Which guitars/amps have you guys tried with the Algal Bloom (which version of the pedal)? Better/worse results with some combinations? I have a Strat, a Guild Capri (wich I will probably not use with fuzz) and a d'Angelico EX-DC plugged into a Princeton Reverb or a Vox AC15.
quick little clip. it got cut off :/ i did some loop stuff that didn’t get recorded. using my Johnny Marr Jag. starting off in choke mode. then when i bend down .. i flip it to Fuzz mode. i'm on a mission to get a better "demo" setup. i said it.
i really like it behind my other dirt! it's a great layering fuzz. the choke mode is really cool. has anyone compared the Bloom choke - to the Fuck choke?
Demo! Thanks for making that! Capturing the Bloom at its gnarliest!
There's a Fuck Choke? That adds a layer of connotation. I'm sure they're entirely different controls (as far as circuitry goes), as there's no convention for something called Choke.
Ah shit....I think the elephant face pushes this over the edge into an essential. The possibilities with all that blending....stacking combos....amps..... Excuse me while I slip into a GAS coma.
Edit: there was supposed to be a quote about that bass bloom at the start of this post. Pretend it's there now.

i had the Gain cranked .. i like the Gnarl. choke - crackle - potato - TOMato.
Big fuck has a crackle threshold, little fuck has a bias.
That is one of the best finishes I've seen. Sparrow is that a vertical layout but tipped horizontally with "top mount" (relative to the new horizontal position) jacks? If so, that is so sexy.

Yes sir! Audio jacks top-mounted to the left, power jack top-mount middle.
Sparrow!! So you were the one who got that custom V2! Drooled over those pics on FB for far too long. It's 5am so I'm not going to blast that demo now, but I really hope I remember to do so in the morning
