I finally got around to buying a Bad Monkey....got it off ebay for $35 shipped.
It arrived today...I plugged it into the classic 30 on the clean channel and tried it both with and without the amp boost added in.....either way it sounded freaking awesome....major sustain and bawlz....boosting the low on the monkey just made it even better.
If I would have known that it would sound that great with my setup I would have bought this one a couple of years back.....if you are on the fence on buying the Bad Monkey....do it....and don't look back.
Kicked in the amps distortion and it just got darker and darker....nice...but clean with boost and the monkey kicked in with amp volume at about 3 was just about perfect.....but it sure makes the classic 30 a lot louder.....I hope to be grabbing a Vox AD30VT this weekend in hopes that cutting it back to around 3 watts or so will give me the killer tone I found but at bedroom or main floor volume levels.....if not...going to have to move the amp back down to the basement or out to the garage while I continue to sew my oats :-)
I am so digging this pedal alone....can't wait to add in the new BBE Fuzz, the Boss EQ and Vox Wah into the chain and see how it all comes together.
