Fuzzrocious Club Quadratic Equation

[Drop-D]

My Wal has VERY hot pickups. And my rat tail handles them well.

The RT handles them much better than my LM308 turbo rat does.

So this may be a dumb question, but do Fuzzrocious pedals in general, and the Rat Tail line in particular, play well with active pickups? I ask because I'm about to throw EMGs in my Warwick Corvette ProLine and would also like to pick up a Rat Tail or King.

My BTB has hot pups and has handled every Fuzzrocious pedal I've owned just fine. I thought it made the RT a little "splatty" but I'm not really into rats so don't trust my opinion on it. However, the other 8 Fuzzrocious pedals I've had worked great IMO.

When it comes to the distortion, the RK gets along great with my L2K in active mode. However, as Ryan put it, this particular preamp overloads the feedback looper, rendering it useless when active.

Im really digging the dark driving. Its great how it gets along great with other pedals. I thought it would be great driving the rusty box , and its pretty cool, but its really awesome before the vt bass. Anyhow, I'm really curious about the version with just one knob, as thats the one I read so much about before owning it. What is the stock setting? How would I get it using the three knob and toggle on top version? Just curious. Oh Ryan, I tried it with the meat box, like you said, waaayyy low man. Haha,
not really useable in a band setting but real cool for a drum & bass jam.

Well, the one knob version actually has all the adjustments yours did, just in trim pots instead of external pots.

Just got the heads up that my hoodie has arrived at my folks'. Thinking I'll have to run over there tomorrow and pick that bad boy up. Of course, it'll be 95F here tomorrow, but it'll come in handy later this year.

From left knob fully counterclockwise, right fully clockwise.

Right, I know that part, thanks though. What I want to know is the stock setting. Ryan had asked someone "did you change the stock setting or leave it " The answer was leave it, so Im curious on what that was. I've tweaked it to what I think sounds bet with my rig and I love it. Just curious about what other people do with it.

Awesome, thanks Ryan!!
I will def be at the Cavale/With knives show. Gonna come friday instead, I realized I have Built to Spill tix for Sat, unless I could catch you guys then head over to union transfer. I'll see whats up with timing. Thanks again.

 

[N.F.A.]

Wish that Built to Spill was coming near here. They rock.

 

[lemongrenades]

They certainly do, almost as much as that grey stache you sold me, haha, thanks again man!!

That rat looks like a total pimp, with his lil crooked crown lol.

And Ryan, thanks for sharing those RT settings! I'm beginning to understand the dynamics of the pedal now!

That's one of the stamped Rats, isn't it? And yeah...pimp-daddy gold!

BTW I'm back in the Fuzzrocious club after receiving my Rat Tail about two weeks ago.

So far, I'm loving this thing. Unfortunately I have not been able to play it very loudly in my current housing situation, but I may be able to play it in a band setting soon. I expect it to kick absolute butt.

Someone HAS to grab this:

I kind of want it, even thought I had a GS and sold it! It looks amazing.

I tried to grab it off Prymeaxe last weekend and was told it's sold.

Had cash set aside to buy a nice filter but I'm now very tempted to add a stache to my Rat Tail and BDPG lineup.
