Members book_of_lies777 Posted July 28, 2006 Members Share Posted July 28, 2006 MONKEY SPANKERS UNITE!!!! The Bad Monkey just may be Digitech's best pedal. It's got that sweet fat ANALOG smoothness that really gives your tone a great kick in the ass, or it works as an awesome clean boost as well - and it's only about a third of the price of the so-called 'real' Tube Screamers...

If you want to reduce the mids, just crank the bass and trebel controls all the way up and turn the volume down slightly. I used to own a Keeley modded TS-9 that I paid 150 bucks for. After I bought the Bad Monkey (which pretty much pw3nd it with it's better tone shaping) I sold the Keeley on Ebay. Fortunately I got all my money back.

Members dwerlin Posted July 28, 2006 Members Share Posted July 28, 2006 Bad Monkey's are the best. I had an Ibanez TS9 that I sold after getting the Bad Monkey. I like it that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members IvIark Posted July 28, 2006 Members Share Posted July 28, 2006 I'm in. Into an overdriven amp it's better than any other overdrive I've owned or used and is one of the cheapest. It just adds that extra harmonic sparkle that no other OD has quite matched. Fantastic pedal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Tshields14 Posted July 28, 2006 Members Share Posted July 28, 2006 Im in. got mine years ago and its my favorite piece of gear. I used to call it my talent box beacuse for some reason it just makes my playing that much better, and i can use it for all kinds of music,pretty good for a 39$ pedal.

Members metalhaze Posted July 28, 2006 Members Share Posted July 28, 2006 I use my old SD-1 as a clean boost into my vintage club. How does the bad monkey compare? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mueller Posted July 28, 2006 Members Share Posted July 28, 2006 What are you guys setting your knobs at? I can't seem to get a sound I absolutely love with it. It's still a pretty good pedal and a great deal, I got mine for $30 brand new from MF. Boosting my Classic 50 with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
