I'm no bassist, but the big Fuck has plenty of bass. I think Jwar might have a demo of it on bass somewhere.neonblack wrote:Until recently I had always thought Mini = bass and Fuck = guitar, so I had never really thought to try a fuck on bass. but lately I really wanna try one.

When I'll sell a few things in the B/S/T, I might order a top mounted jack Mini.
I'm curious about this bias knob.

Re: fuck vs mini
I'm having a hard time telling from demos - is the bias fundamentally different than the crackle? I'd originally thought bias was just a heavy crackle threshold control, but now I'm not sure.

Re: fuck vs mini
Yeah, the bias is different from the crackle. Think of the bias as a 'resolution' knob, if you will. That's at least how I think of it. Kinda makes everything rough around the edges and can get into that splatty territory but works differently

Re: fuck vs mini
the mini bias is a regular bias that sort of chokes and starves the signal in a reasonably predictable way, similar to various fuzz bias/starve sounds but with a jfet flavour
the fuck crackle is completely different, up switch is like an additional buzzing, like a loose cable/grounding or something. down switch is more of signal cut and crackle, like an overloaded circuit that chokes out and sputters.
the up switch particularly is more pronounced at lower gains.
there is a sweet spot for each setting where the gain/threshold levels are perfectly balanced that you can drive it into crackle with a stronger hit, or a stronger input level from chords

Re: fuck vs mini
well put. the fuck simply puts the bias knob under envelope control, which is where all of that weirdness comes from.Doctor X wrote:the mini bias is a regular bias that sort of chokes and starves the signal in a reasonably predictable way, similar to various fuzz bias/starve sounds but with a jfet flavour

Re: fuck vs mini
I got my Fuck today! I was planning on running it at the end of my chain like I see so many people do, but it got mushy and squishy when I hit it with my TAFM. I moved it to the front of my chain and

Just goes to show everyone's setup is different.
Oh, and zero low end loss as far as I can tell.

Just ordered a Fuck. This'll be my first SSBS and I couldn't be more stoked for it.

Re: fuck vs mini
I just wanted to chime in and say that I didn't really bond with my Mini, but I got a Fuck today and I love it. I could listen to Bass VI going through a crackle-heavy Fuck all day.
Never thought I'd love an OD, but this thing is sooo up my alley.
