As the Plumes Small Signal Shredder continues to defy our wildest sales expectations, we decided to crank it down a couple of notches and design a similar circuit that is ideal for bass players and all purveyors of low end.Behold the mighty Blumes Low Signal Shredder, the first EarthQuaker device created specifically for bass players! The industrious Blumes is also the perfect pedal for guitarists' deep overdrive needs, especially for the drop-tuned masters.
While embodying most of the kick ass characteristics and features of the Plumes, we went ahead and modified this circuit with double the gain and a deeper bass response to retain all the low end. Lower gain settings provide all of the crunchy tone found in the Plumes, but once you get above noon on the gain control, that's where the similarities stop. Now you're in bass country, baby!
This all-analog tri-mode overdrive with soft clipping carries the torch of the classic screamer circuit but has a voice all its own. And thanks to its bipolar power, you'll get more dynamics, clarity, and all the headroom you could ever desire. The end result is a more three-dimensional tone with added clarity that really pushes a nice tube amp over the edge.
And much like the Plumes, this pedal offers three different clipping options to meet all those low end face melting needs.
Mode 1 is symmetrical LED clipping that utilizes a pair of light emitting diodes. This is the crunchiest setting the Blumes has to offer. This signal is less compressed and way more open with tons of output.
Mode 2 is a clean pure OpAmp gain boost mode. This eliminates the soft clipping diodes altogether and leaves you with straight OpAmp drive. This will be the loudest output with the fullest frequency response, and can be used as a clean boost when the Gain control is set below 11 o'clock.
Mode 3 is an asymmetrical silicon diode arrangement similar to the stock screamer but with more output and clean clarity, which provides more transparent tone. Using this mode gives a warmer low-end response and lower output. It's fuzzier with half the output and is the most compressed.
Each Blumes pedal is forged in the deepest, lowest caverns of Akron, Ohio, USA.

Reliable everyday printer paper, no jams and clean prints
Size: 1 Ream | 500 Sheets, Style: Letter (8.5x11)
Standard printer paper that just works. Feeds consistently without jamming across multiple printers I use it in. The brightness level is good and text prints crisp and clear. The 500 sheet ream is a reasonable size to keep on hand. Nothing fancy to say here, it is just reliable paper at a fair price. Amazon Basics has been consistently good for these kinds of commodity items.

If you're looking for a budget-friendly option for everyday printing, this is a solid choice.
Size: 1 Ream | 500 Sheets, Style: Letter (8.5x11)
Let's be honest, reviewing copy paper isn't exactly thrilling. But,et's be honest, reviewing copy paper isn't exactly thrilling. But, if you're buying paper, you expect it to, well, work like paper. And in that regard, the Amazon Basics Multipurpose Copy Paper delivers. It works as paper should.
That's really the core of it. This paper is functional. It's the kind of paper you buy when you need a lot of it without breaking the bank. Here's a quick breakdown:
Pros:
Affordable: This is the biggest selling point. If you're looking for a budget-friendly option for everyday printing, this is a solid choice.
Good for High-Volume Printing: Because of its affordability, it's great for those situations where you're churning out documents and don't want to worry about the cost per page.
Works in Most Printers: I've used it in inkjet and laser printers without any major issues. It's generally reliable in terms of feeding and printing.
Acceptable Brightness: It's not the brightest white paper on the market, but it's acceptable for most general-purpose printing.
Cons:
Not Premium Quality: Don't expect a luxurious feel or exceptionally crisp print quality. It's not designed for high-resolution photos or important presentations.
Can Be a Little Thin: Compared to more expensive paper, it can feel a bit thinner. This might lead to slight show-through if you're printing heavily on both sides.
Packaging Can Sometimes Be Damaged: While not always the case, some users have reported damaged packaging upon delivery. This hasn't affected the paper itself in my experience, but it's something to be aware of.
Overall:
The Amazon Basics Multipurpose Copy Paper is a reliable and affordable option for everyday printing needs. It's not fancy, but it gets the job done. If you're looking for premium quality, look elsewhere. But if you just need a lot of paper, that works as paper should, and at a good price, this is a worthwhile choice.

Reliable Everyday Printer Paper
Size: 1 Ream | 500 Sheets, Style: Letter (8.5x11)
This is standard plain printer paper for everyday home use, and it does exactly what it’s supposed to do without any issues. I have had no problems with paper jams, ink smudging, or feeding through the printer.
The paper is an average thickness, nothing special, but perfectly fine for printing documents. The color is white. It does not curl, and everything comes out clean and readable. It does not stand out in any particular way, but there is also nothing to complain about. Overall, it is reliable, consistent, and works well for regular home printing needs. I will buy again.
