I, for one am disappointed. So you'll be selling me the sparkle Machine?

I don't own the sparkle Machine, nor the sparkle Wooly Mammoth, nor any of the Lovetone pedals, nor the RMC3 wah, nor anything else. My employer two years ago messed up on my taxes, and the IRS came after me for over $4000 in unpaid taxes. I was forced to make some bitter sacrifices. Not fun at all.

Oh, been there, done that, but for a substantial bit more and for 15 plus years. Finally got them off my back in May of this year. It's no fun, is it?

Not at all. Especially since I already paid them, and now they want an additional $1000. I wouldn't mind paying taxes if I actually got something for my money beyond endless wars in foreign countries to "protect my freedom".

The pedal bug is coming back to me pretty strong of late. I'm to rejoin my rock/industrial band in San Francisco, and I'm going to need some noise makers.
 
It's never enough with those A-holes, and never count on them honoring anything they've said....

But enough of the bitterness. Industrial? You need pedals!

:)

Oddly enough, I may not be playing just bass in this band - I'd be the mad scientist percussionist/keyboardist/guitarist/hitter of found objects guy. I may not need to augment my bass rig for a while.

Although, I'm really hankering to get my Machine back.
 
Hmm, I guess its my turn

Not really a "board" though if anyone complains I could go find something to stick them on, haha.

They aren't even plugged in at the moment, mainly because the envelope filter on the right tends distort my signal even when it's not on. The bootsy collins pedal in the middle is clean though, so I guess technically I could leave it in the loop. I really need one of those looper pedal things a lot of people here seem to have. Hmm, add that to the GAS list.

I almost always use the art v3, not really a pedal, but it's practically my pre-amp for now...
 
How's the Bootzilla holding up? I've not had good luck with Snarling Dogs pedals. They always seem to fall apart prematurely.

It's definitely the nicer of the two pedals/effects I have, alhough I can't really say I've abused it that much since I bought it. I don't use my effects as much as I used to since my latest bass has an active 3band EQ (which has almost kinda removed my need for an envelope filter/wah sound). I used to sometimes run my bass through it and just sorta leave it at a certain position, it would almost give the same sort of effect as the variable midrange on my bass's EQ.

I still like it though, it's basically 2 pedals in one since it also does distortion on top of the wah and you can choose one or the other or both. Hmm, talking about it makes me want to go play with it now...
