im a beginnner bassist
im tinkin of gettin an effect pedal after playin bass for 2 years without any pedals...

any suggestion ?
i've read thru the pinned post above...but too many choices

my first pedal was a boss odb-3
haha... wanted to overdrive along with guitars man....
or if u have the money can always get a effects processor. can do more with it

Ah so you want a bass effect?

My 1st pedal was a Boss MetalZone MT2. Frankly, the dist was too kao for versatile use.

zoom 505II

used it for many many years

Have you checked out the Zoom B2.1u???
http://www.zoom.co.jp/english/products/b21u/index.php

It's resonably priced (should be about 500 ringgit range), it performs quite well, has most of the effects that you will need to play around AND has a USB interface to record to your computer.

Or if you don't like Zoom, you can try out Digitech's BP80 or BP200 products. Doesn't have a USB plug, but according to some, performs much better compared to the Zoom.... SHOULD be around the same price range.

But if you REALLY have cash to splurge on, Check out the Digitech BNX3.... http://www.digitech.com/products/bnx3.htm

My first was the Yamaha Magicstomp. Still loving it... the effects on it are killers, especially the reverb and delay... unbelievable...

wah digitech abit over la!!!
but i kinda like the Zoom B2
ee where can i grab 1 of those?

thx man

Mine was a DS-1

Ah, those were simple days

mine is an SD-1

still loving it.... lol

my first efx would be a EHX Big Muff Russian & Digitech RP3...

rarely use the muff now thanks to the heavyly mod Boss OS2 n also Behringer GD121...

Oh, my first stompbox was the DS-2, got it together with my first guitar. I wanted to get the DS-1 initially but Woh Fatt only had the DS-2 and the Metal Zone.... Arrr... used to think it was THE distortion hah.

i called bentley last month to enquiry about the digitech bad monkey....but they've no more stock.....will be stock in mid of may......

i think my 1st pedal would be digitech bad monkey......

but still hestitate which pedal should i get btw the digitech bad monkay and boss ds-1......gimme some advice pls....Thanks..

If you're talking about GUITAR effects...... I think my first pedal was the Zoom 505, 2000 limited edition silver one..... Then added on a GCB-95 Dunlop wah (Got it for my 21st Birthday).
I then got the GFX-5, and added in the ZW-44 and now, the ZW-45.

I think you can get the B2.1u at Chambers in Sungai Wang or Bentley.

Also.... since on the subject of Pedals..... Dunlop FINALLY came up with a Slash Wah!!!! http://www.jimdunlop.com/index.php?page=pr.../p_and_e_detail

Looks REALLY killer and would be a good alternative to the Crybaby from Hell or the Wylde Wah.....

Err... I was at Bentley just now and the Bad Monkey is there. List price was RM190???

Both the DS1 and BM are different pedals. The DS-1 is a distortion pedal that provides you heavy tone that reminds one of the grunge era, eg nirvana's smells like teen spirit. The BM is an OD pedal and at full gain, it should sound like ermm... perhaps classic rock bands like Cream & AC/DC?

Simple. get the ZW-44.....

yeah...it's RM190.....
icic...step closer to the bad monkey now......the tone is most suit my taste......

haha...but don't u said that ZW-44 is quite picky?

i scare it would sounds 'bad' on my amp....furthermore bcoz of its price.....quite exp.....RM560(neuvas's price) right?

WHEE!!!!
i gotta save liao





























lol kidding

My first pedal was the Zoom 505II.. but I sold it after juz around few months cause the sound is too digital for me...
nvr realy love the sound at all

then after that I got myself a BOSS MD-2.. and then now a Behringer Hellbabe wah-wah pedal... emmm thinking to get a GT8 in the future too.. hopefully can la

My first pedal was the DD-3 ..........
Delay is my first pedal and then grabed a JAPAN DS-1 in e-bay....

DS-1 have a nice killing sound !!!!

Like most people, my first pedal was a BOSS Metal Zone. Thought it was the best pedal ever, now? It's horrible.
