FUCKING SWEET!


I know, right? I went to a show, and saw a band called Drink to Victory, who used the traynor it's based off of, and then another band called Drug Mountain, who's baritone guitar player used a Rusty Box. And, I felt like I was part of this secret of badassery.

I really need one of these still. Sadly it will prob be on of the last bass pedals I get (of my next planned 3).

Well I have lots of dirt already that I can use when I "slappa da bass." I don't however, have a good bass octave for example. Really want one though as I know it will add some sweet toans, plus the booost, gah I wish I could try one. Then, being able to use it as the pre to a power/slave makes it that much cooler...as does that iron maiden reference, lol.

Shit, I don't even use it for dirty, I just like the sheer aggression and clank. Plus, with the gain knob at 9 o'clock, lots of headroom for the fuzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

SO much headroom. It just noms up anything I can throw at it. Even the gargantuan amounts of volume from a v4 TAFM.

Ok guys you're not making it any easier :grumpy: lol

Good question, cause I will likely be using it equally for both.

I've never got a better guitar tone than that from my Rusty Box through a ton of 15s. Just bassy enough, still really trebly.

I've found that the Box really livens up the clean tone when placed in front of my amp. The amp feels much bigger.

I'm just going to Necrobump this thread and say that the Rusty Box is amazing.

I could honestly just use the Rusty Box by itself with bass and be 100% okay with that. And with baritone guitar? Shit roars like a lion. It's so flexible in terms of tones as well. It just makes everything sound GOOD.

I really want a Rusty Box but I don't like clankytoans :(
Not when I'm playing anyway.
Wonder if it sounds okay with flats...

I've noticed that the tone controls are VERY active/responsive. You can dial out a bit of the clank turning the treble down. I'd be curious to hear it with flats as well

I know the rusty box probably has a more robust EQ section, but in terms of sound how does it compare to the Fuck?

I have the idea of just getting a power amp and one of these.
