WANT!
Tried one the past weekend. Very very warm sounding and definitely is a fine product.
If it had a master volume I'll be all over it....

Although I reeeeally want one I probably won't get one for the exact opposite reason.
I tend to need more clean headroom than i think this'll give. I've just started playing out again in a country/folky-ish type band so I need twang not crrrrrunch. Probs go for a SF Deluxe Reverb if I can find one I canm afford. A Princeton Reverb would probably do it too.

Did somebody say headroom?

• #233
ok i've been playing for ages, after a cheapish delay pedal any recommends? bit outta the loop interms of actual decent equipment.
-
• #234
Get a Watkins Copicat... Tape delay FTW!
Or just get a BOSS... -
• #235
yeah looking at a boss on the bay at the moment. my first choice years ago ...things dont really change that much.

You're just gonna have to work on the image a bit...

I just managed to pick one of these up on the cheaps. Don't laugh, beneath the admittedly quite horrible exterior, it is a sweet amp. I always thought he used a JTM45 (Bluesbreaker) which I used to have, but no, lead and bass 50 in similar basket weave cab (Oh why did they not do this in basket weave?!)

Rather you than me... Sure it sounds amazing tho'...

It will look better after it gets a few fag burns and spilt Guinness all over it ;)

I still like the Jim Dunlop Cry Baby - although a lot of people like the Vox wah.

I just ordered one of these - Tube Screamer clone which uses the same chip that the original 70's TS used - reviews are good and it's only £44 quid - gotta be worth a punt

Wow a guitar thread didn't know this was here.
Will get some pics of gear, to the guy with the matamp stuff - nice!
Im a hardened Gibson les paul player,
currently playing through an 18w handwired marshall 'clone' running vintage mullards- although, likening it to a marshall would be bad mouthing it - its twice as nice as anything marshall are still manufacturing.the marshall class 5 - hmmm, its quite a muffled and dead sounding amplifier to me, side by side it with the marshall 18w 1974x or the 2061x and you'll see what i mean, its just their new mass produced printed circuit board filled junk, imo. - along with the 'haze' series
theres so much nice handbuilt handwired boutique stuff out there at the moment the marshall range isnt even worth a look.

Yay more nerds!
Who was asking about dely/echo? I use a Dano echo pedal for a bit of slapback. Love it. Eats batteries though have to use a power supply which means I ofetn can't be arse to drag it to rehearsals.
I'm using a mad old WEM amp at the moment. I'm not sure what model it is but it's got a bunch of EL84s in there and whopping great 15" speaker. No reverb though so I have to use the Holy Grail for all my twangy needs.

I love pedals. Here's my "full" set up although I don't really use the noisy bits of it anymore. I'm all clean. Tele goes into:
Number one, most important, indispensible bit of kit that. Don't know what I'd do without it. As well as being mute switch, tuner and providing power to all the other pedals it also splits the signal, one side goes straight into a wee cranked amp (usually a champ) and the other side get mangled on it's way to the "main" amp by this lot, starting with:
That's set to clean-boost for either just that or to add woof to the following:
That's the meat and potatoes overdrive and very nice it is too. Then it's on to one of these:
Which I love so much I find it very hard to turn off at all. Then it's on to one of these:
For slappetyback. Then I top the whole mess off with a big wet dollop of:
Been trying various cheapo fuzzes lately but none have made it into the gig-bag just yet. So that's me.
Post yr pedals!

I've had both but eventually went off the effect entirely. So many naff dad-rock connotations and it's very hard not to overuse. I sold both of mine. FWIW i think the Crybaby has a wider range. The Vox has a very narrow window in which the effect errr, effects the sound, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. The Vox looks way cool as well.

I always found the Vox harder to control than a Cry Baby... Only ever used it to do Ron Asheton impersonations anyway... Looooong time ago now...
Anyone tried the Sola Sound Dipthoniser? Kinda sounds like a cross between a talk box and an auto-wah... Amazing box, mine needs to see the pedal doctor unfortunately... :9 -

Sweep (Min-Max) Controls how much the filter moves in response to the input signal.
Quality (Fuzz-Pure) Mixes the clean signal with Fuzz
Dipthong/Vowel Dipthong settings: YEH, BOW, WAH and AEE.
Vowels dialable are AH, OO, AH and EE
That sounds amazing.
Anyone selling any guitars?
Im after something twangy/fendery, my playing is a lot like luther perkins so would like a guitar that sounds similar, does not have to actually be a fender though. I am attracted to the Mustang though as it might suit my small hands. But I love maple fretboards, and they dont come on mustangs.
Im also after a smallish simple acoustic guitar. Like a baby-folk style.
I have a schecter C-1 (silver with Flloyd) sounds a lot like a Les Paul which Id like to sell. Cost £450, will sell for £350ono
