smallsound/bigsound just fucking rule

Post by goosekevin »

soon they will completely own the drives/fuzz of my board
these are the perfect pedals in my mind (i currently have a fuck and a sparkle motion)
they play well will bass and guitar

hopefully i will have some funds to buy a TAMF very soon!

Keep up the good work bri, can't wait to see what you come up with next :)

I only just got the chance to pick up a mini but HOLY FUCK, easily the most versatile and useful dirt pedal I have ever owned. Plus it looks goddamn awesome.
Now I REALLY want a TAFM..

I sold my TAFM. And I started moving into heavier shit. Like...insanely heavy fuzz pedals. Saturated and just destructive.

And then it just hit me one day.......this shit destroys my band. It sounds awesome as hell in my bed room but it's just too much with my bass and trying to fit in with two guits. So I'm back to the TAFM. So versatile. And it gets just destructive and saturated enough where it is pushing the "is that too much?" convo, but can be backed down in the sweet spot that still slays but doesn't bury the other guys.

Love this thing.

It's on my board for the very foreseeable future.

dude! you all fucking rule for making it happen! it's a reciprocal relationship... :group:

also MSU - that's rad to hear you're back to the TAFM! i originally made it for my old band's bassist, so the focus was always on fitting in the gnar well with a band. i typically try out new pedal ideas in band rehearsals - obviously we're not playing the same music as everyone else but if it at least fits in there, i assume it will fit with other band settings as well...

Did not know exactly where to write, But I have had my Fuck + Tafm now for a couple of months.
When people said they always kept Fuck on, I thought " no way. I cant think of any pedal I would always leave on."
Well now its always on. Cannot imagine playing without the Fuck in my setup now.

And Tafm after reverb is becoming a important part of my sound as well.

Everything else in my setup I could probably change for something else, but not those two.

I fell back in love with the crackle feature of the Fuck, I personally couldn't do with out it. Throw in a shit ton of fuzz and reverb with the crackle and you have an extremely musical exploding amp experience. The bassist of one of my bands exclusively rocks the TAFM for his do-it-all fuzz!
Fuzz, reverb, delay.

It's a really interesting pedal. When I had one on loan I couldn't find much of a use for it but that was probably more me not having enough time/not figuring out the controls well enough. I'm sure I'll get interested and try one out again in the future, blending the craziness with a normal fuzz tone is awesome.

Ugh, yes it does. So psyched to have one coming back my way again.
