JHS Legends of Fuzz Series

Those are pretty cool, I've become a JHS fan since becoming more of a guitar player. Their pedals never quite worked for me on bass, but since picking up guitar duties I get to experiment with a wider range of pedals 
Those JHS 'classic' pedals are neat, this video is just fascinating. I never knew/cared about Tone Benders before this.

I just bought the Tonebender and Super fuzz as both circuits are close to my heart.
You best believe I'll be doing some videos when I get them.

^^^This. Someone gave me a JHS Angry Charlie V2 last year and I was supremely underwhelmed by it with bass. Then I tried it on guitar. Oh yeah, now we're talkin'!
Yeah I have to agree after hearing it. I was hoping for something similar to the Boss FZ-2 but I guess that isn't the point of these. The Tonebender sounds like it might have some use on bass though, and the muff obviously.
Yeah I've had quite a few mk III Tonebenders and they're all pretty great on bass.
I would have gone for the Crimson but I've got a Sanford & Sonny Bluebeard so I'm trying (hard) not to get any more muffs.
I would have gone for the Smiley but I'm pretty certain the Recovery Effects Pearl I have on the way is going to cover similar ground.

The Pearl is awesome. Be sure to try it with an unbufferred signal.
Woah. Any guesses?
I'm thinking:
Fy-2 companion fuzz
Mkii Tonebender
Mosrite Fuzzrite
Burns Buzzaround
Ram's head big muff
Maestro Fz1
Maybe a Brassmaster
ive got the bender aswell! thinking the supreme will be next! may aswell get the series innit!
I'm trying out the Supreme this weekend. JHS brings the fun. I've found their pedals usually work pretty well for bass but I tend to blend the dirt pretty light.
Press the buttons on the side to make sure they're both pressed in. This is the best bass sound on the Supreme. Having said that, every sound the Supreme makes on bass is great. But the bassiest is with both buttons pressed in. Also, I tried out the Supreme with a Damnation loop blend pedal and it was amazing. It takes to blending very well. The Supreme is a great Superfuzz for bass!
