2 pedals one box bass fuzz/vorpal fuzz

Post by eatyourguitar »

I just stumbled upon the vorpal fuzz. pretty cool. its useful in understanding the fuzz factory. CJ says it has lots of bass on tap that doesnt show up in the clip. I can kinda get an idea from the clip though. then I was thinking about a channel switching style 2in1 pedal with a bass fuzz :idea: 4 knobs 2 footswitches on a 1590BB. I'm hoping that they are similar enough but different enough that you would want to switch between them. my only concern is that the bass fuzz is mainly for bass and drop tune guitars. should I make any small changes to the bass fuzz to make it more useful on guitar? should I add another knob to the bass fuzz? not sure what mods people have tried for the bass fuzz.

Maybe lower the caps in the bass fuzz so its not quite as in-yo-face-bass. I don't know without having both in front of me to test. Never built a bass fuzz and never got the vorpal to work properly.

Im talkin about the silicon fuzz factory thing on culturejam's site. Its less knobs more bass with transistors that dont cost $5 each. The bass fuzz is so small i figure i could put them both in one box on perf
