  • can you use just the second channel or do you have to use the first channel with the second one?

  • @geetarplayer11

    Both channels are separate, not stackable. Check out the Barber Dual Discreet for more tweakability.

    Thanks!

  • Have you compared this to the Tim pedal ? Whats in your opinion are the differences ? Cheers !!!

  • @2020shredfest1980

    They can be dialed-in to sound similar. I like the Timmy as a clean boost and I like the 1/2 Gainer as an overdrive.

  • @roknfnrol Thanks for your reply man...I just sent the my payment for the Tim to Paul C. Should get it in a few days..Btw, I love the tone and playing here..Superb stuff..Cheers !!!

  • @2020shredfest1980

    Thanks. You'll love the Tim. Really great pedal.

  • How do you like the Half Gainer compared to other two channel overdrives such as the Wilson Dual Lotus II?

  • @soljaime

    The 1/2 Gainer is not quite like the Dual Lotus. The Dual Lotus would be similar to the Barber Dual Discrete pedal.

  • The revelation here isn't the Barber pedal, although it sounds wonderful, but rather the Dr. Z amp. What a beast!

  • @soljaime

    True, but this pedal allows the character of the amp to shine though!

  • I indeed very STRAT!

  • can it be used as boost on drive channel amp?

  • Hell yes.

  • does channel 2 give just more gain?

  • Both channels are the same. I set one for less gain and the other for more gain.

  • Are you using 18 volts? It sounds very good...

    I couldn't stand my LTD until I tried it at 18 volts.

    I ask because my perception is that the Half Gainer sounds much better, especially if your only running it at 9 volts. Thank you for the demo.

  • 9 volts, thanks.

  • Great sounding Les Paul... what pickups do you have in it? The guitar and amp sound great together and the Barber matches the setup really well. Nice!

  • The pickups are the stock Burstbuckers I think. They might be Skatterbrane Yinbranes. I swapped pickups around the time of this demo. Both are great pickups and surprisingly similar.

  • R2D2 Rocks!

  • Thanks for this demo.. I have a terrible gas for that pedal!

  • Fantastic job! Wish I had your chops! : )

  • Nice playing and nice sounding pedal!

  • Great job. Great pedal. Great playing. Thanks
