Black Arts Toneworks BLACK FOREST

[MaxMaps]

The black sparkle Black Forest. Shouldn't be long now.

that is a BAD ASS finish.

[Bassus Sanguinis]

wow

[sutarappa]

Rash said it earlier, but I think another good GODDAMN! for the production artwork is warranted.

[Holy Schnikes]

So I'm still waiting to lay ears on the Black Forest (which I pre-ordered regardless) and I hear via Jason's FB (Mark's art guy) that B.A.T. is coming out with the Sarcophagus next!?!?!?

I don't even know what it is (IC Muff is my guess) and I'm interested. WTF? Stop Mark, please.

[shardy]

cant wait for both Sarcophagus and Black Forest!!!! Im in Preordering hell

[Holy Schnikes]

Im in Preordering hell

Haha, I'm right there next to ya!

[BlindtoFaith]

I have a super duper package coming from Mark real soon. First round is a LSTR, Pharaoh and Uni-Drive/Doom-Drive pedal some dude made for Mark. Then when the Black Forest is dropped I have one of those on the way! I WILL make my dirt selection BAT only!

I WILL make my dirt selection BAT only!

Same here, all my dirt will be BAT and all modulation will be earthquaker!!!! i can't wait, i've already got it all planned out including loops to chain pedals I can't wait to find out more info on the sarcophagus i hope it's some kind of dark sounding booster designed to be put inline directly after the pharaoh, cause that's the only way i see the name being fitting.... that way all the pedals will kind of tell a story, you enter the black forest, get molested, become pharaoh and then end up in the sarcophagus.

[shardy]

hope Mark releases both Black Forest and Sarcophagus REAL soon because im missing my fuzzyness on the board right now.
My damn bassist stole the pharaoh from me ...

[Ancient Astronaught]

Black forest is set for a september 19th release date last i heard. Sarcophagus is probably 2 to 3 months out, and preorders will def help get that pedal into motion sooner too, but those will be waiting on info as to what IT is.... I really hope he starts looking at modulation pedals, so that way i can custom order a phaser/delay/reverb pedal then the only thing on my board non BAT will be my tuner lol

Awhile back, before the LSTR was conceived, Mark mentioned some upcoming projects. These included a Pharoah + Boost, IC Muff, and a Fuzz Face with a bax tone stack. Not sure what he got around to actually designing.

[Ancient Astronaught]

Well from what i gather the black forest is made to be a booster, and the lstr is a muff variant, so maybe the sarcophagus will be the fuzz face with the bax tone stack. That would be pretty wicked. I'm also hoping for a rat variant like he made for my friend James Haun of Sourvein, that custom Gemini pedal Mark made for him is a pharaoh into a rat variant and it is siiiiiiiiick.

[Zounds Perspex]

hmm, I wanna try this, A-B with the ol' Doomidrive.

The Rat variant sounds super SICK, I'd love one of those. Somehow, I've lived without one for many, many years. B.A.T.'s take on it would be a must have.

And there are plans for an IC Muff, yet another variant beyond the LSTR and Pharaoh. Who knows when though. I need a good Fuzz Face, hoping it's that actually...

100% agreed!

I'm glad BAT is taking off, he's really captured what alot of people are looking for and i'm an avid supporter. Not only does he make great product's but he's a stand up guy himself and answers his own email's, whether i use them or not (which i most likely will in the studio or live) i will probably end up ordering everything he makes, i just hope he doesn't stick with only doing dirt pedal's i would love to see him expand out to a full line of pedals.
