That was a killer fucking board. Not going to lie. I've had a few really nice set ups. Working on getting another one too.

Here's the reasons I got rid of each of those pedals.

Pitchfactor-sounds like a cool pedal and all, but not very realistic sounding to me. To digital and you have to fuck with it WAY too much to get anything worth using.

Second Voice-Liked the sound...not really sure why I ditched that one...

Doom On You-Great fucking pedal but the circuit was just too much for me. The noise this thing generated sounds great when I hit notes, but makes irritating feedback noises when not being used.

Eau Clair Thunder-Got rid of it to try the Baby Thunda, now I'm down the thunda in general. Really miss it.

MXR pedal-Not a big fan. Bad tracking and fake sounding IMO.

TGD-Love this thing and am on the hunt for new one when I get funds.

Custom Fuzzhugger-Ok. this one was hard as fuck to get rid of, but at the end of the day, I play active bass. I dig the sound of active bass and will always dig the sound. It didn't want to work right with the bass/set up I have. It's really unfortunate. I love the look, the sound was sweet too, but lost a TON of low end. As a bass player, it just was not working the way I wanted. Tom is fucking stellar dude though and makes great pedals.

4545-Something happened to it. I think I fried it somehow, although I'm still unsure how. Sad really. I'm working on getting a custom one.

Blarg-This is my most regretted sale ever. But I'm a man of my word and don't back down from things. It's just a pedal. I want a new one, but if not, Brian makes other cool things that will work.

It's weird. I've gone through a TON of fucking pedals in the last year or two and plan on keeping the pace up. I just love trying new effects. I could have started my own damn review site with as much as I flip shit. In fact I still might. :)

Hey jwar,
Thanks for the insight view on the issues. I was really wondering why everything is gone. E.g. your tgd settings are superb :thumb:

Dollar is doing a bit better now, last time I looked an SDR would have been $442 before shipping.

I keep reading this about ss/bs stuff. Never had any issues with mine, what are you guys using to power it?

that was was a weird anomaly. still not totally sure what happened to it... i got jwar another custom pedal as a replacement though.
all of my pedals use 9v negative tip - preferably a 1spot or PP+, etc. crummy walwarts will give less than stellar results - some noise, not the best response with a fuck, etc.

Out of all the superfuzz 'esque pedals I've tried this one's my favorite, besides the velcroar I used to have its
the only pedal where I don't have the fuzz level all the way up! :lol:
