    Bought it. Is killer. Everything you need from a fuzz.

    Sounds filthy! That sound at 9:57 with the tone down and mids cranked is incredible

    Excellent demo of all the filthy noises needed, and good to see you back! Also, good shout for Joe's pedals, didnt know about the site and it's fantastic, all the pedals I've been hunting for and couldnt find.

    Welcome back, I've been waiting! What I've noticed is that when metalheads try fuzz pedals they almost always sound so unusable, over the top. This isn't the case in your videos. One day You gotta make one explaining how you're using your gear in the first place.

      Thanks, man! I'm wondering if a lot of metal guys are trying to play traditional metal riffs through them? Ola Englund for instance, won't get along with a Muff playing his usual stuff. It's all about the style, I think. Slow and simple riffs suit muffs best when they're not doing leads.
      But my signal chain is always the same (except guitars) when it comes to these, so you can always expect the Victory v30, set to "Bassman", pre-amp at 1 o'clock, EQ at noon, going through a vintage 30 1x12, captured with an SM57 and into an old Focustite Scarlett 2i4. I'm hoping to never change that and not use any post tools, so you'll always know what's going on!

    Excellent demo of a most excellent pedal. Glad to see (and hear) this. I already own one, but this should be helpful to anyone considering adding a Priestess to their rig.
    Can't go wrong with BAT gear, in my opinion. Keep up the good work.

      I have a Pharaoh supreme, so I don't know if I really need a Priestess even if it is different, but I'm really tempted. I love the Pharaoh. I also have a Crown of Horns which is a killer muff type pedal too.

    The sound in the intro was great! This is a very interesting fuzz pedal. I like how the mids and the tone controlls are working. I play baritone guitar and I use the Carcosa and the DROP DED hybrid fuzz (Analogwise Pedals), together with a Operation Trinity distortion and with a Mud Killer pedal in front of the signal chain and an 10 band equilizer at the end. I have various good dark distortion and fuzz sounds. But now I working on a new pedalboard and this Priestess fuzz sounds really good. I want it to combine with my GT73 pedal to get a some dark and brutal tones. I really like to experiment with different pedals and also the Moai Maea octave pedal has to be on my new pedalboard. Do you know fuzz pedals that have sub octave tones?

    • @doctorfuzzzdirtbox
      @doctorfuzzzdirtbox  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks, man! Only low octaves that come toind are classics like the MXR Blue Box or fuzz/synths like the EQD Bit Commander... The tone and mid of the Priestess are really interactive for getting lots of subtle tones. I'm finding even more after this video!
