Fuzzrocious Club - Sextuplet

[skulletwhip]

Here's the easiest way to figure it out:
Open up your pedal.
The toggle activates the diodes opposite of its position (if toggle is up, it activates the diodes on the bottom of the toggle).

99% of the time if you have an up/down toggle, LEDs will be activated in the toggle down position.

If anyone hears bass loss in the middle toggle (no diodes) position, check your earholes haha. What you might be hearing is the openness (aka less compression) and clarity. Silicons and germaniums are much more compressed and mushy sounding than LEDs or no diodes. LEDs will provide a tiny bit of crunch compared to no diodes.

DAMN! I went one for 3.

Do those LEDs actually light up (inside the box) when they're in use? They'd make cool rat eyeballs if they did.

Yes, they do.

Danny is the man at etching.

Also, no diodes for me on bass. Gain a bit below noon. Filter just under noon also. I'd be interested to hear how people are setting their low and high / 1 & 2 on theirs though. I didn't have much time but kept both just above noon for practice and it sounded great.

Volume - unity, Filter - off, Dist - 11:00, 1 - dimed, 2 - 3:00, toggle - middle.

I keep my rat always on to have a overdrive, love it with my rickenbacker, enhances that natural bite. And I use my DK for heavier distortion. That said, my settings are Filter: 10/11:00, Dist - 7:00 (super low), 1 - all the way down, 2 - 8/9:00, no diodes

Ignore the blue "B" knob. Its part of the osd.

Thanks everyone for the advice. I'll have to play around with the Rat this weekend and figure it out. I've got a BDPG on the way and I can't wait to hear what kind of sounds I'll be able to crank out!

So I'm finally able to get another grey stache and I'm wondering which "version" to get? Any of them more versatile than others? I only had the oscillation modded one, which was cool but I'd like one id use more often.

Tone bypass w/ germanium and 4001s dude!

+1 Had mine modded to this exact combo. Definitely is the most versatile version (yes, I've owned every variant of GS)

I really want a Rat King for my other board after picking up this RT. Hmm, might have to post a few things up for sale.

Tried this setting at practice today (slightly tweaked), and it was incredible. Had a David Wm Simms thing going with the Rusty Box/Rat Tail.

Thanks for sharing.

My Rat Tail squeals like a piggy when I dime 1.

 

[aRandomAggie]

My Kid paint Rat Tail arrived on Friday...it definitely has a permanent home on my pedalboard. My wife even thought it was cool...she didn't even ask me how much it cost, which was a first. Maybe a DD is in my future.

Hellz yeah! germanium and 4001s where it`s at!!! I`m glad I went with those 2 diodes.

I just need to retro fit it with the tone bypass.......some day.

Maybe I'm the odd man out, but I love some LEDs on a Stache. Big and fat, and they seem to play well with my active basses.

Original design came with LED's. They sound great or Ry wouldn't have used them.

My personal taste prefers the No diode or 4001. Geranium is reserved for uber heavy.

I like the extra clarity and fat low mid sound of no diodes, but LED's are wicked sounding and I get more usable range out of the mid knob in LED mode when used with my BDPG. LEDs may take over. Does the germanium/4001 combo have no diode mode? I thought I read that it did'nt.
