    Man, every time I see the old chasis pedals XO’ed, it makes me want my Polychorus and Micro Synth shrunk down. The XOs just look so damn cool.

    Hey EHX, how about a bass graphic fuzz? ;)

    Hello,

    The Micro-Synth has neen shrunk down. The Graphic Fuzz’s left last week and were shipped out with such fierce and fury that the sound on the block will never be the same.

    good grief. :rawk:

    The Graphic Fuzz sounds great with the bass. You can get some really off the wall type of Bass wails with this box. Especially with the EQ function when engaged. It really cuts the bass freqs and makes it work… Drummers will like you even more now.

    I fail to see how something can “sound great with the bass” and “cut the bass freqs” at the same time.

    You should try it and maybe you’ll know what I am talking about. The Graphic Fuzz has a lot you can deal with while plugging your bass into. I’ve tried it with a 4 String P Bass and I was able to get some really great sounds out of it. This doesn’t replace the the awesome Bass Big Muff Pi, but you have a larger pallet to play with. It’s all experimentation…

    Oh yes, I agree about experimentation. But I’m done buying pedals that I can’t use with my band, and if a fuzz pedal cuts my lows, I’m not going to be able to be heard in the band. Otherwise, yes I really want to try it. I tried to get my guitarists to buy a Graphic Fuzz, so I can play with it, haha.

    If you can try to convince the drummer to buy one, then you have a future in sales, my friend….hahaha.

    That is true, once you get that sound, you hold on to it for the project. An yes, if has has the lows, it can get washed, but it can also add some more bottom if going for that classic stoner Muff sound. You can also throw the highs in the mix to really stand out and get the ice pick sharpened for the intended user’s ear. It can do that and more.

    So next time you go to a music shop with the drummer, sneak a Graphic Fuzz in with the drumsticks, grip tape and metronome, drummers are a bit slow, he’ll think its a comb.

    Have Fun!

    Reminds me of Terry in American Graffiti:
    “Let me have a Three Musketeers, and a ball point pen, and one of those combs there, a pint of Old Harper, a Graphic Fuzz, a couple of flash light batteries and some beef jerk.”

    As a drummer who has USED the Graphic Fuzz in my drum setup, I find that statement OFFENSIVE and UNCALLED FOR.

    But I did think the Graphic Fuzz was a comb right up until I got home…

    (PS for what it’s worth, I’m down to just a Flanger Hoax on my drums now because gain pedals feedback like crazy on stage. BUT I have big plans for the Sixteen Second delay… perhaps tomorrow afternoon… And the Graphic Fuzz sits safely in my guitar chain.)

    sorry if these is kind of a noob qs or i i missed out on something.
    does the bigger enclosure have the same circuitry as the xo version?
    any differences?

    im also kinda bummed out about the power supply thing.
    ive read on this forum that the xo series can be used
    with one spot.

    some light?
