I have the "new" Crunch box, it has oodles of gain, but it sounds way more like a dimed amp than ANY boss I have ever used! great pedal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members letterswewrote Posted January 21, 2007 Members Share Posted January 21, 2007 ya really nothing at all alike. i cant think of anything to say but that the CB sounds "better" to me in nearly every way... more gain, smoother, quite, more saturated and full... no contest imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 88mm Posted January 21, 2007 Author Members Share Posted January 21, 2007 I think the DS-2 has a fair amount of gain. I don't think it is really that bad. A touch too much in th the MIDS though. I just wanted to know if they are really that much different in sound. If it would be wise to get a CB or not. How does the CB stack with Fuzz Face types and with Big Muffs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A touch too much in th the MIDS though. I just wanted to know if they are really that much different in sound. If it would be wise to get a CB or not. How does the CB stack with Fuzz Face types and with Big Muffs? again, totally different. high gain distortion vs fuzz. its a matter of preference. alot of goatee wearing, poetry reciting, hipster beatniks find distortion to be too plain and uninventive so they need something that sounds more {censored}ed up and less conventional. theyd prefer fuzz. on the other hand alot of manicured sideburns wearing, van halen playing, killswitch engage t-shirt wearing, hanging out at guitarcenter playing arpeggios at 100 watts for 2 hours, angry suburban 14 yr olds find fuzz too undefining and flabby sounding.

Members mattpas Posted January 21, 2007 Members Share Posted January 21, 2007 im interested in the crunchbox too. but you trying to compare it to a boss...how does a porsche compare to a rocking chair? DAMN STRAIGHT! I had a DS-2 and the Crunch Box beats it hands down. There is no comparison. If you want a great distortion sound that works great with humbuckers and single coils and has a great balance of lows, mids, and highs get the crunch box. If you want a hollow sounding, no tone controlable sound keep the DS-2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members 88mm Posted January 21, 2007 Author Members Share Posted January 21, 2007 When I said How does the crunch box stack. I meant having a Fuzz Face or Big Muff pushing a Crunch box. Has anyone done this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MonkeyKnifeFighter Posted January 21, 2007 Members Share Posted January 21, 2007 Well, when I said "How does a crunch box stack?", I meant how well do they stack up on each other in a physical sense? I mean, could I build a retaining wall around my terrace using a mimimal amount of mortar? Has anyone done this? ~MkF!"Third and two!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
