I used to think the BJF Blueberry was the holy grail bass OD, but the Alfred is IT now. There are clips down the bottom of the page :love: :love: :love:

Better than the BBBOD you say? :whoa:
I'm skeptical, but also very intrigued.

Edit: Now I listened to the clips and I'm interested in getting one but looks like this guy hasn't been on his site in almost two years :mope:

Yeah, he last posted on Talkbass like a year or so ago, but that's the last I heard of him. I sent him an email a good long while back. Now, I haven't tried one personally yet, and all I have to go on is those clips and a short review by a TB user. But man oh man do I want one. And yes, I owned a Blueberry for a while, fantastic pedal.

Mountainking Electronics Super Huge Bass Fuzz.

if you add a compressor after it, in a chain, your lead riffs automatically sound like Wata of boris.

funny thing is, it's labeled ass a bass fuzz, but to me its too gated to be a bass fuzz! :facepalm:
I've got a fuzzbox and i'm not afraid to use it

Just got this old beast and can't find much info on it other than it's some kind of OEM Orpheum / Fuzzrite kinda deal but with a tone control
I've never had a pedal with a tolexed wooden case before...with Mini Moog knobs and the guts wrapped in foam and held in place with electrical tape. All expenses spared.
