Sinking story short I'm starting up with my old band again and I'm in need of a new drive. I'm playing a 51 reissue into a traynor bass master with an svt 4'10 cab. I'm lookin for a new drive for a large gain range that's friendly on a budget. Like under 100.

The other drive on my board is a diabolick and a hotone fuzz(which is actually pretty dope)

Also I have a few Laying around that I've tried but maybe ain't doin right. I got a rat, boss od3(which I used to use but it looses too much low end) , a vintage ts9, boss sd1, and i think that's it.

So give me some thoughts

EQ pedal and use what you got?

What kind of bass toanz you trying to get?

My instinctive knee-jerk response is to sell the pedals you're not using, and use the money to buy either a Dr. Scientist Elements or an EQD Talons. Either have a ton of EQ flexibility and love bass as much as guitar. The Elements has a low-gain setting that's great for OD.

Between the two of them, The Elements is more like a punch from a brick fist, and the Talons is a little more amp breakup-ish.

If you're looking at EQD give the Zap Machine a shot. I have a v1 I use on bass all the time: loses no low end, ton of gain range, very touch-sensitive, tons of headroom.

Why have a bunch of $100 pedals you don't use when you can get one $200 pedal that is rad as hell.

I sold off a couple dirt pedals to buy an Elements, and I freaking lerve it. I keep it in low-gain mode 80% of the time and it's a tremendous overdrive. Not only does it not cut bass, it can actually add a shitload of bass if you crank the bass knob.

Yep. + 25 dB!
