I got mine out of storage recently and been using it on my guitar. Sounds so great. It was my only pedal for bass but now that I'm playing mostly guitar it's paired with cheap Behringer pedals lol. Also, not sure what about mine is different, but when I ordered it he wrote a note on the inside saying the bass blossom* was different. Cool pedal for sure.

Sounds awesome Sam! How would you compare he bluebeard to the wizard? Is the wizard muffish at all?


the big box Wizard is not muffish at all. the 125B wizard has a bit more mid scoop and sizzle to my ears which brings it closer to a muff but still not what i would call a muff. The big box wizard has more mids, more of a woody tone and sounds and feels more like an amp being pushed than a pedal. The 125B is nice but sometimes i wish i had just rehoused the big box WF into something more pedal board friendly.

We could swap your 125B for a 1590BBM version. That version is like the big box version but just in the smaller format.

So I don't want to hijack this thread but is the 125b Wizard a different circuit than the big box? Originally I thought it was just a smaller enclosure, with a blend and the continuous blend opposed to the rotary knob. Either way, I'm loving mine..I was moreso just curious

Well you basically just said it, there is the addition of the blend, and the continuous depth knob both of which color the sound compared to the original big box WF.
