    I've got the lush flanger for my birthday I was so impressed by the sound that I can create I will be looking for more of them. Oh and this little pedal gives me exactly what I need for she sells sanctuary by the cult.

    I bought this pedal 2 days ago and it's my favourite overdrive pedal , works perfect with my fender amp.

    I have this pedal and use it on all of my worship gigs as well as my cover band. It can do a lot of awesome stuff and really is as good as this video suggests. Placed it in front of my Orange Dark and good golly kids... it’s amazing. It’s also my favorite overdrive pedal in my setup and I honestly use it more than my OCD.

    Just wanted to say, I had no idea how to create a perfect tone. But you had a great vid I saw that helped me out. Your reviews and tips on tones really helped out in so many ways. Keep up the good work dude 😃

    Their other pedals are also pretty bad ass. I thought about getting their entire set of pedals (minus a couple I would never use), since they're not really expensive, and make a tiny gig board with a Pedal Train mini. Talk about your portable rig. Multi-effects boxes would accomplish the same thing, but seriously - which setup looks more bad-ass, a Pod HD, or a rack of these bad boys.

    Really like these little stompboxes, I have the Komp compressor from Hotone and it's fantastic

    This one will make my 4th Hotone pedal for my board---Grass overdrive, Choir chorus, EKO Delay, and now this. Good observation on the BOSS Blues overdrive fuzzing out at higher gain settings---that was the factor that made me buy this one, since I didn't like fuzz (Keef did that trick best with a Maestro anyway!). These pedals have remarkable sound quality, and it's making my board smaller!

    Just got the Lift clean boost and it's not bad as an overdrive as well. Love these little suckas!

    Another cool video. Thanks for being active and sharing with us whats new. And just a quick info , you have fans all the way in Saudi Arabia q:
    Keep it loud bro

  • @NihiLizTikVoiD
    @NihiLizTikVoiD 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Actually you can use this pedal after a high gain pedals just to take advantage of it's "frequency-widing" characteristic and rich boost. Excellent for it's price and way better than the TS808 after comparison.

    Nice review. When do you think you will do a mod video on the Boss DS-1?

  • @preciousyetvicious

    Awww, it's so little and cute! And it sounds great, to boot. Great demo! :-)

  • @log.dog_1312
    @log.dog_1312 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Can't find any videos of this played on bass... Don't know if I should just chance buying it or not, sounds great, decent price too.

    • @ScienceofLoud
      @ScienceofLoud  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      I used it on bass to create the intro track on this video.
      Used it as a clean boost to thicken up the signal a little, certainly works well for that. Didn't try adding hair to it though. I'll maybe have a little experiment and tell you how it goes.

  • @AlexRooneyComposer

    The biggest question is does it Dorje?!

    • @ScienceofLoud
      @ScienceofLoud  9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Alex Rooney I seem to remember a video where Rob and the Captain did a very quick test of each of the Hotone pedals and if my memory serves they were both very impressed with this one.

    • @AlexRooneyComposer
      @AlexRooneyComposer 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      CSGuitars I remember watching that one did he play white dove with it I can't remeber(White dove is my favorite Dorje song and my ringtone)!

    • @guitar19971
      @guitar19971 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Alex Rooney I think it sounds better for AC/DC than Dorje. Can't hurt to try though.

  • @2969jlc

    This is a great review! I am stuck between this pedal and Hotone Skyline Grass. Have you tried that one?

  • @DouglasBWelch

  • @RyanWright

    2:30 those pedals aren't not much bigger than a dang 9v. I've got the Fat Tone clean boost pedal from them... :)

  • @Tzk-Zaku

    could this pedal clean a joyo bantamp zombie flabby low end? similar to a mesa 5150

  • @guitar19971
    @guitar19971 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Looks cool, sounds great. May need to consider trying it if it truly does sound better than the tubescreamer. Did you know that Jim Dunlop unveiled a mini cry baby Wah at this year's Namm show? Its exactly as it sounds: a classic crybaby in miniature but with true bypass added. If you can maybe you should consider giving it a try cause I'd be interested to hear your opinion: I know you're a big fan of the classic wah pedal as am I.

    Yo Colin, I'm looking into versatile amps to save for and I'm stuck between a Bugera as it's versatile and en EVH 5150 50 watt just for metal, heard a lot of issues with reliability in Bugeras, you ever had a problem with yours?

    • @ScienceofLoud
      @ScienceofLoud  10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Brandon,
      As far as I'm aware the reliability issues with Bugera were with the very early models. Mud sticks however, so despite all Bugera amps for the last few years being much more reliable, people are still talking bad about them.
      My Bugera has never had any issues in the 2 years or more that I've owned it.
      I've played it live many times, traveled with it and used it extensively for home and studio. I have upgraded all the valves in it, purely because the stock valves aren't all that great.
      I do find their amps to be extremely versatile and there are few amps that will sound as good for the amount of money you'll spend.

    • @BScalesguitar
      @BScalesguitar 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      CSGuitars
      Yeah that's the impression I got, that there was a stigma around them because of the early issues. Didn't they move factories to China or something like that, aint really looked into it... Thanks though, keeping it in mind!

  • @BadMotivator66
    @BadMotivator66 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    great video and audio quality! you get new gear? pedal sounds pretty good to! been considering a drive pedal as my distortion pedal isn't giving me the crunch i want

    • @jaymillard8033
      @jaymillard8033 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      I would consider the boss sd1, it's a really nice overdrive that has a wide range of gain. Smooth bluesy tones all the way up to saturated leads. It's a valve like pedal with a tone knob that works. Not expensive either.

  • @spark300c
    @spark300c 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    the value tube over dive is not easy one to get design wise. I tend to like class a amp transistor amp over dive. guitar amps my use class b transistor amps because they use less power.

  • @RedroomStudios
    @RedroomStudios 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I love how it looks like a cartoon character face or a robot! having that vintage style knob for the gain is cool too.

    • @ScienceofLoud
      @ScienceofLoud  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      My brother made a comment about it looking like a robot face too, but for some reason I just can't see it

    • @alexwright1464
      @alexwright1464 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      CSGuitars The volume/tone knobs are the eyes, the fat button is the nose, the metal bar in the middle is the mouth.

    • @pipmcsqueeza1017
      @pipmcsqueeza1017 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's not a vintage knob for gain, that's just what robot hats look like.

  • @MiguelMartinez-ro4io

      @21stCENTURYBOY12 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Oh look a guitar player sliding in his preferences when talking about something he hasn't looked at before nor has anything to do with the video ..

    • @ScienceofLoud
      @ScienceofLoud  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      daniel cullen Well, he did say he liked the tone.
      Wampler pedals are a good bit more expensive that the little Hotone jobs, so there's every reason for them to be superior, but we all know that gear doesn't always work that way.
      Maybe I'll be able to stretch up to a Wampler review at some time

    • @21stCENTURYBOY12
      @21stCENTURYBOY12 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      On the subject of wampler Colin I own the pinnacle duluxe , its a beastly pedal 😊 expensive though , had to deposit the pedal for awhile !!

    • @MiguelMartinez-ro4io
      @MiguelMartinez-ro4io 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Entirely irrelevant, but you would have hated the conversation my mother was trying to have with the people in Richer Sounds today.

  • @sid35gb
    @sid35gb 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice pedal but it’s too small if you’re a giging musician this will become a pita very quickly if you need to check or adjust settings quickly on a dark stage. But for bedroom use it will be fine.

  • @MustObeyTheRules
    @MustObeyTheRules 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    I don't know shit about setting up an amp or using effects so that's why I just stick to acoustic lol!

    • @RedroomStudios
      @RedroomStudios 10 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      there's not really much to know. you plug it in and turn it on and then fiddle with the knobs until you find a sound you like. it's not like you have to worry about blowing anything up... dont be so scared of trying new things.

    • @ScienceofLoud
      @ScienceofLoud  10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I haven't a clue what I'm doing either, but experimenting is a lot of fun.

    Picked up the Hotone Wally+ looper recently. Software does not work. Contacted customer service and what a joke. After waiting 5 days they sent ME a list of 14 questions to answer about customer satisfaction. Not a word about software failure. I will never buy another of their products....ever.

    • @ScienceofLoud
