Fender Sub-lime bass fuzz

[zipflint]

Thanks a heap for the clips! I'm totally sold. I must have this but it'll hafta wait.

Thanks for the clips! It's hard (if not impossible) to tell from any clip, but does the low end diminish as the gain control is increased? Or, is it more a function of compression occurring in the recording?

Those MP3s squash recordings. Usually I record .wav files with the H2, but they're large & unwieldy for uploading purposes. In a full volume setting I found that with the gain rolled all the way off it was like a bassy preamp almost....maybe some low end loss as you crank the gain, but minimal - at least that's my experience with the 3 days I've had this beast.

If I get the opportunity I'll try & record some louder clips, but I make no promises.

Understood. You did a good job, maestro. It's really pretty impossible to demo dynamic subtleties via internet clips.

 

[Sound Chaser]

Definitely getting one.

I figured there was a bass boost. pretty slick sounding though. I love the LPF option. If BYOC or some intrepid builder made a Diy Kit for this unit, I'd be all over it.

I played one of these at the Fender booth at Bass Player LIVE 2009. I really liked it!!! I destroyed it!

No, actually Jay rode it hard and put it up wet. I was there to witness the mess.

Ahhhh, derail de-schmail. Any Kyuss conversation is good conversation. I always thought "And The Circus Leaves Town" was sort of overlooked.

THANK YOU! Nobody I knows agrees with me on this. And spaceship landing is my favorite song, actually.

.wav file this time, though still not as loud as I'd like

OD tone: noon

XO Freq: 11

Drive: 2

Gain: 1

Switch to fingerstyle at :46....listen for the pick drop.

Different hosting site because of the file size. Let it load up a bit for smoother playback.

Enjoy the bum notes, I've been drinking.

[crapusername]

Does anyone know when this will be available in the US?

 

[loendmaestro]

It's available now.....I live in Georgia & got mine last week.

 

[Holy War]

OK, now I want one for sure haha

By the way, theres a review in this months Bass Player for anyone interested in reading up on it

 

[zipflint]

Is this mofo available online anywhere? I've done some quick googling and didn't come up with anything.

 

[Kgoodrich]

it looks quite solid, sounds great and looks quite cool. when is it available?

 

[loendmaestro]

I've never used any of these guys before, but here you go....

I got mine through Kaman Direct, via the company I work for. So if any of your local music stores are a Kaman distributor they should be able to get it.

Thanks for the LINK...to me..the key in this thing is the crossover....what a damn good idea.

again..thanks

No worries man, I'm pretty happy with it. Still tweaking my sound, but I've been through a lot of dirt pedals & I think this is a keeper.

Plus I think it could double as a deadly weapon....

New Video Here...it's German, but you get a great idea of what it can do!
