"Manipulating the bloom and gain dials created some formidable fuzz with both basses. Starting with the Warwick fretless, I was able to create tones ranging from synthy P-Funk to flatulent, Les Claypool-like dirt. And when I went to my detuned Nash, boosting the bloom evoked a burly buzz that was capable of handling any stoner-rock gig. I could even cop a Cliff Burton-esque tone by combining the Bass Bloom with a wah pedal. FuzzHugger’s latest offering for bassists also tracked low barre chords and double-stops with quickness and definition."

"After satisfying my ears in the more controlled environment of my practice space, it was time to bring the Bass Bloom to the stage. And not with some clean, fancy-pants rig, but rather a ’70s SVT. Driven by the Nash P through the cranked SVT, the Bass Bloom sounded like a swarm of giant bees flying into a buzz saw. My bandmates laughed in awe of this mighty tone—and then asked me to turn it down. It’s a great feeling when we bassists can sonically intimidate our guitar brethren, and the Bass Bloom proved to be perfectly capable of doing this."
