holy shit

[deadbeatriot]

i was messin around at my local guitar center because i needed to kill some time (and i like playing really loud and fuzzy to drown out all the wannabe shredders) and i played this setup - tele -> big muff -> mxr bass octave -> hot rod deluxe.


it was fucking awesome.

almost forgot to mention that they almost kicked me out because of it.

Then you were definitely doing something right!

Try playing louder next time.

kind of makes me wonder what a Big Muff and a MXR Blue Box would sound like.

mxr bass octave->fuzz=

I rock that all the time, but now with ilf fuzzes.

[less_cunning]

so would a MXR Bass Octave be a panacea for Fuzzes & Overdrives? you know, like better than using an EQ or a Dark Boost? it seems like a great idea.

I'd say so. If I feel some pedal is lacking in bass, I kick the mxr and have instant ass-jiggling lows.

I haven't found a pedal yet that's immune to its effect. So yeah, try one out I think they can be found pretty cheap used. I use the previous version which doesn't track as well or have as many tonal options as the new one but the bad tracking and lack of tonal options is what I like about it.
