I like it by itself, mostly, but in a the song Spartacus i kick on The Internet. It pretty much slams the hell out of the HOTDOG, and gives me instant and powerfull feedback.

In general, I like it better with not-so-high gain pickups and signals. With hot p-90s you get more bass, but maintain the sizzle and definition, but big humbuckers can sometimes over-compress.

It's one of the sexiest fucking pedals around. That's what you need to know and also you need to order one. I want one hard. Used to have the combo pedal (god I suck hard for getting rid of that) and when I get the monies, I'm getting a new one.

Aen, it sounds great with my Musicman HSS in active or passive mode. You do lose a little low end in active mode, but I think that's pretty typical of most bass pedals.

It stacks great! I use it with a Mellowtone Electric apple infront of it [Oh by the way it like totally replaced my mufftype fuzzes on me board] and then I run it in to all my other fuzzes... I need to move it around more though.. right now it's just in the "muff spot" :lol:

So how major is the low end loss with actives?
