    Apparently the answer to the question "how many dirt pedals do I need?" is still "one more."

    It's like a fuzz, but it sounds like it almost doesn't want to distort. A little bit of actual blown speaker. I like it.

    If it's good enough to go on Joe Perry's board right next to his Klon Centaur, it's good enough for me.

    It def has the lower sustain and crippling sag at higher settings; the eq becomes all important, with that tonal push/ pull.
    Is good as an always on, with something 808 to front or rear for a little midrange diversity.Used 2 settings consistently without touching it much.Worth checking out, being a little bit different,-but thought the Walrus 385 does the vibe a little better.

    Danelectro fucking rock! I LOVE their guitars. I have a 12 string 59, a black and white one like Jimmy Page’s and it’s fantastic! They prove that most of those “boutique” effects are an overpriced con.

    John loves his B bender. He is a good example of a country player.
    I think Jimmy Page has a stack of gear at his disposal, I don’t know if he used it often.

  • @bradleyshuppert3393
    @bradleyshuppert3393 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Almost a tweed sounding pedal on certain things. Thank God it works well using your volume knob. Most pedals that model a vintage sound crashes as you turn down because the chip that they sound was burnt to wants to see full impedance input from the guitar. Line 6 is a classic example of turning down the volume knob and losing all articulation and the amp / pedal becomes spitty and nasal….. I love this pedal!!! Everyone who demos this has sold me on it.
