Haha. Did you suddenly turn in on and notice all the sound died while you were playing? Cause that would have been really funny

Your SC has 2 switches? Why so?
Ha, you cant have seen MBV tonight but whatever. |

I didn't see them tonight. I saw them 15 years ago. |

Not according to you. Oh yeah, I misread your post i thought you said 'It has 2 footswitches' |
It's ok...you are fun to confuse.
|
Okay then.

Bump

Bump bitch.
I finally decided what i'm doing. Getting a rat. : Standard of Turbo??? I will try them both out though but I need opinions. Is the turbo rat similar to a big muff? I've heard so? Is it juicy and crunchy? Versatile? Can be used for solo freakouts? Noisy? MBV/Shoegazy??? Can cover distortion and overdrive? Or is the standard rat better for this? |

good. turbo it is. I threw the ds1 because its crap. So solos with the muff sound shit if they are not boosted by something.

I really dont like my muff when soloing because its so compressed and acurate, its better with chords. Wait if i'm running my muff last and put the tr infront of it, thats boosting the tr right and not muff??
And it can do thurstons crunch right?? |
I prefer the ds-1 over the rat for guitar. For other purposes (tapes, floops) the rat is better choice.
|
I like the DS-1 to do the self oscillate bend then coupling it with a noisy fuzz and a chorus to make police siren sounds.
|
I got another fucking sweet guitar today...more details later~
|
So I was at a show today and this one guitarist had a sweet fuzz sound. So I was like "what is that?" and I walked up there and saw he had an Little Big Muff. Silly me, not recognizing pedals I own! Of course it was through a different amp and guitar though.
|
Here's my new guitar...exactly what I wanted and I never saw them used before I got my other tele and this store had two of them for decent prices!
'72 Tele Thinline RI, Daphne Blue mint fucking condition with case! ![]() |
Sexy man.Like the colour....
|
Just scored the standard RAT. It was 70, the guy gave me a discount. They didn't have turbo rats in stock, so i got this one, i like it, I'll keep it with me for a couple of days and then I'll see if im gonna keep it.

Its pretty nice and scooped. I will leave it for a day or so, but I think I'll keep it. It fuzzes up my Muffed solos pretty well. |

Yeah haha |
Another desparate bump...
|
I bought this cute thing for 70€
![]() Any good? '80 made in Japan. |

Just finished my first BYOC pedal, took me about 7 hours total...and worked right the first time!
It's a compressor with the old Ross circuit...sounds really good ![]() |
Cool man, post some pictures
|
It looks like this, but the LED is below the knobs...I think I'm just gonna leave it like this so nobody knows what the fuck it is.

I have the newest version and it's pretty versatile. You can recreate the Phase 90 very easily. It takes a while to learn how to use all the knobs properly. |
I just ordered the Mighty Mouse kit from BYOC, a Rat clone with 3 settings:
"Throughout the entire history of vintage guitar FX pedals and their reissues, the Rat reissue is probably the only one to do the original justice. So why would you want to build a clone if the reissue sounds good? Well....aside from the fact that the reissue is relatively expensive for a mass produced pedal, it comes in a big funky enclosure, and the obvious joy and bragging rights you get from building your own pedal, the Rat is the most amazing circuit to modify. And the BYOC Mighty Mouse Kit just happens to come with a few of the coolest mods for the Rat circuit. The 3-way toggle switch gives you "vintage", "big boost", and "overdrive" modes. "Vintage" of course gives you original specs. "Big boost" lifts the clipping diodes for a boost with an insane about of volume. The "overdrive" mode isn't part of the typical 3-way switch mod that some pedal modifying companies will do to the Rat. The "overdrive" mode involves a little more circuit bending than just changing the clipping diodes from 1N914's to LED's. The "overdrive" mode gives the circuit a completely different flavor from the regular Rat with LEDs in the clipping section. The kit also comes with the parts to build to "turbo" specs instead of "vintage" and a few other parts to tweak to taste." http://www.buildyourownclone.com/rat.html |
Thrasher, made in japan??? You know what J says....
'Don't buy Japanese pedals' |

BOSS is a japanese company, anyway?

Don't know... It's just a sub company of Roland which is....something...

Ofcourse. Are Rats made in china??? On the box of mine it says made in china. |
WOW Look at this! and look at the price and its crazy!?!?!?!
some of the best pics i've seen of this unit, the infamous effect used on the Washing Machine album... ![]() ![]() http://cgi.ebay.com/LUDWIG-PHASE-II-...QQcmdZViewItem And to change the subject... I scooped up on what I think is a good find the other day for a nice price at a local music store as they didn't exactly know what they had, its a custom made fuzz unit made in 2004 by Subdecay Studios (at the time they were in Washington but now are in Oregon) i'm pretty sure its called "Birthday Fuzz" and only 25 of them were made. Its a precursor/prototype to their newer more elaborate fuzz called the Flying Tomato. They appear to make some interesting units like the Quasar phase shifting pedal which has alot of features more so than most phaseshifting pedals made today and looks to be more elaborate than the Mu-tron Phaser II the birthday fuzz is pretty basic with no markings, and only volume and fuzz knobs but comes close to sounding like a bigmuff or even better and its also true-bypass: ![]() http://www.subdecay.com/index.htm |
