Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out
- Thread starter Korladis
- Start date
If you are going to stack, an OCD, rat or Tubescreamer sound pretty ****ing rad ran into a big muff.
are you splitting your signal 3 ways? seems like a lot of work. any muff type fuzz with a mid control or tone bypass option would work well.
Well, I only have one pedal right now. But my planned out signal path (for the fuzzes) is: noise gate effect send -> Wounded Paw four way splitter -> 1) Darkglass Duality 2) Big Spider 3) Fuzz Mid pedal 4) Clean signal - > into a Wounded Paw mixer -> noise gate return

Got my Yamaha 80's mini synth keyboard! Butttt
Boss style 9v center negative is actually 9v center positive... Got to find an adapter and get some dollar tree batteries for the mean time.
My drumming is improving but my left hand still beats the right for things it can do
... Anyways, looking for cheap parts to pull the kit together.

sounds like fun but it still seems like too much work for not much benefit. my recommendation is to find one fuzz pedal that you like and keep it simple. stack it with an overdrive pedal for some extra fuzz.
This is my train of thought. I may add more dirt to my board, but if I do, it will be to find dirt that caters to a specific bass. That way I won't have to fudge the settings that work for my Jazz when I want to play my T40.
Don't listen to 'em! Instead get a whole different amp+cab for each pedal!! Cut them in and out individually to serve song dynamics. MEGA RIGG!!!

Mark one side of the power cable with a sharpie, cut it in half, strip some insulation back, twist the wires back together in opposite polarity (sharpie side helps you keep track) and wrap some electrical tape around it or shrink tube if you're fancy. Done. Either that or do the more daring things and reverse the polarity inside the keyboard, which will definitely involve soldering.
that combo is what blew that 18 last night, I dont expect an old BW to hold up against a dimed DOD250 and a tone bypassed WUMBO Muff set for kill, to long. Thats why I bought this guy...
*banana for scale
700 watt handling all the way down to 35hz. Bingo.
Opinions on Rat/Cat Tail for a doom rig? Or should I stick to the Swollen Pickle? I've got it sounding close to my Pharaoh Supreme, so I doubt anyone will notice in the mix. Never tried a Rat, but thinking of one. Which doom bands use one in guitar specifically, as this is for my guitar board? Thanks!
Bongripper. Guitars use rat tails and bass uses a demon.
Though I guess now they use the new bongripper pedal Ryan made that is a cat tail and demon in parallel with a blend and Bongrippers tone settings baked in.
Is the Dunn the muff with mids to get? It sounds real good.(I have not looked at Abominable yet, looking at that next...) What others?
I have a Dunn Blackbeard. It's a rams head muff clone with clip toggle and mids. I like using it as a heavy boost.
I used to have an AE Hail Satan and it was also really good.
Both had mids knobs.
