 Disappointed in the Bass Blogger Feb 04, 2012
By JSmith311
Purchased the Bass Blogger primarily for it's drive mode to edge up my tone a bit for certain songs. I was already using and EHX Bass Big Muff and was looking to add the Blogger as a second dirt box for variety. I have to say that although I'm a fan of EHX gear this pedal was a bit of a let down. Physically the pedal is right up there with the other EHX line but the it's the tone of this unit that was disappointing. The unit can operate in two modes. Fuzz or Drive. We'll start with Fuzz first. In Fuzz mode, the pedal did the job. It's actually a pretty decent fuzz pedal. Typical of what you'd expect from EHX and the controls behave exactly like the Bass Big Muff. Unfortunately it's a little bit too much like it's big brother. I'll touch on this later. For now I'll discuss the drive mode. I'm going to be completely honest in saying that the drive mode sounds absolutely horrible. Even worse if you're using a high output active bass. I demo'd this pedal first with a passive Warwick Corvette Standard followed by an active Warwick FNA. All the controls on the passive bass were turned up and both pickups were used. On the active bass all tone controls were centered at 0 and volume fully up. That being said, the tone of the drive mode sounds like a muddy and over saturated fuzz mode. In drive mode only the tone and drive controls are active and I seriously wondered if the drive knob actually does anything in this mode. Starting at 0 there is no effect and as the knob was slowly turned up the drive came on quickly but through the rest of the sweep the change in drive was minimal. Seemed like it was all or nothing. The tone knob behaved as expected but no matter how each knob was set I could not get away from the muddy lackluster tone. Using the unit with the active bass just increased the muddiness and added a harsh synth-like overtone to both modes. In short I just could not get anything useful out of the drive mode.
I went into the Bass Blogger with high hopes. Having owned a few EHX pedals in the past and some currently I think the make good quality effects units. They are rugged and sound fantastic. However this unit just seems to miss the mark. It's fuzz mode is fine if that's what you're looking for but it creeps too far into the Bass Big Muff's territory and the Bass Big Muff had no problem achieving the same fuzz sound as the Blogger. I found the drive mode to almost useless and misleading. You'd expect a warm distortion sound but what you got was an over saturated and muddy fuzz.
 A LITTLE GRIT OR FULL ON FUZZ Oct 25, 2011
By xander8280
At first I got this pedal and never put it down. It has an unique tone. The drive setting has a nice sparkle to the distortion, it's almost like a subtle fuzz. If you dime it you can get a minor fuzz tone. It's almost like the fuzz setting picks up where the drive setting left off at 85%. Using the setting setting with the gain at 9 o'clock there's a nice gain and clearness. I love the crackles of the fuzz when it's dimed out. It is like most fuzzes, it doesnt have a big muff tone, and the low ends powerful.
I've mentioned sparkle and crackle a few times, what i mean if, there's the signal that you hear of the bass, and then theres a higher octave harmonicy tone coming out onto when the pedal is cranked. It is a cool tone.
With flat wounds it distorts very harsh, drive setting is almost too harsh at like 25% gain. With round wounds it is nice. It is not a boss bass drive and a big muff in one pedal, its the Bass Blogger, I mentally call it that because it's it's own other thing.
p.s. Youtube demoes suck of this pedal. I plan on making a demo, and using flat wounds,round wounds,picking,fingering,slapping,pops,etc. Cover it all. A real demo.

Big let down Jan 29, 2009

Not worth the money, did not get the sound I wanted... Lots of feedback if you bosted the treble. I return it for a refund.
