There are so so many drive pedals to choose from these days... Impossible to settle on just one for an extended period. I will dig my heels in and stick to my Origin Effects Bassrig Super Vintage as my one OD pedal but Damn, I could easily just play with these pedals all day...
Life got in the way a little bit but I'm back for the drive! I think the Pork and Pickle deserves its spot. It's ubiquitous and readily available and it's super consumer friendly. The B85 and the Jellyfish are definitely incredible pedals. I think in a perfect world I'll eventually get them both lol.
@@thewetterbassyeah it’s a (I think) modified Pork Loin on the OD and their Russian Pickle on the other side. I think the B85 Germanium Overdrive may be based on the Hudson Sidecar too, but I’m not sure about that.
@@thewetterbass If you do a rat shootout, make sure to give the fuzzrocious cat tail a try! Oh, and the Mask Audio Civil Math (big muff) is worth a look too.
Like all overdrive you have some white noise the more you increase gain. It’s inevitable unless the pedal has a gate. In the case of the B85 it’s quite acceptable.
Thanks for the quick answer. You are absolutely right. But it varies quite a bit. I tried the Earthquaker Devices Blumes this week and it was horrible.
I ended up buying a jellyfish because of this video. Sounds exactly like this video in person. Only problem is it sounds so good as a preamp with the distortion below noon to ever turn it off.
Oh, then yes, never turn it off.😜 I also have the gain below noon on mine. Then I blast the Blumes almost as a clean booster into it whenever I need more dirt. This allows me to instantly get more saturation out of the Jellyfish. The sum of the crunchiness of the Blumes + the distortion from the jellyfish makes everything sound bigger and more aggressive.
Obvious winner in this interesting category of more or less more old-school type sounds... The Kasleder FX Jellyfish you can actually really use onstage. You can hear it instantly. Their Albatross fuzz is just as great. No surprise. They’re designed by a bassplayer.... I’m very happy to own and actually use both quite a lot. Love the beautiful Pork&Pickle too! Of course! She sits on my shelf and I love to just look at her. 🖖
The last one definitely sounds the best of the lot. 💯 on overdrive pedals not needing a blend to sound good. In fact you've proven that guitar pedals 'designed' for guitar can work on bass. It opens up so many possibles if people just try things.
Yes, right? I still think that blend knobs are useful for effects that loose transients or low end for example. In other words: greatly needed to retain note definition.
I did a “Quick Look at” video using the same loops.ruclips.net/video/CkDIsWAG0xM/видео.htmlsi=xVXiDQstEjSS5jY0 But yes, I might do a more in depth review, after all it is on my pedalboard!!!
cool series! thanks for doing this. Definitely adding some of these to my GAS list. Just curious, have you seen/tried a genzler 4 on the floor OD? from your other videos it seems like something you might enjoy.
Man, those really are great ones. Thank you so much for doing this! My only concern is that if I buy one, I'd enjoy it for a week, then go back to my Darkglass Vintage Microtubes. I can't get that thing off my board. 😅
If you like that vintage sound then it’s a keeper. The only reason I’d change is for a different tone or to stack drive pedals, something I enjoy doing.
Personalmente mis 2 favoritos de los 4 videos los tengo claros, me encantaría una comparación entre ellos, también se ajustan un poco a mis necesidades y estilo: 1) kasleder Jelly Fish, solo me hace dudar el tamaño, pero al menos todas las entradas y salidas estan en la parte superior. Respecto al sonido en comparación con los demás no tiene rival 2)One Control Blackberry, me encanta y llevo tiempo queriendo que forme parte de mi pedalera y el pote de Body creo que puede hacer magia en un contexto de banda, pero es solo una impresión nunca lo he probado 3)Pork and Pickle, pedal muy completo y si consigues una configuración identica para OD y fuzz solo moviendo el switch te puede ahorrar mucho espacio en la pedalera y dolores de cabeza en concierto, lo he elegido por su versatilidad.
my take is still, hear me out, the best way to get a good tone, erhum, is to find a pedal which sonic character appeals to you, and then, run a megaboosted completely obliterated signal into it, and see how it behaves, crank all knobs, and then reshape the curve with a graphic eq. some pedals marketed for 'low gain warmth' turn out to be firebreathing doom monsters 👀 tune low play slow ! 👾🐋
Joer… como eres!!! 😂 ahora toca los compromisos con pedales de Flattley, one control, Goliath fx, mozztronics y preparar los siguientes shootouts: rats y big muff.
These pedals sound pretty cool. Between these 3 overdrive pedals, I personally liked the way huge pork and pickle the most.
Awesome pedal, yes!

I could listen to you play with the kasleder all day
😊

P&P is a great pedal!!! I love the raw energy of the B85 germanium and refinement of the jellyfish.
No surprise on the Pork n Pickle, I loved the original Pork Loin!
I don’t know how close they are to each other sound wise. I only know the P&P is based on the Loin.
@@thewetterbassyeah it’s a (I think) modified Pork Loin on the OD and their Russian Pickle on the other side.
I think the B85 Germanium Overdrive may be based on the Hudson Sidecar too, but I’m not sure about that.
Ok, I will check it out!
Such a fun series! Now you've gotta shootout 48 more and see if anything can dethrone the Kasleder which was my #1 pick
😂 48 again? Maybe half 🤓… I’m planning of doing smaller rat and big muff shootout before. Stay tuned!!!
@@thewetterbass If you do a rat shootout, make sure to give the fuzzrocious cat tail a try! Oh, and the Mask Audio Civil Math (big muff) is worth a look too.
Does the 2. B85 AUDIO GERMANIUM OVERDRIVE produce (white) noise or is it quiet (no noise)? Thanks for the answer.
Like all overdrive you have some white noise the more you increase gain. It’s inevitable unless the pedal has a gate. In the case of the B85 it’s quite acceptable.
Thanks for the quick answer. You are absolutely right. But it varies quite a bit. I tried the Earthquaker Devices Blumes this week and it was horrible.
Cool sounds, and you've got some nice grooves. That's a massive sound with that last pedal.
Thanks!

Kasleder is really on to something special with their pedals. I hope to own one someday
Lovely pedal, yes.
😂 Great series. Thanks for taking the time to do that!
I think I needed it more than anyone… 💸😂
Your videos are premium entertainment! Thank you!
😊

The drive knob also has a clean blend function. More gain, more clean. It’s pretty slick.
You mean the jellyfish?
@@thewetterbass yessir
Great series! But now we have to do it all over with the Blumes! Any chance on a video about it soon? 😆
I did a “Quick Look at” video using the same loops.ruclips.net/video/CkDIsWAG0xM/видео.htmlsi=xVXiDQstEjSS5jY0
But yes, I might do a more in depth review, after all it is on my pedalboard!!!
Obrigado pelo Vídeo como eu tenho a TONEX vou baixar esses pedais nela!

Hi! No I didn’t yet. Seems like a great versatile drive.
Man, those really are great ones. Thank you so much for doing this!

Hola! Haré un vídeo del blackberry, junto a otros pedales de one control, dentro de un mes y medio.
my take is still, hear me out, the best way to get a good tone, erhum, is to find a pedal which sonic character appeals to you, and then, run a megaboosted completely obliterated signal into it, and see how it behaves, crank all knobs, and then reshape the curve with a graphic eq. some pedals marketed for 'low gain warmth' turn out to be firebreathing doom monsters 👀
tune low play slow ! 👾🐋
Awesome idea! Next time we’ll give that a go. 😉
Perfect video. Great pedals. Cool playing. Good job
😊
was the 3leaf audio Doom2 in the contest?
😢 wished it would have!!!
y ahora? envelope filter shootout? chorus shootout? octaver shootout? no queda otra que activar la campanita...
Joer… como eres!!! 😂 ahora toca los compromisos con pedales de Flattley, one control, Goliath fx, mozztronics y preparar los siguientes shootouts: rats y big muff.
@@thewetterbass ahh bueno, hay cositas en camino, con eso voy tirando.
si tuviese un b85 no lo apagaria nunca.
