Great thread!
These are some photos from my last 2 gigs in October. Gigs are pretty rare these days, but these 2 were a blast! My old band from my high school and university years reformed after a 15 year absence for our 20 year high school reunion.
I look forward to playing with these guys again, but I’d sure like to have a more regular gig.
Your BMP collection will begin rival Mascis’
Let’s keep talking about the Deluxe Big Muff Pi.
Which one did you buy? The one with the Blend switch? or the Parallel/Series switch?
I haven’t used mine for a couple of months now, but I really love it. It sounds awesome. I’ve just been using my Ronsound modded BMP lately instead.

You can get the most unique phaser sounds that no other device could ever replicate – very luscious!
Quote:You shouldn’t prejudice yourself against boutique effects.Some of it is overhyped and overpriced. But some of those guys make really great stuff.
I’m prejudiced against any effect that isn’t electro-harmonix
Okay, not entirely. I own a few other brands, but they make up less than 25% of my effects.
The ZVEX lofi-loop junky and the fuzz factory are the only boutique pedals I currently own. Both are insane little boxes that can do some really versatile things. I would recommend them highly.

Yes, it’s the only pedal that I feel justified in keeping 3 of them.
They all sound a bit diiferent from one and other I bet. That’s the beauty!
Yes, they do sound different, but for good reasons.
V.1 is ~1977 blueface 4 knob version using the Reticon chips. Almost a different beast entirely from the DMM we know today.
V.2 is ~1979 blueface 5 knob version. This is my favorite one – minimal noise, great clarity in the repeats, and the modulation is lovely.
V.3 is ~Nineties blackface version with the built in power cable. When I first got this one, it barely reached 400ms delay time. I sent it to Howard Davis to have it modded for 500+ms. It’s a bit noisy in the higher delay settings, but it’s a great unit.

Aha, so it wasn’t Marty_11000s to begin with

And are there any blank knob layout pics for EHX pedals, ‘cos it would be cool to have lots of them around to write down settings…I’ve seen Flanger Hoax templates before, I think in that thread
