skullservant wrote:$30 for LEDS?? It cant be THAT much for 2 3DPT's, 2 resistors, 2 LED holders and some extra wire... But I suppose if you have a bunch of no-LED pedals ready to ship...


It's not 30 bucks at all. Laugh out fucking loud! Hahahaha.

I'm going to mod mine myself. I was just being lazy. I've already got a ton of LED's (like hundreds of them), bezels...the hole nine yards.

I actually thought about doing something similar as well. My idea was to have a looper or something else real simple, but have tons of LED's everywhere on it. Oh and I want to put it in the most ridiculously large enclosure I could find.

I am stupid. Apparently the jacks are top mounted already lol, it's just the pic on Audio Monk's own website that threw me off, showed side mounted. Anyways, $30 for LEDs he says, I do think this might be the next fuzz for me. Are there any other superfuzz based pedals that sound this good on bass?


The jacks originally were side mounted. Mine was the first that he changed the jacks on (and put LED's in)
Since then, I guess he realized it was a much better space saver and redid the silk screen so the arrows point up top.

If you look at my demo, even though the jacks are top-mounted the enclosure still has the arrows in the silk-screen pointing to the sides. I didn't give a shit about it at the time :lol:

I will say that Dwarfcraft is definitely a good route to go for thick, meaty, brutal as fuck fuzz. I still want to do an all Dwarfcraft board in the future. Someone needs to hurry up on that delay though. :)

I need a big doomy fuzz for bass that maintains mids, note definition, works great with actives, and possibly is in a small mxr enclosure with top mounted jacks.
Hmm, just remembered the TAFM. HMMMMMMMMMMM?
Dunno guys, I'm pretty much lost here.

I'm not a bass player and I don't know how it works for actives but maybe the Baby Thundaa?

Fuzzpotion is FANTASTIC with actives. It borders on distortion, so it doesn't clip like a heavy gated fuzz would.

TAFM or super puzzle would do the trick, love some super fuzz w/ octave on bass. :thumb:

Calling Excane and anyone else who might have hands on with *both* the Fuzz Potion and the Heavy Machine. One of these is my next pedal, between the two which one has bigger bottom and can either of them dial in a tight sound for fast bass parts, and/or which can get tight 'better'.
I've been searchin' for the dolphins in the sea.
