Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

What does BB mean to you? I had assumed Blower Box, since my post just above yours was talking about it. The Blower Box is a Rat clone, and doesn't have the Big Muff stack.
In short, what new acronym do I need to know?
Sanford and Sonny Bluebeard. The Idiotbox is the flavor of the month now and people are using BB for it and I keep thinking nope wrong.
Oh that sounds sweet. I still want something Dunwich pedal wise, either the Cthulhu or the 120.
Nothing wrong with flavor of the month, only meant it is super popular on TB now. I love me some Idiotbox. I got corrected for calling my Beta a SG Beta because I never heard of whatever company SG is? So I have to write SGFX Beta now LOL.
Just sold my Blower Box. It's a pretty damn good pedal but redundant for me; I just prefer my VT or modded Turbo Rat for ratty tones.
Yeah, I was confused when the Blower Box blew up around here - BB has always been associated with Blue Beard in my head.
Pelham, did you find the Blower Box to be scooped? I have no plans to get one, just curious.

this is the S/D thread, BB will always be Bluebeard!!! 
i wish he would stop messing around and get on with a round of Wizard Fuzzes and ODBs
i'll try and get you a picture....I'm sure Sonny would give you the exact instructions on how to do it.
Yeah, it was a bit more scooped than than my Turbo Rat or VT. It did a great job at holding the lowend, though.

I remember reading about a possible VT/ODB combo. Now that's one I'd be highly interested in.

So, I've finally decided to sell my greenboy 66. Loved the low end, could never get the treble in order. Decided it's time to move on....it's in the classifieds if anyone is interested.
As far as replacement goes, I'm going to be getting a couple of cabs from Dictator cabinets.
They had me test out some of their prototype bass cabs and I was impressed with what they put together. After some notes and testing various size cabs I'm having them make me a 6x10 and 2x15. The 6x10 will be sealed and setup/separated like an original flat back Ampeg 8x10, but with modern speakers, and features like tilt back wheels and such. The 2x15 will be ported and voiced to go super low, they had a prototype 2x15 that I had tested for a little while which is what sealed the deal for me in that I would be satisfied switching to their cabs.
Build quality is top notch on the cabs I tested, they definitely put a lot of time and effort into actually designing cabs meant for bass.
Still gonna be a little bit before I get my hands on the cabs, but I'll of course be posting pics once I do.
I'll be selling my Heritage 8x10 once I get the Dictators as well, but I need something to play through until then.

Sounds good I rather not pay as it's not a hard mod, I think even sonny said the same thing on a page somewhere on here. The second stomp switch is probably how I'll go, I like that it boosts that is good, might dethrone the fabtone. I'll be running a lbp-1 after it and that's it unless I don't even need that.
I take full responsibility for the really high Buy it now price.
