Is the Danelectro Fab Tone a hidden classic or should we leave it in the 90s? - Baritone at the end!

[@ScienceofLoud]

No mids, all the gain. The late 90s/early 00s punk riffs sounded excellent with this. I might have to get one for nostalgic purposes. There's a cocked wah quality to this and it would probably pair nicely with a dark sounding amp.

[@bipbipletucha]

But will you be haired without the mids?

[@JimETeez]

SCOOP!!!!

[@myeyesarewaiting]

Yup, I remember those things... Utterly savage. I knew a guy in a band who had one of these, a Russian Muff and a metal zone, all on his gigging board. It was like he was on a mission for the highest gain pedalboard ever.

As best I'm aware (and I did some serious digging on this one) the Fab Tone is the Metal Zone circuit without the parametric EQ, which is of course the glory and simultaneously the downside of the MT-2. It's basically a Grunge pedal 😏

[@pleinclosens8304]

Yeah it cuts through the mix really well. I had my bandmate use it and he had a better tone that I did live lol. I was using a Shredmaster, although with the mids scooped.

[@groadies]

I used one of these on bass in the 90s. The Death Metal guy at the local guitar shop had to clue me into it because I assumed it would have less gain than the Daddy O that I was demo’ing. It was an absolute crowd destroyer when going into a high wattage head and 2x15 cabinet and playing in drop C. I assumed it was broken because the tamest tones it could get were way beyond what the Musicians Friend catalog description said it could do. To the point that I assume the copy writer didn’t even try the thing. I went through a couple because the jacks and pots were so crummy but still have a (mostly) working one. This series definitely wins the award for “heaviest pedal with the crappiest connectors/pots.”

[@stephenhodge6441]

I was a drummer in a garage band in junior high. That was back in like 97 I think. And of course my guitarist had this. The sound makes me smile thinking about older times.

[@JasonWW2000]

Does your Fab knob work like Ryan's? His seems to do very little, almost like something is wrong with it. Shouldn't it allow you to control how much distortion its creating? As is, Ryan's pedal pretty much always sounds the same, except for the tone controls.

[@tgarder]

hey I found one of these danelectro pedals in a box from my youth, the Daddy-O, I remember not loving it then but I really like it now as an adult and people say it's supposed to be a Guv'nor clone? You guys ever tried that one?

[@jaybirdk7414]

The Fab Tone is like a pickaxe to break through the ice! Man, who’d ‘ve thought a junky-looking maroon “owl” of a pedal would be so deliciously NASTY!? I say that in all seriousness; my Fab is joined by my Daddy O (sharing relevance with a Tube Screamer and a Soul Food) and an 18 volt Cool Cat, which I’d put up against a Jazz Chorus or a Small Clone any day. I don’t ever really use echo, but I do love the Dan-Echo pedal. It inspires me to step out a bit, and try some stuff outside my usual comfort zone that I usually don’t play out of sheer design. A bit of slapback echo can thicken a mix, or sweeten a slow bend just EVER so much. All of the “owl” pedals were awesome, and many of the food-themed ones were surprisingly useful as well. Bad thing is, though, that using one on a pedalboard is a bit of a…commitment, really. It’s more of an aging Gen X thing for me these days, but I still play them often.

[@st.aliaoftheknife9486]

Besides plastic jacks, I really love the enclosures but they are one trick ponies..

[@keithfriend2118]

Hi Alex, The other guitarist in my band back in late 90's had an original Marshall Governor. I used the Fab Tone when I really needed highly contrasting tone to his on a few solos. I agree there are some similarities in the tone and texture of these two. However, the other guy left is Govn'r on most of the time and got a great tone. I could never dial in a good basic rock tone with my Fab, I just used it to pop out of the mix occasionally.

[@BH-fi1sb]

[@keithfriend2118]

Catching this video a little late. You did a good review. I agree with your observations. Yep, I have one of these. Somebody I can't remember gave me this pedal during my punk/metal days in the late 90s. I never used it as my main tone since I got my overdrive sound from the front end of a Laney AOR amp head. For variety on a couple of songs in our set, I stomped on the Fab Tone and switched to my amp's clean channel for a real fluid "singing tone" lead. This pedal sounds like garbage through a clean, bright practice amp; but, through a half stack on an cranked amp with lots of mids and compression, it sounded amazing. I always used minimum gain on the pedal and tweaked the eq to sound thick through my rig (hard to do because of the twitchy eq knobs). Just like some cooking, the Fab Tone is a spice best used sparingly.

[@peterhicks6328]

try both pedals together. also the danelectro gives you that green day 90s sound. very cool

[@BlueTheChannel]

I was thinking the same!

[@jameslewis2635]

To be fair, as a bassist I would only use distortion with a plectrum - finger style with distortion tends to become mushy and indistinct where that extra twang from a plectrum helps to cut through the mix. I think this pedal is probably much better for bass than for guitar but I would much rather use something like a Rat style drive sound but in general the Fab Tone is just way too harsh for my ears. Generally the biggest difference in most bass overdrives and distortion from their guitar counterparts is the ability to mix in a dry signal. This is useful as a pure distortion tone on top of a traditional bass tone (more bass heavy and low in treble like in motown recordings) tends to sound very mushy and adding some dry signal on top can help to reach some clarity of sound. And surprisingly the Two Princetons rig seems to make for a pretty good bass sound, just don't turn it up too high or you may end up catching the speaker cones.

[@KelticKabukiGirl]

Most Metal bassists Don't use a pick, if you play with your fingers properly, you can get enough attack, also, that is what comps and eqs are for. Worked for me since 1989

[@999Lucas]

As iconic as this pedal is, it only makes a very limited range of sounds, which as he says, is exactly what people wanted back then. I feel like the knobs are useless on this thing as opposed to circuits that have a nice color as the gain rises/falls. Of all the door stops the French Toast and Cool Cat were two standouts. I dont know how usable the pedals are, but certainly timecapsules in their own right, much like the fab.

Awesome. If you wanna find the overlap between the HM-2 and Fab Tone, KILL the highs on the HM-2 and dime the lows. It's been a while since I've done that but for a while, I did real noisy stuff and ran the HM-2 that way (MIJ or MIT makes no difference). The two don't sound exactly the same but get real close there. My Fab Tone lives with my HM-2, Fender Blender reissue and Univox Superfuzz. I used it for really "lo-fi" noisy garage and art rock in the 90s. I used mine A LOT on a 12 string electric (neck pickups) going to a tube amp; one pair o' strings at a time; sounded like a B 29 buzzing the house.
