I am quickly becoming a FuzzHuggerBeliever.
I found a used absynth and algal bloom recently.
While the agal bloom totally destroys on bass,
the absynth makes for more interesting demo fodder. :omg:

AWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESOME! I sometimes miss my AB-Synth but our parting was for the best... LOL! :lol: You should also post this in the Fuzzhugger forum, Tom would love that (and us bass players too). :thumb:

[Note from Tom: In a sweeping abuse of power, I've merged the two threads! :) And I'm posting this update/explanation in your post!!! Hi Steev!]

talkbass.com told me that there is a mod for bass?
Color me interested!
Is it something I could do myself to save on shipping and your time?

Please let me know! and thanks for the great fuzz!

Thanks! I was amazed that one lick could create such different sounding lines depending on the bass' volume knob setting.
I was literally playing that same simple lick over and over again.
Check my youtube account for some more interesting bass/effects demos if you get a chance.
I will add more as I get a chance.

Thanks Again to you, bassfuzz-friend! :yay: I don't want to over spam my demos but this should have gone here orig.
Fwiw I have a metric-sh*t-ton of fuzz and want to demo them all for bass players out there.
Its good to know people will check them out and make it worth my while.

You did the Ring Thing demo on TB, right? if so, Thank you, you made my mind up about that pedal, I need it :) I was on the fence up until I saw your demo. (sorry to go off topic).

Yeah! Awesome.. I love that thing (of the ring). :love:
I really need to do more demos of that. I did about 9 showing all my settings but then found out the camera mic was clipping on ALL of them. :cry:
I will redo them as I get a chance.

Thanks for the welcome and compliment MLC! :thumb:
This AB-synth seems to be a custom ordered one. It has Aztec or Mayan graphics in blood red.
I don't know why anyone would sell such a cool pedal but.. 'tough times' I guess. :idk:

Cool! Will do! :animal:

Hear hear!!!

Awesome demo! :omg: Glad you're enjoying the AB-Synth!

Yep, that's a custom ordered one-off...with the Master Gain upgrade!

About the bass/voice toggle mod, it's something you can do if you're comfortable drilling and soldering a bit. I can provide instructions and even sell you the parts pre-assembled if you'd like. I've also modded AB-Synths many times aftermarket. Just send me an email!

Thanks Tom! :joy:
I will be sending you an email about modding this further for bass soon!
You make killer pedals. Keepers. For. Sure. :love:
