Bottom Feeder - repair needed? Help

Sign in to disble this ad
Hey gang,

When I engage my Bottom Feeder there is a significant volume drop off. It also sounds thin; dialing the knobs only slightly affects the filter. I know the BF is subtle, so I'm not sure if this is the pedal's inherent character. Does this sound like the filter is malfunctioning?

Brad at Tone Factor has already given me the deets on getting it repaired if necessary.

Thanks in advance,
Mr. P

I might also add that I was running the Prunes & Custard into the Bottom Feeder a few weeks ago and there was this unusual sustained feedback thing happening. It was after this that I noticed the issues mentioned above.
