NIB - Bass pedal

[JC103]

Looks pretty cool! Is the Omar based on anything in particular?

I bought that big Omar out of the classifieds.

Ish. It's ye olde FET booster, but we've made it like a silicon version of the baby boobtube. They're so close sounding it's scary.

Juan,
Any advice now that this has been out in the wild for a year. I'd the Omar good on bass?

It's a great pedal for bass.  The compressor and Omar are excellent and the envelope follower allows you to get Geezer's NIB sound perfectly (shame I'm playing in a blues/R&B band  )

 Thanks for the report! I have my diamond board in the Omar's on the way. I have that envelope and don't love it for my playing.  I'm wondering what else I should add. Thinking of maybe a Civil War muff after the Omar.

I'd put Omar after a muff. There's so much clipping going on in there it won't make much of an impact on it. However afterwards it will.

 So much clipping in the Omar or in the muff?

[juansolo]

The muff clips, no clipping in Omar, that's fet distortion.

Nice.  I have been playing a lot of muffs lately and am not super exited about the. Anyway. Just not what I'm looking for.
