Cred to friendship for the idea.


I can't live without some variant of a muff family fuzz. My Dirge pedals are filling like, three different Muff DNA spectrums. Ssstampede=Spitty muff, Meathead=Dark overdrivish muff, soda meiser= super fuzz with a muff character.

Chaaaaaaa. Muffff.

Also can live without Pitch Shifting for my bass playing. Need that to go full LIghtning Bolt.

ss/bs Mini fo sho. Mine is used in conjunction with a Rusty Box for some essential tone shaping shit. I don't even use it with the gain cranked or anything. Right at noon so I can get clean when I play light and chunky clanky when I dig in.

Ive also been jonesing for a good muff. no bbm pi bullshit. So Im getting a marsh chapel built. we'll see how it works out. Im a compulsive fuzz flipper.

I also need some pitch shifting. Second Voice has my octave down/5th covered. Hopefully the buzzz will have a good octave up that's not too tinny and doesnt overpower my bass signal.

Fuck bitches, get whammaaaaaaaaaaaaaay.

Hrm, always hear nothing but good thangs about the mini. Seems like its the ILF secret sauce of pedals. Really need to grab one and try it out once I got monies.


Yooo, if you don't end up jiving with the marsh, DIBS ON DA FLIP GUUUUUURL.

Played through a whammy before. Liked it. Its useful as a studio thing too. Used it with an electric violin, octave down into a reverb once for a pretty convincing cello. I have my effects purchases roughly mapped out and its on there, but after a boatload of other shit. Of course, my impulses trump the list sometimes.

I'm hoping the Marsh Chapel is a keeper. I'm designing some graphics and I'm gonna have it put into a big wedge enclosure and etched by Dan. One big ass knob for volume, a diode lift switch, and everything else internal. HNNNNNGGG

But yeah, if not, dibs accepted.

Oh, and I didn't give 2 shits about OD before the mini.

And I guess I should be more specific, since I sold my Mini and got a Fuck Mountain, which is a mini and mountain range in the same enclosure. So the Fuck Mountain is my bottom bitch. Mini on all the time, Mountain side cranked for Doomy Fuzzy OD that has the most amazing chunky attack when I hit the strings hard.

Word.
Mini is my soul-pedal. Cannot live without. Whatever board i'm putting together for whatever project, it is the first thing to go on there.

Ring Mod and pitch shifting/octave effects. I abuse all 3 of them to a point where I feel a bit like I'm using a crutch. My Green Ringer clone and my whammy are pretty much my go to effects for adding some kind of spice to a riff.

The superfuzz man. No other fuzz has the disgusting, disorienting, down right violent attack that circuit has

Tough call...

I'd say my boss FZ-2, but my hotcake works a helluva lot better for my not-so-apocalyptic jams/riffs, and does an okay job on bass as well.

I have pretty high hopes for my incoming Dr Scientist The Elements though. Seems like a damn versatile fuzz/dist/od, and if it lives up to the hype I doub't I'll be dissapointed...

Frazz Dazzler and some form of delay (which has been a DT the past couple years)

Muff. Gotta have at least a Ram's Head clone. I'm even happier with a Russian to go with it.

Delay. I need a slapback.

Reverb. Can't play without echo.

Tape delay with modulation. Cavernous reverb. Bazz fuss clones.
Those are crucial!
