How is your 616 different from the 'stock' one?

Wishbasses make me angry.
So does that V-neck Dutch guy. I can't remember his username...
He's probably a perfectly okay dude but his pictures are always annoying for some reason.

I actually dig the ideas guys like him are doing... I just wish they would go for more interesting "tonez" Why must it always be "that" sound...

Jean actually rocks a lot of effects now. he's got a pretty cool pedalboard, he was the driving force behind the Expressionator getting built, and he does some really neat things that are better suited to solo stuff than in a band mix.

plus, i'm jealous of his skeelz.

lulz. he's got my Blargotronatronatronatronatron until Bri's got time to make him one too.

That's rather cool.

Still why always the chirpy clean sound? I want to know.

that was from NAMM last year. i've known him for (way too many, makes me feel OLD) years, but we just started talking again around that time. since then he's gotten into a lot more angry toanz. i think he's just using some reverb there? but he's got at least an Oxide, Frantabit and Blargotronatron on his board right now. haven't heard any of his newer stuff, maybe he's going a more CAHHLAHHNNNNNG route?

Well that is good to hear and I'll dig around. I am singling him out because I sort'a see him as the leader [of late] in the ERBP world or atleast the most interesting. To me he puts a lot more energy into it then most

Oh HELL yeah...I see stuff like that and I think about my playing and it's like...y'all are on the same planet?

How old is Jean?

Best I can tell, it's designed to self-oscillate constantly. You know those one delay pedals that you have to convince to get into self-oscillation? This one is the opposite, it's actually difficult not to self-oscillate. It's neat, but I only do noise/delay stuff every so often. Regular 616 suits me better. Ekko 600 Dark takes the crown, if he made them again, I would buy a second one. That one self-oscillates with an intense thickness, every other delay pedal I've used goes bird chirpy in that realm, which I'm not really a fan of.

Jean is the man. I don't care about his solo stuff, but Nuclear Rabbit are the god damn cheese:

I prefer my designer basses passive with flatwounds, without any god damn tweeters. It's like expensive bourbon. Sure, it's fancy, and perhaps even unnecessary. But that shit still gets you fucked up.

Didn't he use effects when he was in that band... Ah I can't remember the name. I remember reading a feature on the prp about them ages ago, and it had a song called "flip the switch." found it. Element of surprise. I guess I don't remember if he used effects, but I know I thought the bass sounded crazy. Ya know, ten years ago...

yah. i played in a band that played with Nuclear Rabbit a buncha times. good stuff. they kill. yah, pretty sure he rokked some effects in EOS too. i think he's not used much fuzz or dirt before though? dunno.

and yeppers. his solo stuff is super impressive, but i'm gonna get a lot more out of hearing stuff in a band context. i'm not much of a Listen To Solo Bass Players guy i guess. unless it's somebody doing it over IDM or weird electro stuff. but then it's not really solo anymore.

Fat, Nasty Hobbit Cockessessess!!!

i've had "I Saw James Hetfield In The Supermarket" stuck in my head for about 3 weeks now.

you guys are making me blush.

mudfuzz - namm kind of sucks for trying to get a good sound... especially at a bass speaker booth, where the namm sound police are stopping by every 5 minutes because another endorser was playing way too loud (and bragging about it on his twitter) and your turn comes up and the owner of the company is all paranoid that his booth is going to get shutdown and asks you to play for a very short amount of time at a volume that someone watching could snap their fingers and it would have more "bass" (no, I'm not bitter). youtube "flip the switch eos" which has a ring mod and formant filter or "nuclear rabbit samurai robotics" which is a thick fuzz. over the years, I've use flangers, phasers, distortion/fuzz, delay, octavers, etc. on various recordings. the solo bass cd has mostly delay and reverb for effects but there is some reverse delay. does the studio version of that song sound "chirpy" to you? as far as the erb scene - honestly, I'm not into bass music AT ALL (no matter the number of strings) so I don't even pay attention to what my contemporaries are doing, hope that doesn't sound like I'm jerk - I just don't get into it I mainly do it because maintaining a band most of the time sucks and provides a good challenge for me to try and write interesting music by myself and if other people like it =
