Please make a bass fuzz! I love the BBBOD, I wish they were still made so I could get another one.

hmm I wonder if a Bass version of the Candy Apple Fuzz would be possible (or even advisable :shock: )

I'd love to see that happen! BJF pedals look amazing, and loved by many, sadly many bass players don't venture into the realm of the other effects so I've never heard of any reviews confirming if they work well... I would love to see more bass versions of these pedals though, or new designs :P . But I do understand that a guitar player/pedal maker does enjoy making pedals for his own instrument.

I know the modulations work really well with bass (Im a bass player too) and come to find out one reason PGComps are so hard to get is they are extremely popular with scandanavian bass players

Cool! There's someone on the bass forum that I regularly visit (talkbass), who has a Honey Bee, I've just sent him a message asking what he thinks. I think I might have to have a go with some BJF pedals to see if any are good on bass. If another bass specific pedal (fuzz ftw :P ), I'm sure a lot of people would buy it that visit Talkbass, the 3BOD pedal gets a lot of praise over there! Even if it was a limited run of about 10 pedals they'd definitely all be bought. Lol, I really want a BJF Bass fuzz now :P.

Yes another vote for bass fuzz . :)
Something with good sustain and tasteful big bottom end.
Also a octave down (or up) setting like the CAF has that could be dialed in or out would be a nice to have too.

Definately a bass effect or two... I've been itching to pull the trigger on a candy apple fuzz just to try as is, but a bass version of that or an entirely different bass fuzz would be amazing. I'd love to give his VCF, and model H a try if I could find them...

Non-bass related, I think a chorus or flange is a pretty solid choice, but would also love to see a higher gain variation of the honey bee... it sounds so beautiful with a boost in front of it!

I've noticed that several people have described less than sterling results with their wah combined with fuzz. Sounds like the arsenal of additions to the Area 51 Wah helps alleviate some of these issues.

Since the VCF is, in a sense, an auto wah, how about a combination box with VCF and a fuzz tweaked to perfection with it (along the lines of the recent BBOD or HB Deluxe) ......okay, so it might not work for everyone but I'll bet Bjorn could build it....and I'll bet we would all be willing to try it!
