I know, right? I went to a show, and saw a band called Drink to Victory, who used the traynor it's based off of, and then another band called Drug Mountain, who's baritone guitar player used a Rusty Box. And, I felt like I was part of this secret of badassery.

What's the hold up???!?!?!?!!
Well I have lots of dirt already that I can use when I "slappa da bass." I don't however, have a good bass octave for example. Really want one though as I know it will add some sweet toans, plus the booost, gah I wish I could try one. Then, being able to use it as the pre to a power/slave makes it that much cooler...as does that iron maiden reference, lol.
Shit, I don't even use it for dirty, I just like the sheer aggression and clank. Plus, with the gain knob at 9 o'clock, lots of headroom for the fuzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

SO much headroom. It just noms up anything I can throw at it. Even the gargantuan amounts of volume from a v4 TAFM.
I'm just going to Necrobump this thread and say that the Rusty Box is amazing.
I could honestly just use the Rusty Box by itself with bass and be 100% okay with that. And with baritone guitar? Shit roars like a lion. It's so flexible in terms of tones as well. It just makes everything sound GOOD.
I've noticed that the tone controls are VERY active/responsive. You can dial out a bit of the clank turning the treble down. I'd be curious to hear it with flats as well
