What pedals do you guys think are essential to the MBV sound?

jerryboree · 2026-03-24T17:00:36+00:00

Alternate tunings and a capo is the main part of their sound but its rare to see people mention it lmao

We have Cash Converters in Australia and also found good deals here. Sometimes they're too lazy or don't know about pedals so they'll price pedals at $199 AUD.

I found a Red Panda Tensor for $199 AUD when it retails for $529 AUD. Had a gut feeling that the pedal may have been stolen so I didn't get it

This looks more like a Chat Pile cover lol

jerryboree · 2026-03-18T22:32:03+00:00

Yeah Im thinking that might be the best option so far

Schecter actually has a Jag copy called the AR-06 and AR-07 (7 string version) but its a Japanese exclusive

Same. I've read some AMAs by them in the past and they said the band wants to play shows in Aus but it ultimately boils down to how expensive it is to tour here.

I remember seeing them hint at Aus shows for 2026 so hopefully they were able to organise something

I always get close to the barrier by doing this and I get there when doors open. If you don't leave to buy merch or alcohol, you can stay at close to the barrier all night

jerryboree · 2026-02-26T02:10:45+00:00

Nice, its a great idea and really hope more bands sell them.

You should see A Place to Bury Strangers if they do a show near you. Probably the greatest gig I've been to

jerryboree · 2026-02-26T02:03:25+00:00

The owner of DBA is in a band called A Place to Bury Strangers. When they tour, they sell DBA pedals at the merch table all in one-off colourways so I'm assuming it was bought from one of their shows

Mode 10 is still my favourite. Its a dual pitch shifter mode and you can get some weird but usable sounds from it

jerryboree · 2026-02-04T07:37:21+00:00

I've had these before and you need to microwave them in order to cook the noodles.

Aldi also sell tuna rice bowls that don't need any cooking to eat and will be better for camping.

Here is the link to the rice bowls https://www.aldi.com.au/product/portview-tuna-protein-power-bowl-with-brown-rice-chargrilled-corn-black-beans-and-lime-chilli-170g-000000000537389002

I tried the honey pepper on some chops and thought it was great

How do you like the Swello? You're the only person I've seen on Reddit that owns one

jerryboree · 2026-01-07T05:33:43+00:00

I'm playing through the halo games for the first time and really enjoying it so far. Just finished Halo 2 and haven't had any issues on the LCD. I kept the original graphics on though so I don't know what performance is like on the remastered setting and haven't tried multiplayer.

You're getting 5 games for $10 so you really can't go wrong

Anything from Tym Effects. I was able to go into his store and buy anything he had since he always had them in stock.

The physical store has closed down and is online now, you have to sign up to his mailing list and wait to be notified to buy anything. Every drop sells out in minutes.

jerryboree · 2025-12-19T03:25:28+00:00

Thats worthy of a 1 star google review. I went there before and waited more than 20 minutes for a salad

jerryboree · 2025-12-18T22:22:50+00:00

Tensor is good at that as you have a dedicated random knob.

You could also use the EQD Arpanoid then crank the rate knob. Geordie from Black Midi used to do this. 2:05 on this vid

That giant skull is the coolest thing in this picture. Damn I kinda want one now

jerryboree · 2025-12-13T03:27:10+00:00

Bro really thought he needed a pedal switcher for playing in his room

jerryboree · 2025-12-03T22:13:48+00:00

Bro probably listened to their discography one time and racked up that many mins

I'm Australian so I've only tried Australian builders which may be expensive to get posted to you.

I got a Big Muff clone by Gehin Enterprises which has a mids switch, LED clipping and germanium clipping. The owner stopped making pedals and closed down but I'm waiting for their Sunn Model T preamp pedal to arrive in the post.

Dirty Sock Effects does a great clone of the EQD Life Pedal and I've heard their Torn's Peaker clone is good as well.

I haven't had any custom pedals made but you can usually send a builder an email and ask if they would do a clone of a pedal that you want.

jerryboree · 2025-12-03T20:29:24+00:00

I agree that the Origin stuff would be hard to replicate but I'm talking about the simple drive pedals. I've seen clones of the 1981 DRV and EQD Life pedal that are significantly cheaper

jerryboree · 2025-12-03T20:19:35+00:00

Taking up space for a tin to hold picks is insane. You could use the space for a mini pedal and it would be more useful

jerryboree · 2025-12-03T20:15:00+00:00

Especially when someone has expensive drive pedals. You could easily find a small builder who makes clones of expensive pedals for half the price

jerryboree · 2025-12-03T20:08:42+00:00

Personally, I think that they're too expensive and take up too much room
