Eau Claire Thunder Bass clips!

I got the bare bones of my tiny but some day grand recording station up today! The first thing I did once I got everything working was too share some short clips of this godly fuzz box.

I have not recorded with the feedback switch pressed down but you will get the picture.

Once everything is in its place I will make some longer demo clips with other effects thrown in but this is as simple and raw as I could hack it.

Recording signal is as follows:

G&L ASAT with L2000 pickups - ECT - Ashdown combo amp - Microphone - PreSonus Audiobox USB station - Mac Book Pro

I did one clip with and without the tone blast for both stages of the timewarp switch. I can generally get some cool sounds if I miss with the pickups on my bass but for the most part I kept everything the same so you get a good idea.

The next clips that I will record will be with the ECT and some Dr Scientist Sunny Day Delay behind it because it sounds magical.

This is easily one of the most under appreciated fuzz pedals for bass in my opinion. If I am correct the time warp down is what the HotD is based off of.

The tone blast is a magical switch let me tell you.

Can I ask what your settings are for each of these? LOVE the sound of the first one especially!

Sure! I did not change the settings as I wanted a uniform sound.

Tone 11 o'clock
Trim 10 o'clock
Distortion Max setting
Volume Noon

I do not have an high wattage amp so I can hear the different characteristics of the pedal.

Today I may record the ECT with some delay on it :hello:
