hhahahaha, you should see how I have to buy these damn things. I have a secret GAS account!
In all honesty, I have been waiting to pull the trigger for a long time on most of this stuff. I was waiting to see what was coming out from some other builders before making the purchase. I figured I couldn't go wrong with any analogman pedal, have you seen what his stuff is going for on ebay?
I really need to post some clips of the cot pushing the eternity and honeybee stacked, its just too sick for words.
As soon as my new mac gets here I will post them. Anyone ever use garageband?

Pac, the Black Beauty is tone bender type fuzz + boost, it can pretty much nail every tone out there, lovepedal.com check it out.

I was just there. I want that vibe unit too.

It's time I re-did my OD/Dist. I'm about ready to sell/trade my DD and Keeley Rat and start fresh.

The BBB is definitely something i'm interested in. But I still have my heart set on a CC2

I'm ordering that strat I've been talking about for a year now from http://www.nashguitars.com as soon as I get the tax back from the government and he gets his pricing up.

Sean sold out the vibes in 1 day, I think he sold 50 or something. I have heard all the clips and if I wasnt so attached to my mojo I would get it. One knob, small foot print and cheap. $100 for a vintage vibe is a steal.
The CC2 is great, but it takes up too much room! Plus I wasn't sold on octave, I like ring modulators that can actually be used beyond the 12th fret LOL.
The BBB is the ONE I am really waiting for.
I guess it depends on what you want. I was looking for sustain, harmonics and no mud. The Cot is a boost, a plexi in a box, but a boost. The eternity (now that I have had it for a couple weeks) is a little compressed, it is a TS but much better. It reacts to your picking and has gain, but not a ton. Its just the perfect OD.

the provibe is the main reason I like the CC2, the speed control and that kind of thing. I don't know perhaps it's not the way to go.

I'd like a tremolo now but the vibe unit is first, and I'm definately going to have to purchase several fuzzes, the fuzz factory being one and some kind of tonebender as you mention, certainly germanium fuzz face type and probably silicon too.


the BBB is definately rangemaster inspired hearing those clips.

likely a woody is on my list. I'm pretty much convinced to sell the Keeley Rat now, for something different. The Woody is freaking awesome

I'm glad the pit is back up, REALLY glad. I have more questions for MIG, since I've started saving for an SG.

The woody is a no knob blues pedal, I have heard some clips. I like anything you can't adjust too much. I'll end up pushing my FF off my board once I get the fuzz sound I am looking for, the FF can't be left alone

Check out the BJ Dyna Red before you buy anything.

if you sell your FF contact me first.

How do you like your honey bee?

Still really tempted to get a keeley rat and/or get my ts9 modded.

I will let you know if I sell it, its a love/hate relationship. I like the tones, but never seem to be able to duplicate them LOL. I think the pedal is best for studio use.
The HB is in a league all by itself, there is nothing else out there like it. It can be placed anywhere in the chain, which is something I like about it. It sweetens everything, and does so without getting to distorted, in fact this is a real light overdrive with great harmonics and is super sensitive to your picking. The best part of the HB is it loves to be stacked. I am pushing it with the COt and Eternity and it is just awesome, light break up, smokin lead blues riffs, and it never gets muddy or really heavy.
BJ says it is just like the old supro amps and it sounds just like an 18watt being pushed. It has great clean highs and runs great in a clean and slightly dirty amp.
I had a hard time picking between the Eternity and the HB and they are different, so I got them both.
I run my COT all the time and have been playing around with the HB and Eternity seperate, but I just love em stacked.
My BBB is shipping soon, board is built and Sean snagged some OC81's that he found over seas, it should be the perfect cross between rangemaster and tone bender.

yeah the tone knob will be important. Rangemaster being that upper end and the tonebender handling the darker flavor. I bet it will sound outstanding with a little reverb especially hall or plate.

I've been thinking about getting my TS9 modded for awhile now, but I'm not sure which way to go. What's the main diff between the stock ts9 and the mod plus? Between the stock ts9 and the baked mod?

I'm also seriously considering a keeley rat first. That way I'll have a distortion, besides the corrosion, while my ts9 is getting modded.

Having my TS-9 modded by keeley was my best guitar related decsion ever.

Before you did that, you did love the stock sound of your ts9...I'm assuming? Because I love it.

take what you love about it. add clarity and a shit ton of volume.

The rat is cool, my setup is similar, Barber DD (JRC4558 OP AMP) more gain, more harmonics etc. essentially a hot rod TS -808 into the Keeley 3 way rat.

I've found I use the middle postion mighty mouse and the left tubescreamer+rat kind of thing. It's very metallic and very late 70's marshall tone, brownish, and very abrasive silicon style fuzz almost Univox super fuzz style. Insane amounts of volume.

It's a fun second pedal. sometimes I use it by itself. Clips are available on keeley's site but there are a lot more shades than the ones posted. You have to re learn it if you're used to a regular rat.

There are a great many players that use the TS-9 to Rat to fender amp combo and it sounds great.

One band you might check out where I know the lead player uses this combo and only this combo is jupiter coyote. The guys name is John Felty and he's a great player. soundclips at http://www.jupitercoyote.com

I actually hated the stock sound of my tubescreamer.
Getting it modded was my last chance and if i didnt like it i was gonna get rid of it.

The Tubescreamer-into-a-DeVille combo is tasty...

It is a good combo. But not untill the pedal got the mod. Before that it was very muffled.

I've never had a regular rat, but I've always heard good things about the rat. Gonna go check out the samples.
