[AntaresSI]

Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooooW ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

[DarthG0m3zzz]

Nice review!! Do you favour digital delays over analogs?

[BjornRiis]

@DarthG0m3zzz

Thanks! Depends on what tones you want. Analog are great for classic tones and ambience, while digital is a must when you want more accurate time settings.

[1982telecaster]

good work boy, the sound is so similar to the original...

[1982telecaster]

complimenti... il suono è moooolto simile all'originale...

[juniorf87]

The Laney Cub12, and really good?, I can unistall with clean overdrive pedal?, I must buy it soon, I can say that he is versatile.

Do you play in a Pink Floyd tribute band? If not why not? You should because you sound great and the band would be fantastic. Keep on ROCKING:-)

[fatapf]

the closest thing to the MAN himself that I've ever heard, 2 thumbs up, 10 stars!

[urassteppenwolf]

One question, what are you using for playing along the original record for reducing the volume of David´s guitar?

Thanks. Juan Antonio. (Germany).

[BjornRiis]

@urassteppenwolf

In this clip? I'm mic'ing the speaker cabinet with a Shure SM57 and recording into Logic. I'm listening to the backingtracking in headphones while I'm recording and syncing the track with the iMovie project later on.

[mysoresriram]

@BjornRiis Nice Telecaster =) Really like the Have a Cigar solo! You really nailed

it! and thanks for the nice things you did for me!

[3abedthedude]

I keep playing the Video over and over again

you are Great

[urassteppenwolf]

Wow, I didn´t know it is possible to make so great stuff using 10 frets.

Always great!.

Thanks Bjorn.

[orison319]

sweet.. needs a little more top..

[TheEricthekid]

you sound really awesome! to recall the song of the disc 75 ...

[petedechop]

Unbelievable playing, Bjørn. I'm totally stunned here. Kjetil

[BjornRiis]

@petedechop

Thanks!

[synklavier]

Great sound ... Great solo ... Wonderful cover !

[robinlinux]

Fantastic... Good work bjorn ;)

[floydfan831]

Damn, that thing is amazing. How much do I have to drop to get my hands one one?

[Thomas1190]

Nice Bjorn! Im really digging this pedal and the musket fuzz. Im going to have to pick both of these up as well as the Laney cub. Now i just need to find some money lol. Sounds Awesome!

[Dejital]

Great, I like how smooth it is.

[oddball009]

@BjornRiis thanks. Will try this one



[luki01111]

that's a great solo. great tone.

[itzikc33]

where do you put your compressor? before or after the overdrive pedal?

thanks

[BjornRiis]

@itzikc33

Before.

[Fretlessjay]

@BjornRiis i thought you put it after the OD? or i might just be confuseing myself. I have mine as : Guitar->CS-2->RAT2->TS9->BD-2, ect.

[Fretlessjay]

@BjornRiis I thought you put the compressor after the OD? i may be confuseing myself. mine is setup like this:Guitar->CS-2-.RAT2->TS9->­BD-2. oh and how much dose the ThroBak go for? just in case i dont check the review on the site before i go to bed.

[BjornRiis]

@Fretlessjay

A compressor is usually set in front of all gain pedals.

[gez2007]

It's got a nice smooth sound to it. Not too harsh but not muddy either

[BjornRiis]

@gez2007

Indeed and much warmer than the Colorsound Power Boost too. It's also capable of a very nice clean boost as well.

[oddball009]

Great Solo! Going to have to get one of those pedals now. Which do you prefer? This one, Absolute analog fist, or the top tone light drive?

[BjornRiis]

@oddball009

This one for sure! The Fist has a bit more dirt but doesn't work that well as a clean booster. The Light Drive is between the Colorsound and SS2 tonewise. An OK pedal but nothing special. The ThroBak is the best Colorsound clone on the market IMO.
