Title: Tonebender MKII, doesn't sound great with a Micro POG before. SOLVED!!
Post by: rosettastoned on October 08, 2014, 01:22:41 AM
Hi, guys i just finished my Tonebender mkII, I tryed to do it with vintage features (caps, resistors, trannies,etc), it sounds awesome, but when I connect a Micro POG before it (guitar - POG - MKII), the sound lose power.

Any of you guys have had the same problem??? how did you fix it?

regards.

The simple answer is to put other pedals after vintage fuzzes.

but I want A POG before the fuzz, not after, I´ve tryed with some other fuzz but it happen with the MKII and a fuzzface.

Micro Pog is buffered output not true bypass, guessing the buffer is messing with the fuzzes...

I have a micro POG as well, and it's buffer is...not pleasant. I can live with it. Using it in front of my Sunking and it works great. I haven't even tried the Sunking without the micro POG in the chain for so long, I might be surprised with the sound haha.

Ok finally I could solve this problem.

How: as you said, POG is buffered, so I took the buffer off, and now is a TBP POG

Results: It sounds great together.

here a pic of my ULTRAMODED POG.
