[iamdenialNJ]

I dunno if a thread like this has been done before but oh well.

Mine was a Boss mt-2 about 10 years ago.

 

[xoloder]

dod 250 in 1983 i think.

 

[Marton]

Boss TU-3

 

[Marginal Tom]

A/DA flanger, in 1979 or 1980. I still have it, but I've never used it live.

 

[DeathFromBelow]

Boss ODB-3, seventeen years ago.

Still got it but don't use it...

Electro Harmonix Bass Synth in 1980 or '81

 

[Munjibunga]

[FrenchAK]

MXR El Grande Bass Fuzz. Spring Break of this year.

 

[Von Felgenhauer]

Zoom 3000B bought when I was 16 in 2000. Just sold it this year.

 

[Pollinator95]

Boss ME-20B. This Christmas, I believe.

 

[Momus]

Boss ODB-3 bought about exactly a year ago.

 

[MK1]

Boss Hyper Fuzz (FZ-2) since then I have always had a fuzz pedal on my board

 

[T. Alan Smith]

[s_mcsleazy]

digitech bass driver. great fuzz sounds. doesnt get used unless im recording because my big muff is too insane for recording

 

[No Malarky]

A 1950 DeArmond 800 Trem Trol - as seen here - Invalid Link Removed. Given to me in 1976 when I was 15. It works like a charm!

 

[cozmic]

EBS MultiComp Compressor. I still use it as an essential piece of my rig.

 

[Toastfuzz]

Ibanez PD-7 Overdrive/Distortion, bought a few months after I started playing bass around 5 years ago. Still have found nothing that can match the kinda compressed heavy metal digital distortion this thing makes, any other fuzz/OD just adds "fuzz" where this one add SLUDDDGGGEE (thats really the only way I can describe it haha)

 

[DiscoFreq]

an Ibanez AF-201 that was sold secondhand in a local shop for only 500 Belgian francs (12.50 euro), 15 years ago
