Just finished setting up the pedalboard for all our upcoming shows etc. All fuzz and OD sounds now coming from FUZZROCIOUS pedals...

They live on the 'lower tier' of the board (yes it's that BIG!)...

With the 'top on' its something like this...

And you can see the Grey Stache & BDPG under the hood here...

Holy schnikes man! That is some set up. And to think I just ordered a PedalTrain Nano on Monday because I wanted to downsize from a Mini that I use with two bands...

BTW, how do you even reach that lower tier stuff in the back? Perhaps it's just the camera angle but it seems like you'd be stomping in the dark...?

I'm definitely going to check out your site, hopefully you've got some sounds of this stuff in action!

Speaking of senor behndy, this showed up in the mail today from TB user looper:

I recall hearing the lovely paint job was the brainchild of you, behndy? :bassist: My wife got quite a kick out of it.

Anyway, cool pedal to replace my JHS Mini-Foot Fuzz that's moving to a Nano board (and still purple, yey!). I'm a bit miffed at the Gate function though.

Looper said in the For Sale post (and I believe Ryan gave a thumbs up) that the controls are basically a Grey Stache. Left to Right on the top, volume, tone, sustain, with mids is the bottom middle. Toggle switch Left to Right is silicon, no diodes, LED. The bottom left knob is for the Gate.

So regardless of how I have anything else set (except for the volume of course), I can barely get a signal out with the Gate switch engaged and the Gate knob turned fully clockwise (I've tried active and passive basses). Even then it's not really a bit crushed sound (which was my understanding). To me it sounds like I must be doing something wrong, because I can't imagine anyone would think what I'm hearing is a "feature". Any ideas for those of you with the Gate function? (and of course Ry will hopefully weigh in)

It does look bad ass on my board next to the OSD and DD though!

Did some recording with my band tonight and the RK was always and killed as usual the new grey stache just destroyed every time I had it on. It was only rough tracks to help our new drummer coming in but man you could hear the rat cutting through the mix perfectly.

...and there-in likes the magic of Fuzzrocious. Everything Ry puts out will cut through the mix like a rabid guerilla.

Quick recording using a Grey Stache

The second bit is through an Octavius Squeezer

Just did it quickly for a mate who is learning to play an Opeth song (I hadn't even heard the song until about an hour ago so take it easy on my playing skills bro)

My point is....

FUZZROCIOUS FTW!

Yeah, 3 of the 4 on the lower level are controlled (including the Stache & BDPG) by the bypass strip at the front of the board. The 4th one is always on and is my 'channel B' sound. You can hear 99% of this is action on the live EP on the site.

Try toggle middle, volume to unity, full tone, full mids, full sustain, full gate. If that doesn't work, something's wrong with your pedal. It's been through like 7 people so far haha. Something was bound to go bust.
