love the velcro fuzz :joy: It should have been named something that really describes the insane ranges of fuzzimess. One minute I'm sounding like kyuss, the next, Electric Wizard. Quite inspiring

Pretty much every pedal I make or buy does this for me to some extent. The first one to completely rock my world was my Big Muff. The most recent one to totally wreck me is my AD-9 Pro.

But I just got my ac30 running again with all new tubes, and the sound I'm getting from it is more inspiring than any pedal I've had. When I turn it all the way up, I enter my happy place.

RRR
Disaster Transport
Fuck od
fuzz huger

Others tooooo but these have had the greatest influence on song writing. I also love love love my RRR, but for doom metalI feel I need a spring reverb so I held on to my ghost echo!!! The RRR has its time in place for other sopping wet guitar lines that aren't the heaviest fuzz of all time.

For me it's a matter of just randomly turning dials on stuff that already makes me happy - I can twist the knobs on my Scrambler, Blender, DE Test Pattern, and Space Echo and presto, I'm happy. Don't look, don't think, hit record or crank the amp or both, and work with where it takes me.

EQD Sound Shank, and more recently, Malekko Echo 600B.
The Sound Shank made me giggle like a schoolgirl, and the Echo...echo...echo dropped my jaw.

The Lunar Echo was one. Great sounding delay that nailed the craziness I'd been looking for, plus whenever I got annoyed with playing I'd just stomp on the take-off switch and enjoy the ensuing chaos.

Goatse didn't get me excited so much about the more standard playing, but I did spend the next few weeks using it to drone everything to hell and back.

How would you compare the regular delay sound of the Lunar Echo to the regular delay sound of the Moog MF-104M?

I didn't understand the awesomeness of Looping or octave up echo or nuthin till I got that pedal, really expanded the way I play
Looping makes you think about every note differently

Monarch as well
Just makes you want to be a heavy dude


Timebender is on sale at Zzounds for $150, I'm trying so damn hard not to order it....I'm already having an Echobase built for me

I think for me, buying a nice guitar really did this. Yeah, I know, not a pedal. But I got a good guitar for the first time in my life, right around the same time as falling madly in love with an FZ-2, and then I suddenly couldn't stop playing guitar. I'd be sitting in class thinking about playing guitar. Fucking GUITAR. NOT BASS.
