After three takes, I finally manage to keep this thing under 10 minutes...to 9:53 seconds.

This is the other pedal I decided to put up here to show what it can do. Once again I use the Jaguar and the V-Amp with no effects and a flat EQ to show the pedal's tone changes and capabilities as much as possible, however, as with all distortion, an amplifier difference can drastically change the sound output. No other pedals were used in the signal chain.

  • What pickups on that jaguar?

    Is that mini humbucker for strat are you using?

  • @Parasiteque Actually, they are Seymour Duncan cool rails encased in cut-off Fender Jaguar pickup covers. The whole idea is to get around the same tone with some beefiness minus the hum. Jaguar pickups are typcally hotter than a strat (6.8K Ohms = Jaguar vs.6.4 Kohms = strat).

  • Haha, behold the power of marketing... This exact same pedal cost $139 and were marketed by Boss as "throwback", a lot of the people who say it sounds like shit would be licking its nuts for a "unique, crunchy, old school tone".

    Funny to watch marketers make consumers their bitches, but frustrating when a company produces a decent product for cheap, only to hear bullshit from idiots who don't know "good" from "bad", so they simply favor whatever costs more and put down whatever costs less.

  • @LandonInFlorida I agree. It's amazing how many of the same effect pedal circuits are re-used, or slightly modified, and then sold at a lower price only to get ragged on because the price is lower but not because the product is inferior.

  • hey every 1 is leaving comments on how this pedal is shit. they all say that it broke or it drains batteries. i use 1 and it works great on my les paul and gdec amp. the thing is, if u hav a crapy amp, it will sound like shit no matter what pedal u use. same with a guitar, if the guitar sux the effect will probably suck. and the only reason it drains battery is because people forget 2 unplug their cables. and if you cant afford batteries all the time buy an adaptor. not the pedal's fault guys.
