Crazy Tube Circuits MOTHERLOAD - Rat and Big Muff Distortion / Fuzz

[@TheGuitarGeek]

What's the first riff you'd unleash through this feisty little pedal? Here's the link if you want one! thmn.to/thoprod/563007?offid=1&affid=288

[@TheMerc1950]

The wolf mother riff is exactly what I was going to play through it!

[@astrodadmusic]

I really enjoy your videos, Andy. As others have mentioned, your explanations and descriptions are clear and easy to follow. So, thanks for that! I only recently started exploring the groovy world of fuzz (I’ve always been an OD/distortion guy), and this pedal is now on my radar. And, yes, it’s such a great thing when you find a pedal that inspires you to play! Rock on, mate! (Mummy, can I have one?)

[@CMHobbies]

Mummy, I want this one. Good explanations!

[@JaniceLalla]

Just want to say that your explanations are very clear and easy to understand and not "over my head" I totally understand what you are saying and i enjoyed the demo and the way you were playing and I really like the combination of your hair and your glasses and Mummy can I have one?

[@hb8482]

The voicing knob is a high pass filter - all the way to the right gets much more bassy and midheavy. To the left it is cutting the low end. CTC describe it on their website.

[@benboruff]

First riff? You already nailed it with Touch me I'm sick! Great sounding pedal, Mummy. Can I have one?!

[@backlom]

Great demo. Now mummy, can I have one.

[@dirtdigglerthepig]

Kewl pedal!

[@carwynvan]

Andy, can I have one!? 😂 That sounds absolutely killer, and I've been on a bit of a RAT spree lately too ha ha

[@sippinthefnordies]

I've been staring at the gigantic big muff pi hogging my pedal board and thinking about various muff/rat combo pedals to do the job instead, so this is a very timely video! Mummy, can I have one?

[@christiantaylor4027]

That thing sounds great. I want two please. Christmas in march?

[@waynedoherty7758]

Pretty cool way to save space. How does the rat side compare to a 1981 Drv? Mummy can I have one?

[@smexybeast2223]

Mummy, do you think they'll get me one?

[@saarangnarayan123]

This pedal NEEDs a deluxe version with options for Op-Amp and LED clipping. Mummy, can I have one like that, please? A pedal like that would 100% give the Animalizzer on my board a run for its money! I honestly liked it equally with both the Fender and the Victory; different flavours, different uses. Btw, that new Victory Sherriff needs a dedicated demo 👀

[@saarangnarayan123]

Btw, this pedal should definitely have been called the Riff Raff.

[@dalepal]

Great demo Andy! I have to ask…Mummy can I have one?

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Thank you Dale. It’s a blinder isn’t it

[@garyoneill5648]

Hmmm do I need this…Mummy-can I have one 😂

[@rkphilpot]

Forgive me if you have but have you done a video on that Jupiter? It's stunning.

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Yep! It’s on the channel!

[@rkphilpot]

@@TheGuitarGeek I posted that before the end of the video, mummy can I have one?!

[@matzer8846]

Hm ... the naming is quirky ... would rather have called it "rat in a weedy rut" .... which describes the sound quite well ... its just good Your tone filter explanation is really on the point ... i use a Muff with a tone stack bypass switch to cope with this ...

[@ErikSamys]

I can't really ask my mummy for one since she's not here anymore. But I can ask someone else. Wifey, can I have one? Some of the sounds you were getting out of that I could hear other things in. That is a sweet sounding pedal.

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Sorry to bring that up Erik. I didn’t think. I hope you get to try the Motherload out

[@moewhocooper]

Not that if buy a pedal that cost so much as a beginner but that is the only Muff iv liked so far. Even tho the Muff is I. A ton of the songs I like.

[@allanflippin2453]

"mummy can I have one?" Andy, I received a Walrus Eons for Christmas, largely your fault :D Do you have any thoughts about Motherload vs. Eons? Thanks for the well-thought out review!

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Hey you’re welcome! It seems like i need a shootout. I’ll get it done dude

[@allanflippin2453]

@@TheGuitarGeek It seems to me the Eons has some creamy fuzz sounds that the Motherload doesn't. I'll look forward to hearing more from you. For now, I'm quite happy making ridiculous loud noises with what I have :D

[@discocrisco]

Request for a video explaining tone words. Would love to hear you talk about sounds you like and words to describe then. Not done with the video, just pretend I said the magic end of the video words.

[@matzer8846]

Next video demand: use a BadMonkey and this pedal and make them sound alike

[@PooNinja]

Can a brother have one, it’s a brother load of saturation. Brother can carry more than mother.

[@chrispfeifer7628]

I'm a huge Electro Harmonix fan. I'll have to pass on this one. Would prefer the deluxe big muff, or the deluxe sovtech muff or

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Can I ask why?

[@AdamCox2010]

Great company but the positive ground circuits are a pain in my neck of the woods.

[@MaxPower-js1sk]

I need one. Mummy, can I have one?

[@andsoistopped]

Mummy can I have one?

[@TheMerc1950]

Quit it Andy, i need to save money for moving to Germany!!!

[@TheGuitarGeek]

Alles klar 😂

[@nine9whitepony526]

Mummy can i have one

[@CC-fi3pp]

I just want a RAT (preferably whiteface or vintage accurate) not this awful looking thing.
