Guys, they know we're amazeballs.

what are some cheap-ish pedals bassed on a rat?

The super tiny Eno has been good. There is an R.Attack on eBay that gets good reviews. Mooer black secret if you can find one. Or patiently await a Proco to go cheap. I've been usng the Eno for awhile. It's the featured bass tone on our upcoming record

The R.Attack is pretty nice. I have no experience with original Rats, but that clone does exactly what I expected it would.
And you can choose the version: Vintage, Dirty or Turbo.

Actually I was going to have him mod
it with a totally different circuit but after he did a full go through(recap, etc.) he readjusted the bias and got what the fuzz sounds like now. So Im glad he didnt rip it out right away.

IMO stuff doesnt stack well with it. Its a lot more than just a built in OD on a festival or the distortion on a Standard (which is more of an OD to me), giving it some extra grit, its a gnar fuzz.

Did ye try a Rat (or clone) into it?

I'm lovin' my BYOC Mouse. Tons of options. Not dirt dirt cheap and some assembly required though.

Not a rat, but an DOD250 set for a bit of gritty boost was too much.

Good bass day: got a new pwr supply for my (big box) EHX Micro Synthesizer, the old one disappeared. Also NPD, the Morley Cliff Burton Power Fuzz Wah "tribute" showed up.

Got my 3u rack. Less than 24 hours between inquiry here and delivery. That is pretty bad ass.

EHX BMS > Vulcan w/verb = awesome.

Amazing when this happens. You get this from AMS? Had the same thing happen with the mixing board I ordered from them.

I flipped a rat once, never played it.

Unless the boutique options are really spectacular and do something not rat like, a real lm308 equipped rat isn't that expensive, like $60-$120, compared to most copies.

I definitely regret selling my MBS. i bet it sound like a cathedral organ.

Guys, I have an opportunity to get an Ibanez Roadstar II P bass pretty cheap. Not that I really need it, but it's affordable and for sale
Anyone heard something about it? It doesn't seem to be much info about them.
All I found is that they were made from 1983 to 87 and were made in Japan.

Dont tell Laz. He isnt supposed to buy more gear, and it will give him gas.

Hah! I actually owned an '84 at one point. Great bang for your buck P-Bass.

 

[Lazarus.Bird]

And here's a little thread I had back when I got it: http://www.talkbass.com/threads/p-bass-modding-advice.716649/

The one for sale here is exactly the same only lefty.
Man, I'm really trying to justify this purchase. I really don't need a third bass and a second P, but this thing is soooooo cool...
...and affordable...

 

[Blank_0101]

Lefty stuff isn't as common so it might be wise to grab while you can.

 

[Blank_0101]

How creepy doom, someone has hung a skull by a stick and put it in my back yard!

I'm not alone

Nice 630. Need to get my 83 650 refretted.

 

[mc_muench]

Hoping my Tuxedo Bass 300 is waiting for me at home so I can use it for the show tonight.
