DIY Bass distortion pedal kit?

[tbone0813]

Are there any out there. I have found plenty guitar ones but no bass specific ones. Any help?

There is no reason why a guitar distortion can't be used for bass. Plus, most of the BYOC dirt kits give you some options for different components that will help retain low end. The Overdrive 2 from and the Mouse from BYOC both have bass modes.

Cool. I did not know this. That is actually where I was just looking. Thanks.

I use a Flipster and Thor from runoffgroove.com with my basses. Mine were prebuilt by olcircuits.com but they sell kits as well.

This one is supposed to be pretty bad@$$ although I haven't tried it: http://moodysounds.com/index.php?mai...&products_id=2

I’ve been thinking of getting the orange Peel and tweaking the values for bass.

I don’t see why any of the kits can’t be adjusted for bass use.

I have one of those too... I have rehearsal on tuesday, I'll make sure I record some with it.

It works well as is, but needs less gain for my tastes.

There's the Moody Hjärt Müller kit.

Great sounding pedals, when finished.
