I just got mine in the mail….not too sure, a bit extreme for my taste, not sure I was ready for how harsh it is. I don’t really like having to re-eq my amp (an Egnator Rebel 30) to use it. The sound is very piercing even with the tone controls on my amp and guitar cranked down. I have a Fuzz Factory, an OCD, a Rat 2, and a Double Muff, I like the sound of all four by themselves and the Bird was just painfull combined with each one. I would like to try it with a Big Muff, guessing it would sound good with the Screaming Bird. Anyway, I think my ears are bleeding.
i use the screaming bird sparingly to make my guitar sound like its on an old recording on a radio or a phonograph or sum thing.
i use the mole to give it more low end for rhythm on hard rock and metal.
and i use the lpb-1 to boost pedals with a volume cut, like my V1 small stone.
Tried it on my 60’s Northland head through a Mitchell 2×10 sand cab, does nice things through that. The sound is usually really dark and sludgy, but the bird really made it crisp. So I take back my first post and maybe just mount this thing right on the amp.
