It's a bird... it's a plane... it's a bass VI. Now what the heck is a bass VI...? Well, it's a bass. Aaaaand it's a guitar.... Introduced by Fender in the sixties, the bass VI model is an odd one out. Tuned an octave lower than a regular guitar this thing acts as a bass but has PAF style humbuckers and plays more like a guitar than a bass due to the quite slim neck. SubZero is Gear4Music's own brand and is a cheap brand but it way extended my expectations. Sure, it has it's imperfections but give it some love and it's bang for the buck. Heavy riffing on this will blow your mind. Very inspiring to play as it forces you out of your comfort zone.

This one is a *beast* - in the true essence of the word. It took some time to tame it but once you get it under your thumb it can create some truly beautiful disastrous sounds. The first thing you should know and get before trying to understand these circuits is that the knobs are actually mirrored, so 10 is 0 and 0 is 10. I have no idea whether this was intentional but at first, before you realize this, this pedal will just scream in your face and your only thought will be that it's broken. However, once you know the knobs are mirrored, it gets a little easier. The trick here is to be **very** gentle with the knobs and go from 0 to not much more, because beastness. The effect loop in this thing adds extra dimensions of awesomeness but the same is true for the pedal you decide to stick in the loop - be gentle and add just a little bit of whatever that pedal does. I've got a Stone Grey Distortion stuck in the effect loop atm and it adds just about the right amount of warmth to the fuzziness. This pedal is super cool, and, if you put in the time to get to know and understand it, it sounds great. You can get sounds out of this that other pedals just won't give you. Beautiful disaster indeed.
