Who cares what Cindy Craw-daddy drinks? It didn't cure that thing growing on her face -which is ONLY cute until she gets wrinkles and her skin starts turning green and starts riding a broom instead of Richard Q**er...
I know GuitarWorld are a Corporate Ho, and as such are NOT going to mention any other brand during a review because let us face it; THEIR "reviews" are adverts. But this dude needs to at least tell us what KIND of amp he uses! As in -you know, is it class a, or ab. Is it single-ended. Master volume. 6L6, EL84 power tubes or other. Or solid state.
i've been looking into this, i bought EB because i thought if its good enough for the pros... I love everything about the EB's, the feel, the look, the size, construction.. but it was only till i did an AB test between it and the amp that i found this tone sucking. Actually with my TU-15 tuner (high impedance input) i only found slight tone sucking. Its the actual pedal! hopefully the visual sound buffer will help.
@ProdigyKimXP I have an Ernie ball and it sucks top end, which is why i looked at this one, as everyone raves about it. Its just too damn big. I'm hoping a buffer will do the trick!
@thinwire hmmm.... my ernie ball has served me well. I do hear a few have problems but I've loved mine so far. However, I don't use the tuner out. It sucks tone a little...
@BradSpead7 With only that many LEDs does that mean that there are only THAT many levels of volume? Or does the volume increase smoothly throughout the levels?
ok using a volume pedal-i want to have a nice clean sound, the sound u get playin on clean with the voulume not all the way up,but then say if i want to stomp on my distortion pedal, i need to turn the guitar volume up while i hurry and step on pedal and then hitt a powerchord, like playin enter sandman nice clean intro then distotion with volume blasting, would a volume pedal do that for me
A Volume Pedal could do that. Or you can set the level on your distortion pedal (assuming it has one) high, to get a higher out put. Or you could just get a booster like an MXR Micro-Amp.
yeh those volume swells are really cool, it's a lot easier doing it with your feet rather than the volume pot on the guitar itself, you could almost make the guitar sound like a violin when you swell the sound in and out
ok nice very "fun" but ill not buying it sorry but, it its very nice with the lights and allof that but its a volume pedal, i have a wah, and a wammy pedar for my stage performace and i dont use both at the same time so, wen i use the the wammy is my volume pedal and viceversa so, for me, its kind of a waist of money to be honest...
ahahaha u use a wah as a volume pedal??? oh man. thats just wrong. that means suffocating your tone of bass/treble ratio. thats just plain stupidity right there. do u have ears?
i hate this guy
