Are there other fuzzes you would recommend that could be substituted for the sovtek big muff pi or zvex box of metal in this setup? the sovtek pi is too big for my board and i'd prefer not to do zvex. Thanks!
the orange Burst is a suppose clone of the BB PREAMP but with same settings they sound very different. I have a NUX morning Star, great pedal, blues breaker stile pedal
Man, the BD-2 beyond 2 o'clock turns into a monster 😂. And it cleans up beutifully with the guitar's volume. I got mine this year and I can't believe it took me so long to try this amazing pedal out.
My double muff was used live outdoors, mild rust, got it repainted by a friend with gold sparkles and a volcano theme on it for my 18th birthday, 17 years ago. Played it through cranked vintage amps, hotrodded amps, practice amps, my go-to desert island pedal
I love blend, recently im the only guitarist in my band and i have in mind getting a rat, and a big muff for my singer to ad a rithym guitar in the formula, at least in the studio an quad tracking the guitars
Honestly this sounds pretty spot on. Really good work. Def think I’m gonna grab one of these in case my real ts series amp craps out one day haha. They have a sound nothing else has.
I'd say the Screamin Blues adds some added versatility with its EQ, but I would buy either a Cinders or a used BD-2. It sounds fine with just a tone knob. I think I understand why the TC Electronic staff didn't seem too thrilled about these budget pedals that they were made to put out after being bought ny Behringer... its not so much that they are bad pedals, its that they are clones of other things. I don't know if the higher end TC pedals are conpletely original circuits or not, but they did things with those designs that made them more original.
I use Fender vintage reissues into Analogman Prince of Tone, into this here DBA Germanium Filter, into a 65 Princeton 1/12 reissue with Jensen P12R. The reason I say all this is because it’s an extremely elusive sound. It’s like Velvet Underground and Nico. It’s very fuzzy but with total overdrive clarity, very satisfying. I’ve had $500 germanium treble boosters and handwired EP Boosters and not one comes close to this pedal. I love 60’s tones and indie rock. I could never live without this pedal now.
That Noel Gallagher thing must be a myth. He's explicitly stated that he only got into pedals relatively recently, and preferred amp distortion during the Oasis peak period. Check out the That Pedal Show talk with him.
You have way too much gain on the second pedal during these considering how much you are already setting on the first pedal...That's why it is getting so muddy at times.
I got the Waza DS1 because I just wanted straight up distortion, I wanted the sound of my guitar but distorted and it gave me exactly that. Then I noticed I liked using my blues driver with all the knobs at noon as my crunchy or clean sound, and I loved cranking up the gain on it for distortion. When I got a Screamin Blues, which is a blues driver with low and high eq, I used that as my all around heavier distortion and my blues driver as my creamy overdrive. Now my DS1 is just my guitar solo button. It's thick, creamy, loud, mid rangey, and I can use it with just the one pedal alone and get all the distortion I need or add a blues driver or boost pedal to it. I love it.
