Haha. Did you suddenly turn in on and notice all the sound died while you were playing? Cause that would have been really funny

Yes, Doug, that's exactly what happened...luckily they have footswitches so I very quickly, easily and effeciently rectified the issue at hand.

I wore my Dino Jr shirt I bought 15 years ago when I saw them with MBV tonight...just though you'd like to know.

Your SC has 2 switches? Why so?

Ha, you cant have seen MBV tonight but whatever.

There's one switch: on/off

I didn't see them tonight. I saw them 15 years ago.

Not according to you.

Oh yeah, I misread your post i thought you said 'It has 2 footswitches'

CHOUT 04.15.2007 04:29 AM

It's ok...you are fun to confuse.

king_buzzo 04.15.2007 04:38 AM

Okay then.

king_buzzo 04.16.2007 03:21 PM

Bump

king_buzzo 04.26.2007 01:58 PM

Bump bitch.

I finally decided what i'm doing.

Getting a rat. : Standard of Turbo??? I will try them both out though but I need opinions.

Is the turbo rat similar to a big muff? I've heard so? Is it juicy and crunchy? Versatile? Can be used for solo freakouts? Noisy? MBV/Shoegazy??? Can cover distortion and overdrive?

Or is the standard rat better for this?

In relation to Rats, the Turbo Rat have been said to have 'more gain less sustain'. Owning a Turbo Rat and Big Muff(s) I don't think they're that similar...Muffs are more chunky. Yes it can cover overdrive...they're thinner sounding than a Muff, IMO.

king_buzzo 04.26.2007 02:08 PM

good. turbo it is. I threw the ds1 because its crap. So solos with the muff sound shit if they are not boosted by something.

No, to me it's the other way around...Muffs are thicker sounding with more sustain, which works great with solos...the Turbo Rat sounds thin when doing solos...I usually would boost or compress the Turbo Rat for solos.

king_buzzo 04.26.2007 02:52 PM

I really dont like my muff when soloing because its so compressed and acurate, its better with chords. Wait if i'm running my muff last and put the tr infront of it, thats boosting the tr right and not muff??

And it can do thurstons crunch right??

I prefer the ds-1 over the rat for guitar. For other purposes (tapes, floops) the rat is better choice.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 04.27.2007 10:12 AM

I like the DS-1 to do the self oscillate bend then coupling it with a noisy fuzz and a chorus to make police siren sounds.

CHOUT 04.27.2007 10:29 PM

I got another fucking sweet guitar today...more details later~

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 04.28.2007 12:14 AM

So I was at a show today and this one guitarist had a sweet fuzz sound. So I was like "what is that?" and I walked up there and saw he had an Little Big Muff. Silly me, not recognizing pedals I own! Of course it was through a different amp and guitar though.

CHOUT 04.28.2007 01:47 AM

Here's my new guitar...exactly what I wanted and I never saw them used before I got my other tele and this store had two of them for decent prices!
'72 Tele Thinline RI, Daphne Blue mint fucking condition with case!

Sexy man.Like the colour....

king_buzzo 04.28.2007 07:06 AM

Just scored the standard RAT. It was 70, the guy gave me a discount. They didn't have turbo rats in stock, so i got this one, i like it, I'll keep it with me for a couple of days and then I'll see if im gonna keep it.
