You can have any 5 bass pedals in your pedalboard.
What are they (brand and type)?
And can you rank them #1-5 in order of importance? |

| | | | I have no pedals and I like it that way. The cleaner and least degraded in quality because of tone-sucking boxes the better. |

Dirt
Envolope
Pitch shift/delay

If I had to pick one more, I guess more modulation or a fuzz pedal. |

| Ummmm.... I think I only have one bass pedal right now. The rest are pretty much designed for anything you can throw it. So I guess then:
Bass Metaphors |

2) Compressor
3) EQ or any tone shaper pedal for more voicing options, which may include drive.
that's about all I can think of... the rest not so essential, add to taste... |
07-23-2008, 07:43 PM
| | | | Any pedal as long as it's red |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Sep 2002 Location: BARRACKVILLE WV | | | I'm kinda on and off with pedals. I like them but I get too lazy to hook them up with all the other stuff I have to setup (drum machine, PA etc.) I guess if I were to list my 2 favorite pedals, I'd have to say my 1) programable BDDI and my Boss chorus pedal. I never use any other pedals |

Thanks for sharing your ignorance. Oh wait, no thanks. | +1 to both.
Right now I use a Hematoma and Attack Goat. Both are touted as "bass specific", as is the GeminiDrive im sorta GASing for, but I just put that down to coincidence/marketing as im sure that they could sound good with whatever signal you might want to put thru them: - Farting Llama
- The Pope
- Ground Beef
- McDonalds Fries
- Battery Powered Radio
- Etc...
