    Octave pedals with active bass?

    Hi friends, So I'm looking at getting an octave pedal to imitate the sounds that Tim Lefebvre gets playing with Mark Guiliana. He talks very highly of the BOSS OC-2. If you're not familiar with his Mark Guiliana sound, it's very synthy – he uses a lot of the OC-2 as well as the EHX Frequency...

    Looking for a smaller amp that's able to stay in the mix.

    My fellow bassmen, I've been looking around for a portable combo, one that I would be using at smaller jams, and possibly a gig or two down the line. I've been playing in a group with two guitarists and a drummer, and the problem that I've been having with the keyboard amp I've been using is...

    Ridiculous Synth Pedals: Markbass Super Synth vs. EHX Bass Microsynth

    derrico1, I just took a look at the Multiwave Bass Distortion, and I think combined with an expression pedal it may be a dream come true. I saw an advertisement for it in the last issue of Bass Player that I got, and after listening to some demonstrations online I think I'm going to get it. For...

    Ridiculous Synth Pedals: Markbass Super Synth vs. EHX Bass Microsynth

    Hey bassketeers, I'm currently in the market for a pedal to add to my collection. As of now I have an ODB-3, Q-Tron Plus (which needs repair and is currently out of commission), and RC-20XL (but I use that as more of a utility than effect). I've always been interested in the sounds that some...

    Getting a Jazz Bass "Growl" from a Bongo

    I'm using an SWR Super Redhead, are there any tonal adjustments you could suggest there? And what kind of difference does a preamp make?

    Getting a Jazz Bass "Growl" from a Bongo

    I love my Bongo, but there are times when I absolutely cannot stand how "clean" it sounds. What are the contributing factors to that quality? But I don't want to derail the thread from any possible suggestions to getting a J-bass growl from it.

    Getting a Jazz Bass "Growl" from a Bongo

    I've been listening to Marcus Miller a lot lately, as well as trying to emulate his style and sound. I play a MusicMan Bongo with a humbucker bridge and single coil neck, and I've been struggling with the tone, which seems to happen every other week. For a couple of months I had the strings...

    ZVEX Woolly Mammoth: Is There a Substitute?

    Oh, wow, I should have found that pedal board thread! There's actually a MicroSynth on eBay right now that I'm looking at. Thanks for the help!

    ZVEX Woolly Mammoth: Is There a Substitute?

    Do you own a MicroSynth? I remember wanting one terribly two years ago. I'm interested as to how well the two octaves and distortion work on their own.

    Dead B and Squier Pro Tone V

    Have you tried adjusting the pickup height towards the B? That might be a simple fix.

    FS: Woolly Mammoth Clone

    I'd just like to let you know, fitz420, that I am still interested in this but probably wouldn't be ready to purchase it for (at most) another three days.

    ZVEX Woolly Mammoth: Is There a Substitute?

    I found the clone that was listed here, which seems like a good idea but a year ago I deleted all of my pirated music and software so I'm thinking of whether or not I feel comfortable buying an imitation of a pedal made by what seems to be a very small company, but I'll keep thinking about it as...
