I got one too, if DoS makes it in time.

Reason being I've been trying to find a fucking metal zone for under 50ish Euro where I live for almost 2 months, and now there's boneshakers for 40$? ez.

Believe me, if I could find a mt-2 for 22$ I'd buy it.

Is this three parallel boneshakers going through a boneshaker?

I mean, it's not technically parallel, but it's close On the tele terror project, I have going has 3 diagonal pickups.

So I basically have isolated outputs for each pair of strings. I'm building a pedal that will have one multi-pin cable input, now a boneshaker per pickup, and a standard 1/4in output for separate FX chains.

Why? Because I was bored one day and morange gave me a free tele body that I butchered up.

This is seriously cool. You have a similar potential with hexaphonic pickups. A hexapedal setup sounds insane, though. I could easily wrap my head around a tripedal setup.

I might say though, the Boneshaker mostly works with high output pick ups, loses a lot with anything low gain.

You play licks on a guitar, and you can lick a banana. Therefore bananas = guitars.

As far as the Boneshaker, I'm mainly looking for the flexible eq settings on it. Plus, it's cheap, so I could afford to resell them if needed. My pickups are generally hot too.

I looked into hexaphonic pickups and other solutions, but nothing out there on the market fit my bill. And most had bulky attachments. Asked a few pickup builders, and none of the ones I asked wanted to build me 2 pole pickups at the quality of a 6 pole one. So I went with my solution.

Plus, it's more fun to DIY and solve a puzzle in my opinion. I'm not always the best at DIY stuff, so I enjoy a challenge I can rise to.

Can confirm. The Boneshaker is really cool. Love it for rhythm more than leads. Way less gain than people might think. Max gain is probably about the halfway point of an MT-2, which is the sweet spot (for me) anyway.

That feel when you've been dead set on a pedal for months, but go back and watch demos and come out underwhelmed, causing you to rethink your entire existence.
