[Chankgeez]

Nah.

[UglyCasanova]

UC, go get a BAT Revelation Superbass and thank me later.

It's too big, brah!

[Chankgeez]

You guys and your compact pedals....you're compromising.

[Iommic Pope]

Amendment: BAT Mark posted some compact (regular sized) versions of things at the last NAMM, maybe email him and ask him if the revelation will be available in that format soon.

I wasn't still talkin' about pedals.

I'm kinda diggin' this Asher guitar that Natalie Maines's playin' (probably because of that Charlie Christian style pickup in the neck) ':

[Iommic Pope]

not sure i follow the convo but i think for a light OD the revelations clip too much.

They got a nice grit for bass at the low end of the dial, it's more the workout it'll give the output section of your amp. Volume in spades, as is the BAT rule.
Oh wait, UC, you tube or solid state?
Probably not gonna be amazing on SS.
You will get a lot of clipping that won't sound as nice.

Plus you're asking me and my idea of low gain OD for bass is the intro to Kylesa's Unkown Awareness.

Chank.

That is a nice guit.

It's one of those weird, later Trace Elliot GP12 SMX's that have a single 12AX7 and a solid state FET in the preamp that you can blend between (which I do, although I keep the knob slightly more towards the valve section)....sooo, both?

[Iommic Pope]

Nah you need valve output to really understand BAT stuff.
Like it doesn't sound terrible with SS stuff, but you get the boner factor once your tubes start melting.
Maybe one of those Big Game Cvlt preamps?

[coldbrightsunlight]

I kinda want a light OD for my bass board. Just to add a little texture for the few times I play clean/non-fuzzy. Small enclosure is good. Top mounted is cool. Suggestions? I'll need demos.

Barbershop

This. No better light OD than this.

Bass demo? I believe I only found crap ones. Driving Notion still in the lead, although I understand it's not really a light OD. I really didn't love Mini on guitar, at all. Pluss, I'm already riding BriBri's boner hard with a Buzzz and a TAFM on my board.

HM-2 is not for me, drunk Nils. We have one in the rehersal space and yeah...no.

The DN isn't just a light od but on bass it does a great job of it. then it's also a sweet fuzz machine!

It is important to love clank for days though.

[UglyCasanova]

I have the PY on my guitar board.

Mini has a brassy voicing and weird break-up that isn't for me. I am aware that I only played it on guitar, so I could like it more on bass. It just didn't have that immediate 'holy shit' feel that I've gotten from the other five SSBS pedals that I currently own and use extensively.

Also, dat new Soopah Wizard.
