Bad obsession guitars

Bad obsession guitars We don’t take ourselves too seriously and like to have a mess about and a bit of old fashioned honest fun.

We’re trying to build a community of guitar lovers and like minded people that want to have a laugh and join in with our guitar adventures. Bad Obsession Guitars is the long talked about dream of 2 failed rock stars that have known each other since school. We believe that many guitarists give up on what is a great musical journey because they simply don't have a good guitar to start with and we wa

nt to change this. Our mission is to provide quality, playable guitars that don't suck, to all guitarist from beginner to advanced level players. All guitars that we sell are preloved affordable instruments worthy of a second chance of happiness in your hands.

Made some solid progress with the new rig this evening! Thanks Orion Guitars UK for the morale support and coffee!

The board is setup and cable routing is done… for now… I may get a patch bay for the Rockboard quad 4.1 to make setting it up to play even easier.

It’s ready for MIDI programming now, which I’m anticipating will be a steep learning curve.

More progress to follow very soon!

Hi everyone! Paul here. Hope you’re having a good week so far.

I’ve never been a fan of fuzz pedals, however I managed to find a second hand fuzzy fuzz Foxy Tone Box pedal from Warm Audio that I thought was worth giving a try. I’m mightily impressed! It definitely sounds the business, coupled to a Jam Pedals Retrovibe mkIV.

In other news, parts have arrived to begin the assembly of a highly ambitious (for me at least), new digital rig. More on that tomorrow!

If anyone would like to see (or help out!!!) these tomorrow, I’ll be at the Toy Shop from 6:30pm ish

Evening all! Paul here. I hope everyone is enjoying some weekend rest.

Something a little different - gasp! “no guitars!?” I hear you say. Fear not, it’s all part of Matt and I’s tonal quest to recreate legendary tones with varying budgets, so there will be something for everyone… a bit like crisps.

What musical period excites you most?

What crisps tickled your taste buds more than the others?

I’ll be down at the toy shop on Tuesday if anyone fancies popping in to talk all things guitar, tone and savoury snacks. I’ll also be starting some experimentation on a new guitar rig, so if anyone fancies seeing it in progress, I’ll happily show what I’m doing (attempting to do!!).

I’m partial to a Tomato Snap myself!

Good morning Pluckers Matt here, Due to some unexpected circumstances I’m having to take a step away from s***z n giggles for a short time. Paul will be steadying the good bad obsession ship and on my return we’ll be diving into the many Digitech pedals I’ve purchased because I’m an idiot.

Cheers pluckers, see you on the flip side.

So on my quest for “Back in the day pedals” I scoured Evil bay to bring you something from the mid 2000’s I was going to reveal them but I accidentally won another one today so you’ll have to wait.

One was a whopping £75 quids back in the day, that’s bloody Christmas present territory that is lol 😂

This might help you pluckers? I’ve just had a play about with it. Put your pedals in at it will help you place them in the correct order.

Tap a pedal to run it in stereo — it turns green and moves to the very end of the chain, the last loops before your amps. On a G3 each takes a pair of loops (left + right); on an Atom the loop switches to stereo over TRS cables.

We had way more fun with these than we thought we would in the toy shop last night and we both agreed they don’t sound as bad as we remember them sounding.

We’ll be doing a side by side video to put on YouTube in the near future but in the meantime I’ll be having a play about with them a little bit more over the weekend.
