Hey, if talking about trans-trems is allowable (sounds suspiciously like some sort of code for a fetish in the "other" category of the personals classifieds if you ask me, "SWM trans-trem, seeks..."), a bit of bass gear blab should be fine... > >i'm wondering about the eh ms. how good is the fuzz? dave, you say the >tracking isn't so good on the b string, does that mean it does on the e? >most seem to have a problem on anything lower than a c on the a string. Well, this is based on borrowing one with intent to purchase about a year ago, so I'm not an expert on the MS in any significant way. But it seemed that using the synth feature, it had a glitch on the attack of every note, and the length of the glitch got longer the lower you played. Was pretty unuseable on the e-string, less so on the b. The fuzz was unique in a thin and kind of reedy way, could see using it, but didn't feel it was an essential sound. Likewise the filter. I basically decided that other stuff I already had did what the MS could do better, and while it's a definitely cool pedal, wasn't really worth the $ to me. YMMV. By the way, I should point out to the original poster on this thread that, as far as I know, there isn't any guitar pedal that can be damaged by plugging a bass into it. It's an urban legend, probably spread by Guitar Center sales droids to steer unsuspecting bassists to the more expensive bass-specific FX. ____________________________________________ Dave Trenkel : improv@peak.org New & Improv Media http://www.newandimprov.com Now available: Minus: Dark Lit ____________________________________________
