I know J. Mascis has one though I am missing a couple Dino CD's so my resources are limited ~Bug, Green Mind, Where you Been, Without a Sound, and Beyond. O.o

I know it was used on Melvins's Eggnog [can't remember which song] because I remember reading a interview with Buzz where he said that was the sound that the buzz box was made to get which was a Blue Box into a rat. He later said that he ended up breaking the Buzzbox and ended up once again using the Blue Box > Rat combo because he wasn't going to go out and buy his own damned pedal :lol:

I'm sure I read somewhere that Trent Reznor used to use a Blue Box a lot on earlier NIN records, but I'm not sure about that. I doubt he uses it or needs to use it now, considering all the crazy gear he has, but that was definitely the reason that I bought mine! And listening to some of those crazy tones he gets, particularly on The Fragile, it does make me wonder whether the little blue box had anything to do with it.

Rory Gallagher used one. I'm pretty sure that's a BB on Stage Struck -- listen to the solo on Wayward Child.
