yeah I was using brian's setup as a basis, but as I got my own ideas I gravitated away from the "lightning-bolt" setup, though I still use the pedals he had (though not in the same configuration at all) because I liked the way those pedals sounded

who is john davis?



I was, but not not anymore.

but I did use it as a basis.

John Davis is a bass player who does awesome synthy stuff, and is best known (I think) for some of his work with JoJo Meyer. He is a member of TB and talks about effects sometimes. The board I quoted is very similar to his setup; it's just missing a Wooly Mammoth (which dude said he wants to get) and a Bugcrusher bitcrusher and a DL-4 (I think).

This is pretty cool. I was just about to buy the smaller, older version of the Big John fuzz a few days ago and now it's on TalkBass! I just wish I had the cash...

Those Big John's are awesome!!!!

Nice Job Jan; they sound great!!!

I would go ahead and make sure to disclose your affiliations though. I have no beef personally as I'm glad you posted; otherwise I wouldn't have known of your company/enterprise. I just don't want you to catch any flack from the mods.

My other board (board might be stretching the realms of reality!)- playing mainly hard rock / NWOBHM (maiden, saxon as well as priest, motorhead, sabbath style originals.)

the HM2 is a MIJ model. I'm borrowing it from my guitar player to A/B it with my two MIT models.

When gigging, I add an MXR 6 band Eq to bring levels and sounds into line between my different basses

It's been awhile since I've posted an update, sorry I don't have a picture but what I'm running currently is:

Wilson 12 Position Bass Q Wah -> Z. Vex Box of Rock -> Frantone Lo Tone Classic Fuzz -> Voodoo Lab Tremolo -> MXR Carbon Copy

The Box of Rock provides a little overdrive for my "rhythm" sound, as always, and the Lo Tone with my SG Bass gives me some ripping yet thunderous leads and heavy riffs. The more I use the Wilson Wah the more I seem to like it, seriously check it out it's a great alternative to those mass produced bass and guitar wahs. The Tremolo is probably my favorite modulation effect to date for adding some vintage style color to some of my riffs, and the Carbon Copy is a really great, simple warm delay for some of those psychedelic breakdown sections. Overall I'm happier with this setup than I've ever been with any other so there it is.

What are your thoughts on the Hyperdrive?

I did this many years ago when I used a rack rig. It's a great way to store and very quick to set up. You have to take the lids of your case, so why not put it on the floor, run a cord to it and be done.

I'd still be doing this if I used a rack but my combo suites me fine these days.
