Let me start off by saying Merry Christmas to everyone. I am going to be buying my first pedal soon and I was wondering what you think I should get. A EHX Bass Big Muff or a Boss DD-7.

Then you can flip it in a few months for another pedal and not lose any money. |

|  | I'm gonna love and tolerate the **** out of you! | | Join Date: Jan 2008 Location: Memphis/Knoxville TN | | | How about a used Big Muff and a used DD-3? That`ll end up costing you about $100-120 for both.
Although personally, I`d get a used muff and a used micro q-tron. |

I'd rather be stranded with a delay pedal than with a dirtbox.  |

Now you can start to throw tomatoes
Delay is the fun! |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Sep 2000 Location: Des Moines, IA, USA | | | Of the two, the BBM is going to be more useful. However, I think there are pedals that are in the same $75-150 range that are better choices than either of them. Dirt, as a "genre" of effects, is more useful than delay, and there are some cool pedals that can be had for less than $150. The Homebrew Electronics Hematoma is a fantastic overdrive, and it has a clean boost. I got (and sold) mine for $110. The Pigtronix Disnortion is also awesome, and it is ridiculously versatile, since it has both overdrive and fuzz in parallel, in addition to an octave-up. I got mine used for $130. As it's been mentioned before, buy used! It's cheaper, and it cuts your losses if you don't like the pedal. |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jul 2009 Location: Glen Mills | | | Now I don't know what to get. The DD-7 would sound great playing alone, I don't really know how it would sound in a jam setting. I am pretty sure distortion will sound really good in a jam setting. I don't know what to get since people are now saying DD-7 now. I will get both eventually I just don't know what to get now.
