Fulltone Soul-Bender (Tonebender Mk III) Soundclips

Sign in to disble this ad
So I figured I'd do some proper soundclips of this pedal. Personally it's a little bit too "wall of fuzz" sounding on chords for me, so I don't think I'll be keeping it, might put it up on eBay. But before I do here it is with my SG Bass, first with the bridge pickup, volume maxed, tone maxed (which is full bass), and dirt around 2:00:

I like it a lot with the bridge pickup, but that's not the thickest sounding pickup to be doing everything with. Works very cool for those string rattling dive bombs like at the end. Here's with both pickups now, same settings on the pedal:

and lastly, same settings again, but with just the neck pickup for the heaviest, most "wall of fuzz" sound:

so as you can probably tell these were recorded at low volume hence the background acoustics, but I think they'll give you an idea of what this fuzz can do. It can get a good deal more gain, and I could do clips of that if anyone is interested, but I kind of liked it at the setting I was using so that's how I left it for now. So check it out and let me know what you think!

Yeah it's worth checking out, but it doesn't sound good with my Micro Vibe, which is a huge part of my tone so overall it's not for me.
