Are any of the pedals in the Devi Ever line up any good for bass? Most of the reviews I've found are on Talkbass, and I read that the low end gets cut when engaging such fuzz boxes. What say you, ILF? Seems like the Soda Meiser would be pretty good, but what do I know? I'm just some snot-nosed kid.

Soda Meiser ain't bad. The warhorse would probably be cool too since it's got a tone control and footswitchable chaos.
I had a Bit that wrecked on bass, but other demos I've heard haven't sounded nearly as good as the one I had

& the Aenima sounds so sweet on bass, but yeah not crazy on the low end.

Maybe that Stone she just started up again. Soda meiser with a dark boost I believe. That's gotta have some mind of bass. Ducks

I loved the Vintage Fuzz Master (or whatever it's called) on bass - beastly, scrambly goodness. Not unlike a Brassmaster on certain settings, but without the clean blend & other extras. Also dug the Cherry Pop, which was some SM+DB permutation with a crazy deep tone stack, but it tended to get super-scooped, and would often wash out in full band settings (which is too bad, because the fuzz itself was pretty damned fantastic). The Ruiner (DB+DB) is awesome for synth-bass toanz. I dug the Hyperion, but I don't know if I ever tried it in a full band setting.

Yeah, I'm kinda interested in the Aenima now 'cause of kbi, but out of the SM/VFM/TP/SM/DB/Ruiner....none of them stuck.
I like how wild her fuzzes are, but they don't seem to, or didn't seem to fit my style at the time. Maybe the Aenima will change things, I dunno.
Dark Boost was the most bass-friendly one I had, but it always seemed to kill any highs and articulation in my signal, and I think I already run my jank a bit muddier than usual...it was just too much. It didn't feel like a bass boost so much as a "the only knob turned up is the bass one".

Super Massive Black Hole/Bass Fuzz. discontinued, would probably need to start a WTB thread.
Soda Meiser is good with the texture rolled back. the new Sozo Meiser will have more low end available. Cherry Pop is a discontinued pedal that was the Soda Meiser with a Tone control. Lots of peeps loved that one.
Ruiner, possibly Dark Boost for more of an overdrive.
The Stone should be pretty good for bass.
EDIT: Oh yeah, the Wolf is her current pedal that is specifically designed for Bass.

Soda Meiser and VFM are my favorite fuzz and bass fuzz pedals ever.

The 33/Silver Crank/Soda Might sounds really good on bass. The Heroin Lifestyle would probably be even better.

Yes, Delaware is fine for bass. Just as good as any other state, maybe even a little bit better?

I had good results with the Hype, the Bass Fuzz/SMBH, Bit, Aenima and VFM. But then again, I never minded if a pedal cut a little bit of the low-end rumblies, because that's not the bass tone I generally go for anyways.

Man. This thread makes me wish I never got rid of my crazy modded shoegaze now...

Disaster Fuzz completely cuts low end.
