    Have you received your Aria Pro II CLB yet?

    Hi all! First post here. I’ve preordered my Aria Pro II Cliff Burton signature model and can’t wait for it to arrive. Wanted to see if anybody else who’s preordered has received it yet. If so, how is it? How does it play, sound, feel? There is very little user reviews online about it.

    Morley power wah (Tel-ray)

    Hello, I know there’s probably some threads out there about this pedal, but I was wondering what people’s opinions are on the Morley power wah.

    Morley wah choices

    Hello, I want to buy a morley wah for a cliff burton esque tone. Cliff I believe used a morley fuzz wah. The problem is that I have a budget of 200 cad and the fuzz wah is about 250 cad. Luckily I have the budget for the morley switchless wah, which is about 170 cad. I already have a big muff...

    Who else Loves the work of Cliff Burton?

    Hello, I personally think that Cliff is the #1 bassist of all time. The GOAT. (And the best Metallica bassist). His lines were incredibly melodic and Nicely written. He always had amazing tone. I even have his Signature Fuzz Wah from Morley.

    Best wah pedal for distorted, screaming bass sounds?

    I really need some help with this one. It's gotta be a wah with a real powerful sound, not a weak subtle little "weh.." (Looking at you, Sonicake products). Something like Cliff Burton's playing on the track "The Call Of Ktulu". Something that sounds absolutely monstrous. Something that delivers...

    Cliff Burton's RTL tone

    Although I know he used his TS9 and Rickenbacker for the majority of his recordings in RTL, I was wondering if anyone knew if he still had his flatwound rotosounds on his bass when recording the album? I was also wondering why he was using flatwounds for Kill Em' All as well.
