Giving up on the Timeline? Or is the Tentacle a business venture?

I still need to pick up a parallel looper, a Prunes & Custard (only thing I ever regret flipping), and then am toying with getting a compressor or not getting a compressor. I might look into an envelope filter....on the fence about that, too.

Once those are squared away, my board will be "complete" and I'll just be in a constant state of improving what I have.

I'll do that!

Yeah let me know whenever. We have noise jams once every few weeks at the shop, I bring out all the weird pedals for those occasions. Or beers, whatever.

Oh good lord...serious?

Including the hard case yeah, I actually weighed it when I was typing that up just to confirm.

The board is currently 14 pounds and the case is another 20ish. I used the soft case for a year or so but once I picked up the big metal thingy I never looked back. Plus it can be covered in STICKERS!

WTF!! I have written this 3 times now. I PMed about the MeatWad Sousa. I would have to sell my BEF Pro, I already have a buyer if I want to. What makes this hard is that I Use the LFO and Step Sequencer on that pedal a bunch, so it's not a no-brainer like I wish.

Gawd that board.

Nad is your assmaster silicon or germ?

OH FUCK FROSTWAVE FOR SALE ON TB. I can't resist that. I haven't even plugged in my Blue Ringer for over a year, but that is one pedal I'll NEVER sell. Toomuchawesomeomg.

Checked out the Robot Factory stuff too, pretty amazing prices.

On the board is silicon. Best. Fuzz. EVER. Still the king for me. The double germanium I just got is in the Markbutt clip above, and is god damn amazing.

I had a regular germanium at one point, wasn't really that impressed. Actually it was sold to me as a double germ, and I quickly sold it to the next dude as a double germ, but now 3 years later I realize no, it was NOT a double germ that I had. Sounded nothing like this one.

B:Assmaster rankings:
silicon
double germ
germanium

I still love and abuse my Silicon version. Love love love it. I want to try one of the extended frequency silicon versions someday, but I'll still never get rid of mine.

My double germ has the extended lows thingy, I haven't tried it in a band mix yet but I kinda know what to expect, I think?

To me part of the love of the OG silicon is the fact that it doesn't have a perfectly retained low end. Gives it that super-mid-forward thing that punches ugly children in the mouth!

Or something.

True. I love the filtery sputtery edge it gets when you turn down the sensitivity knob. Makes it cut like no other.

Yarp. The only downside to a silicon Assmaster is that it doesn't make me breakfast in the morning after having its way with me again and again each night. But that's a minor complaint at best, I'm more than okay with this particular variety of continuous rape.

I took it off for a spell but then missed it too much, it's the only HEAVY fuzz I've ever used that actually works in a mix for me. I'm always drawn to heavy, thick, high gain fuzz pedals but they are only fun at home really.

Same, I keep trying other fuzzes too and when it comes to playing with el bandz it just works! My secondary fuzz fuzz ATM is a Eau Claire Thunder and while I really love the sound it doesn't sit as well... It's funny I think I have spent more $$$ on my secondary fuzz [fuzz for more extreme fuzzies] then my main fuzz or my synth fuzz... AND I"M STILL NOT 100% happy

That is kickass. It's cool you've got it down to a nice easy to move around setup... I on the other hand am looking to go bigger...
