In: OCD v4 and Boss PH3
Out. money
Let me know what you think about the OCD man. I LOVE that pedal. Probably my fav OD/dist. It's just got this flavor and tone that bites right through the mix. It does take a little bottom end out but I don't mind for the band I'm in. Running through the B7K, which I know you have, it KILLS IMO. I'll probably use the OCD forever. Well, as long as I use pedals or any type of dist. Between that, my VMT, B7K and ODB3, I'm extremely happy.
I'm thinking the same thing. I can cop the same tones I've been using the ODB3 with with the VMT. Are you tuning yours into a B7K?

In: SFX Micro EQ
Great little thing. It will definitely replace the EHX LPB-1.
How are these same and how are they different? I have an LPB1 but I dig it. Not using on my main board at the moment though.
Well, I use the LPB-1 for two things. First for boosting the input into my Ashdown LB-30, basically acting a a pre-gain, or to boost the input into my Cave Passive Super Grunt.
I love the LPB-1, it is great, cheap, clean. However, I wanted something smaller to accommodate other pedals. I was looking at the JHS Mini Bomb Boost and the SFX Micro Boost. I simply got a good deal on the Micro EQ form the classifieds, much cheaper than ordering a new Micro Boost and it does more than just a normal clean boost with it's EQing capability.
So, basically, I use it as a boost that happens to be clean, small, and can also add EQ capability. Does that make any sense?![]()
I tried an OCD (both my guitarists use them) and liked the tone but couldn't take the low-end loss. I'm going to try out a Fuzzrocious Demon this weekend to see if they've managed to keep the best parts of the distortion tone but preserve the low-end a bit better.
Are u talking about the fulltone OCD or the fuzzrocious oh see demon? Most guitarist use OCD which loses sone low end. The oh see demon from what I understand retains your low end
FYI due to legal matters, from what I understand, it is officially called the "Demon" now and the Demon King remains the OCD clone deluxe pedal.
I have a Demon pedal and it is definitely much more suited for bass than the OCD. If you want more info on it, I recommend looking at the Fuzzrocious club thread.
yeahhhhhh they're not cheap but dood. AMAZING. so much power and different voltage and ac/dc options off of one box.
looooooove mines.
