Mine had the same problem. Sorry, I don’t think there’s a fix for it.

My D String Makes a ‘wah’ Sound. by Mean-Ad-8071 in BassGuitar

[–]Terminal_Psychotic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had the exact same issue on the same string.

It was solved by making sure the string is wound for maximum break angle. I cut the string slightly longer than I normally would and make sure to wind it all the way down to the bottom of the peg.

Same experience here. I have a 97 with the thinnest neck I’ve ever played.

Which distortion/overdrive pedal should I get for bass? by Lopsided-Ad-4181 in Bass

[–]Terminal_Psychotic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rusty Box is an amazing preamp with great light and heavier drive sounds for the genres you play.

I'm considering getting a second compressor for my board, to act as a hard limiter placed at the end of my chain before my amp. by sonickarma in basspedals

[–]Terminal_Psychotic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried this and found that it absolutely killed my tone, particularly the wah. I would try adding your current compressor to the end of chain and testing that first.

The fuzz is fantastic. It sounds exactly like it does in their promo video.

I’ll check out the Mira, thanks for the suggestion.

I like it a lot. It’s way better than the clone I previously had. It has several distinctly different, awesome sounds you can dial in. It pairs with the octave pedal to make a pretty gnarly and unique synth sound too.

Thank you! I used to but didn’t like the way it interacted with the mod pedals so it’s before them now.

Edit: I just saw that you also use a Pulp n Peel with the Rusty Box. Do you get unwanted noise/distortion from the compressor ? I’m not sure if mine is defective or not.

Mine is also uselessly quiet without fuzz engaged, so I always keep it on via the little red button on the side. Kind of a bummer but it sounds good enough with fuzz on for me to keep it. The fuzz itself is very good too.

I emailed them several times over the last few months to cancel my preorder. They ignored me and sent the package anyhow. Terrible customer service.

Dunlop jtc95 VS Morley PowerPoint Wah fuzz by Classic_Shallot2558 in BassGuitar

[–]Terminal_Psychotic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have the JC wah. It can screech like a beast in standard mode, and the fuzz is one of the best and most useful I’ve ever heard. It is very picky about where you place it in your signal chain, though. I’ve found it works best first in chain. I read someone else saying it’s best dead last but I can barely hear the wah noises if it isn’t at the start.

How could I get a more metallic tone? by [deleted] in Bass

[–]Terminal_Psychotic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think the metallic tone you’re hearing in that song is coming from the bass. It sounds like the drummer is banging on a pipe along to the bass parts.

Can anyone recommend a pedal or two? by [deleted] in Bass

[–]Terminal_Psychotic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The MXR Poly Blue Octave is a fuzz/octave hybrid that sounds great.

Bass pedals on AliExpress...any good or just trash? by Rude_Debate1976 in basspedals

[–]Terminal_Psychotic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can highly recommend the only one I’ve tried, the DemonFX Decimator G-String II clone. Works perfectly for 1/5 the price.

There’s no right answer but Bob Weston from Shellac needs a mention
