"Bassist from the Long Winters, Eric Corson, talks bass pedals. Specifically, the Crumar CPB-2. He references John Vanderslice's drummer and the inevitable Geddy Lee."

"Up for sale/auction is a rare, vintage analog bass pedal synthesizer, the CPB-2, made in Italy in the early 1980's. The label on its side says, "Manufactured for Music Technology, Inc. by Elettronica", and was built in a joint venture by Italian synthesizer manufacturer, Crumar and it is very much like a Moog Taurus - only much cheaper. I picked this up last year when I joined a new band, but other then sampling a few sounds this has sat unused and thus needs to go. This synth is in good but not perfect working order. The controller pots are all a bit on the scratchy side and if you're looking for an analog synth you can change sounds on the fly with, you might have to clean or replace a couple pots (most the 'tune' one is the scratchiest.) Everything else works mint and this puppy sounds very FAT when in doubled mode (plus it's got that cool resonance only an analog synth has.)"
