you aren't just a giant effects pedal from the future?

might get this made for me,

Oooh, I want one of those too! Does the knob on the bottom left say FIRE or FINE?

nah, thats not supposed to be like that, its supposed to be a switch that takes the speed of the trem down half way. basically its a supa trem clone with carl matrin trem settings (old school fender trem settings) and that knob triangle/square is supposed to be a switch as well.
and a reverse trem switch is supposed to be in it.
i want it in green, lighter green, the kinda color on the dino jr green mind album, and then the LED's to be purple. or the whole pedal to be purple. and its gonna be 50 euros.

i might also get a superfuzz clone with cow flakes on called the supercow superfuzz.

Shoulda bought my real Superfuzz for $400...:D

Hey, king, is that a Dunlop Cry Baby wah? If it is, how does it sound?

hey man, its the 'cheap' 90 euro Crybaby GCB-95 wah. not worth the money. its weak and has close to no sweep.

my order is changed now
its
holy grail
muff
ds1
blue box
crybaby

okay i'm getting a delay next, and then after possibly another fuzz pedal and after a small clone or a stone, i dont know

this is a bump

. . . and it's called

12XU!

someone convince me the dd-20 is worth my money.

Hey KingBuzzo I dont want to be in your neighbourhood but you are my idol!

It isn't. I have all the delay I need from a Danelectro PB+J and an Arion SAD-3

thank you. i need a few good opinions besides my own, there arent many places around me with a variety of delays to try out.

haha, :D why?

damn im getting close to buying that delay....

yeah i was gonna suggest swapping the muff and ds-1... muffs sound great last in the chain of distortion boxes. ever tried the crybaby last before the holy grail? instead of first in the chain, it might be too much Wah action though, which is what i've found.

anyways my chain has completely done a make over as my guitar sounds has taken quite a turn... sounds like a cross between keiji haino noise, lightning bolt/ruins and some old school cliff burton style thrash metal...

Dunlop Hendrix Octave Fuzz
Boss Octave OC-2 (older model)
Proco Rat (older model from 80's)
EH Big Muff (Russian) ***optional***
DOD Death Metal

with both the octave fuzz and boss octave on at the same time, the off tracking gets really wacky and intense, most people don't prefer this but i use this as part of my sound and i think its interesting and different, add the Rat and the Death Metal and its great NOISE! i get super weird oscillating feedback and sustain with all the pedals on and its not much like anything i can really think of, i also play in lower tunings, not quite baritone but often in Drop D or C variants

basically put all my delays aside for now (digitech 2 second delay & EH Deluxe Memory Man) as it will make me concentrate on what i'm playing in realtime as delays can sometimes be a crutch though they do help make your guitar sound alot more fuller, though i must say those have been my two favorites that i still use over the years.

haha death metal....

amyways, my wahs sweep is to weak to stand after the muff and the orders great now.

fuck ds1's

I dont wanna be your neighbor cause with all that distortion you can scrape the 'varnish' from the walls. second, you are my idol cause you do that!! :) haha

get that delay so you can take a cup of coffee while the noise go around in the room!!

haha, i've already had complaints from the neighbours. simply because i leave it to feedback and post here for hours.
