Thanks Bro! I really appreciate that you have demonstrated this pedal, because I have the Pork&Pickle and it is only okay and it does not have a lot of bottom end. I listened to their demo when it came out and I was impressed but I think that the video was very well orchestrated with the theatrics of a western vibe. And at the end of the video they pour some BQ sauce on it. We have winner, so I thought? Well the MXR Is pretty awesome and takes care of that issue. ✌️🤙

Sounds killer! Really like the version you have here, but having difficulty finding one like that on the market. What version do you have? Also, I have an Eden WTDI. It gives great low end, but I'm wondering, do you think this would sound better after the DI to give it some edge and make it sound less sterile and round off the edges, or before the DI to kind of overdrive it? Thanks. Awesome video!

Great review! Such a shame they don't now (MBD3 is a great new version - still) have a smaller footprint like the MBD2. This video really helped me decide and camp out on ebay, reverb, and others to look into getting it. You were NOT kidding about the old school to the teeth rattling possibilities. Thanks, all great riffs!

@@HondoFelderThanks for your reply. The reason I ask is that I have Thomastik Infeld flats on another bass short scale bass (TY# JF324, 0.043-0.106 for 32" [short scale basses]) and the silks are red, not blue. The only flats I'm personally familiar with that have blue silks are D'Addario Chromes. I did put these on the my new Grez Mendocino shortie and I'm not loving the tone. I was going to try the TIs if I have to, but at $100/set, I'd thought I'd ask first.

Awesome clip 😎🤘🏻🎸 that preamp pedal sounds pretty cool. Especially with distortion pedals. And I personally think preamp pedals sounds better with cab simulators. It makes it sound smoother and more presentable in the band mix. I’ve been checking out other preamp pedals made by master effects and I would totally purchase the super 800(especially since I’m a long time gk player). Other than that. This is a great sounding preamp pedal.

What a great video, Hondo! I've been using the Empress Bass Compressor for a few months and, as you said, the manual is really great and makes understanding what looks like a complicated pedal feel very user friendly and easy to understand. With that said, this video will be a great resource for folks who learn better by watching something like this than reading a manual. You explain everything really well and provide some useful inspiration with your playing. Nice shout on the Benn Jordan video too!
