B:Assmaster is a Brassmaster. Best fuzz ever, it won't not cut through a mix. I haven't not gigged with this pedal for a decade.

Depth Charge is a Super-Fuzz type of thing. Thicker yet spittier than the Assmaster. More crunge. I don't know what that means.

I have two each. All four of them fucking rule. Any time of day and for all of said days: dirty blends > clean blends :omg:

Maybe you needed something to push it harder to cut through your mix? I think it's best for recording personally or for spots in songs where the bass can actually be heard and not buried by guitars and drums. LOL! So, I definitely feel you there. I find the same issue occurs with most dirt and bass depending on who you are playing with. I can be right up on my amp with my cousins Bad Cat amp and I can't hear shit from mine because his is sooooo raspy and loud.



I need to try the Assmaster again.

I'm not sure of specific artist outside of Trent because I was looking for something super specific, but I know a lot of bass players have used them. Jeff (Mr. Excane) might know a bunch. Jeff why the fuck haven't you chimed in here? COME ON!
Didn't see this until now.
I have no idea what's up with this new venture but I'm intrigued.

I stockpiled PE pedals way back when I fell in love with the Depth Charge. I own 5 of them.

Dan who owned Pedalgeek used to tell me in person all the time what a character Jack was.
He apparently didn't even have email, only a phone number. Dan never knew what pedals he was getting, colors, version, amount, etc.

I talked to Jack on the phone for a total of 3 minutes back in 2006ish- sounded like a batshit crazy mad scientist.

And just to hear how amazing the Depth Charge can sound, check this out.
If you pause around the 1:31 mark and a few other spots, you can see the old orange Depth Charge below Trent on the floor.

You should try to get 'em to send you free pedals so you can make some videos. :poke: :snax:

Yeah I’ve seen that. I’ve sent 2 emails within a few days of each other to both email addresses they have on their site.....Haven’t received a response yet.
I didn’t even ask about doing demos....just wanted to know if they’re planning on bringing back tha fuckin DEPTH CHARGE :animal:
