Got some tail in the mail...Rat Tail that is!

[tigerbass]

Just got my Fuzzrocious Rat Tail in the mail!!!
It looks even better in person...absolutely killer paint job Shannon!!
Just plugged it in for a second, gotta go get a crown put on my tooth here in a minute :scowl:, but let me just quickly say,
"Hellz yeah!!"
I can't wait to get back home and rock this bad boy out!

Been playing this for little bit now and I am totally impressed!!
I have never played a real "distortion" pedal with bass that sounded good before. Ryan hit another home run with this I must say!! I love it already!
Lots of great tones to be had, that's for sure. All 3 modes sound killer! I think I already found my signature distortion setting, so yeah...I'm totally ganked!!
Running thru my X-Blender with a little bit of clean blended in and I got Rage Against the Machine all day!
I'm impressed with how much bottom end presence is retained no matter how you tweak it. Even if you dial it over the top extreme, with just a touch of clean it instantly sounds amazing!!
I can tell this will cut thru a band mix no problem as well.
Well I only have about 1/2 hour on this, and I still have a bit of a learning curve on this but, I know it's a keeper and my search for distortion is over!
Thanks Ryan for that!!

Feed your rat tail lots of cheese!

Dang, and I thought this thread would be about role-playing mail-order prostitutes. I had the cheddar ready and everything...

 

[Valerus]

I don't need it but I want to play it!

 

[My name is Mudd]

What is this 'need' that you speak of...your words confuse me.

 

[Eric!]

Ry...FUZZ FACE?! TONEBENDER mkII?! BRASSMASTER??!

 

[rratajski]

Baby face? Babybender mkII? Babymaster?

 

[chrisisnotevil]

If you do ever clone a fuzz face, I think you just found a name...

 

[JamesHommersen]

Tonebender clone! That would be awesome.

 

[jimmy rocket]

I've been considering a Rat project for a very long time, and I've just never gotten around to it, so I'm glad that Ryan has tackled it in such epic fashion.

Tonebender, hmmm.....

 

[rratajski]

Vegas/Thom has been putting the tonebender bug in my ear weekly... Who knows when I'll ever have time to get on THAT! Yikes!

I'm super happy that Jimmy did that BJFE Honey Bee clone. I ordered parts to build one for myself and mod it for bass...I really want to compare it to the low gain settings on my rat tail since they are similar in layout!

 

[poor_gear_whore]

Mine is in the mail! I'm stoked to check it out.

 

[tigerbass]

I think it's Awesome! Gigged with it saturday nite and loved it!! Sounds wonderful in the band mix!

 

[chrisisnotevil]

RAAAATTT!
Just paid up. All will be very, very well. I <3 fuzzrocious.

 

[Deluge Of Sound]

I'd be very interested in a BabyBender as a gift for my dad...


Which has some strange Freudian connotations, if you think about it?

 

[moggieman]

how much is the rat tail??

Either pm Ryan or check the fuzzrocious MySpace for more details.
