I (and a lot of others I believe) use the Boneshaker more like a parametric dirty boost. Gain down, volume dimed...rules.

Didn't get one either because they are still original price over here, which, at this point, is just super weak.

More of an heavy higher gain doomy overdrive tbh. And like previously stated... rules as a gritty EQ/Boost. I have also used it as a Bass Pre-amp.

This year I bought...
a big box rat
a ibanez de7
a dod fx65
a mxr blue box
So I've been travelling backwards through time in general but I also visited the future where I purchased a tiny ammoon looper made by Chinese children.

I didn't buy any gear this year I'm pretty sure, but I did get a cat.

I mean, I connected with a lot of stuff and still flipped it. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

A ton of my list is stuff I still have though. Which is equally as fucked up.


I also think the question you posed is accurate. :)

Only thing I got I don't like is the MXR Phase 95. Doesn't sound great on bass. Bought it without trying it from a coworker. I'll eventually flip that when I stop being lazy. I want the new Dunwich Phaser. I actually got to try that and it is thick enough to handle bass.
