Sheehan has a very particular fan base and he uses very unique gear. I can see the appeal but wouldn’t chase it myselfSlowy wrote: ↑Sat Apr 26, 2025 9:27 am https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/marketplace ... 5277639706

Nice! Hows the fuzz sound with bass? does it do the octave thang?
How can I be sure I'm here?

Is that an American made Lakland?

Re: Anyone like bass guitars?
Correct. There's a reason I put up with the extra B string for Tool...it's simply superb to play, always.
It sounds great - I don't really use the octave part for bass but it does sound cool. It'll probably get replaced by a JC fuzz/wah combo, but I am pretty sure JC's fuzz is based on this typology. Only things I dislike about the Foxy is the lack of an indicator light, and how annoying it is to mount to a pedalboard (hence the cable ties).

Re: Anyone like bass guitars?
Ahhhh nice, I bought the Joyo voodoo octave recently, its a clone of the Fulltone Ultimate Octave which is a clone of the Foxy, unfortunately the Fulltone had some of the capacitors in the wrong places so it sounds a bit shit and Joyo cloned this exactlyhercules wrote: ↑Wed Apr 30, 2025 10:51 am Correct.

I'll have to give it a crack with bass
