Dicksniffers Anonymous AKA The Bone Zone

[beezlebub]

To be clear, dicksniffer is not a negative. At least, in my book. And my book is just a notebook where I draw pictures of boners.

I think it's cool though, that this is probably the only place where it's cool to have a Styron next to a boss and an ehx and whatever-the-fuck fuzz and some shit you made or modded yourself, taped to cupboard door. It's about utility and what sounds you can get out of it over just pissing up flagpoles about how much you spent on it, just to play SRV covers or be lame-dick David Gilmour impersonator of the week.
We are real people.
We like real sounds.
We sniff real dicks.

I'm proposing for the next round of ILF shirts we get "Dick Sniffer" printed on the back.

[humandingus]

is it bad that i'll drop $400+ dollars on a pedal in the blink of an eye when i totally can't afford to do so and sleep like a baby? and yet when i'm at the grocery store i'll get buyers remorse if i spend too much money on avocados or something?

I'm sure we've all noticed the amount of high end TGP-core corksniffer pedals around here lately. Klons and Strymons and the like. So much that we have a new term: dicksniffer (or bonersniffer)

So, what are you guys doing with them? Let's see those Dickgaze boards, people! Clips! Tips! Shafts! Balls!

Why "dicksniffers" and not "cocksniffers"?

Perhaps that would be too obvious a riff off of "corksniffers". Which isn't Illuminati-Level Fuzz enough?
Or is "cocksniffer" redundant, like saying Klon Klone? Since anyone who takes the time to smell their pedals is obviously a dicksniffer.

But don't be so quick to dismiss khaki pants as laughable. It's the only way to dissuade people from sniffing your dick.

Cocksniffers would have been good. I don't know why I started this thread. Boredom at work I suppose.

Boredom at work is as good a reason as any.

This thread is hilarious

There is so much truth in this. I get pedals for their more extravagant/unique settings or their ability to do both pristine and extreme. This means I have some expensive pedals on my board but I prefer not to talk much about pricing when people ask me about my pedals at gigs etc. because I don't want it to seem like I only got them to show off, because I didn't. I ain't one of those guys who buys a €400 OD pedal and goes forth to play classic rock or old blues covers with a mild, 'transparent', uses-NOS-from-the-50s-germanium-transistors-but-is-completely-noise-free-if-you-play-it-in-a-freezer pedal. I'm one of those guys who buys a €400 fuzz because of the squeals I get when I hit that second (or third ) footswitch and go all twisty & turny with my volume knob. Especially with a modulated delay/resonant filter or some other wacky stuff after it.

Not that there's anything wrong with classic rock or blues, I just think sterile blues is the worst blues.

[Iommic Pope]

Yeah, obviously expensive doesn't=awful, but neither does cheap equate to heinous.
Sound quality is a fluid notion anyway. Obviously there is stuff that sounds like shit in a shit way, and there is stuff that sounds like shit in the most delightful way possible.
Plus people around here know that there's more than one way to skin a cat, or get that function out of that pedal. or use that pedal in an atypical way to produce an interesting texture or what have you.

I think you're over-politicising this, BUT

I like where you're going with that.

You started this because you are beautiful and brilliant! Anyone that tells you otherwise is, well, a dick.
Or a cock.
Some kind of awkard and ire work of external genitalia.

This is now replacing "Guitar. Effects. Love." for our slogan, right?
