@13RGaun I hear Guitar Emporium in Louisville has quite the selection...otherwise checkout Wilcutt's in LexVegas. There's also a killer place for pedals in Morehead, KY called HotRod's Guitar Shop - I'm from Paintsville, KY therefore I know the feeling...
Cool jam and great gear. I tried the Burris low watt heads at the Nashville amp show last weekend. Great units! Parallel effects loops with send and return level controls.
I also found out what a 100 watt full stack sounds like in a hotel room. Truly damaging!
@Fenderkid67 I guess it depends what your definition of color is. The atomic brain is basically a dual DYNO BRAIN, which is designed to push your amp into dirt or over the edge....GREAT PEDAL. The ABBY side of the ATOMIC, while adding a little more emphasis on the high end of the EQ, provides an overall increase...ala solo mode. The DYNO and ATOMIC were made to increase the ability of your amp to "hear" your guitar...not change it. If I am way off, maybe the Nocture folks can chime in on this.
@SingleCoilVoodoo - I have a TIM and one of these...Totally different animals. A TIM is an OD pedal, this is a preamp. You can dial the gain down on these Brain pedals to make them more transparent if that's what you're after too.
Great great playing man. Loved the sound here. Would you place this pedal at the beginning of a chain, or right before your delay and reverb for the effect in the video?
@rikinoki haha nice...or just ask people to search "The State of the Vintage Guitar Market", fast-forward to 1:35 and get it over with this whole Jack Black nonsense! :)
@KRomeroCustomPedals Thats where people like me make a killing. People have been hit twice now with downfalls and I am still balling. I have been buying anything and everything I can get my hands on for what I consider a deal which would generally make you puke on yourself. I got a 61' GIbson SG "THE REAL THING Les Paul" for..........should I even say it............$200..... Yeah thats right 200$, my buddy found a 1960 something GIbson ES 355 and he paid only $220 for it. You have to look.
lol why does everyone wnat to know "what" it does... its all about sound right? seems like when he kicks in the pedal everything sounds so much better. SO release your human element of perfection and allow your mind to listen without needing an explanation..........................
It acts as a pre-amp. Turning it on gives your signal a bit of a boost, so the tubes are pushed in the amp giving you a different tone without overdriving/ distorting it.
what's with the dying battery tone? it's either the guitar or the amp; adding fx only makes it worse...
