PedalsAndEffects: Justin Meldal-Johnsen & Malekko Diabolik Fuzz

PedalsAndEffects covers the collaboration of Malekko and Justin Meldal-Johnsen with the release of the DIABOLIK fuzz pedal!!
Based on the B:ASSMASTER circuit, the DIABOLIK features a preset harmonic spectrum setting allowing crisp octave overtones and a very aggressive tone setting. Working with Justin, Malekko tuned the low frequency to allow more low end to pass through both the CLEAN and FUZZ channels.
This video was shot and edited by Scott Ward for Vato Negro Productions.

So rad to see you both hangin out together!!!! You guys are both such great bass players and have done so much for bass players as a whole! Great up Juan!!!
Sick pedal!

[@dantelamusta]

I know that it’s been awhile since this video was posted but I put off buying this for quite some time. I have to say that this bass fuzz is super versatile! It plays really well with drives and modulation as well! I love using it for low gain synth sounds and gnarly fuzz distortion! Thanks JMJ and Juan Alderete! Much love! Be creative and make weird music forever!

The Diabolik sounds a lot bassier than the B:ASSMASTER. I really like it.

[@cactus_judy3929]

this guy is fucking brilliant. Great producer, great performer, bright personality, fucking amazing pedal.

[@flagainst3]

[@Guitar_Smasher]

Eureka! My quest for the perfect bass fuzz ends here!

[@annhilist7790]

[@joycesanders4898]

Fuzz yeah!🤘great box👍🎶

[@SergioDuFont]

such a rad pedal, thanks for the vid!

[@mrBassArte]

Hi, exellent demo/playing! How it response, work with active bass and hot pickups? Jazz bass for example? Does it fails as other similar sounding fuzzes (wooly mamooth, FOG etc... ) beacause of input impedance or not? THX in advance!

[@labgnat]

Such an Awesome Pedal, you really have to get one!

[@j.matthewnoonan8062]

I got one and if I push the "fuzz" knob past about 9 o'clock it's suddenly almost twice as loud as my dry signal? Did I get a defective pedal or is this pedal just stupid?

[@spencerherbert3585]

J. Matthew Noonan you did not. All who use this pedal have voice how it is quite loud. Use a blend or in the mix experiment with the fuzz level and clean.

Bridget Riley art on a bass fuzz luv it xoxox

[@RootsBassCanada]

I'm not a fuzz guy but I want that!

[@andysick5277]

JMJ!

[@kristianbackbrant7331]

Use speaker microphone please! When you guys talk is very moddy in my phone.

[@jcast90able]

What are the settings at 5:30?

[@toefes]

Holy sh**, how did he do that 'glitch' kind of sound at 5:01?

[@discobassgroove]

+toefes harmonics and the fuzz at a more gated setting? not sure

[@thombrady420]

+toefes It's a harmonic with the Squish knob set high. There's a ton of saturation at that point.

[@TheyCallMeNoName34]

Does this pedal cut threw in a band if i'm using it with my bass? I saw on one of the Fuzz wars vidoes that they said the Wren & Cuff tall font Russian does very well cutting threw so I was thinking that but how about this pedal???

[@thombrady420]

+SoseBass 11/2 It cuts through mixes very well. The pedal has a pronounced midrange characteristic, therefore, it's really hard to bury it in a mix.
