Tech 21 Blonde Demo

I like it. I've used it. I'll probably keep on using it as long as our Front Of House guy digs it. The Californian is cool too.
I should add that you'll hear a little bit of reverb plate in the mix. This is courtesy of IK Multimedia's CSR Plate plug-in. The interface I used was an M-Audio ProFire 610. They're inexpensive but sound pretty good. :)

If you have a scout around my channel you'll find demos of the other Tech 21 Character Series pedals, with and without amps and other pedals.

Thanks for watching!

Why does Sadie sound English in this vid?

@kanirip She's having fun with putting on accents, as kids do.

This sounds like a very versatile effects pedal. You coaxed some very usable sounds from it. I do not hear any hum or other noise either. I'm torn between the OCD and the Blonde, Tough decision for me. I use a Tele, Les Paul and Strat. Does the Blonde work well with all? Thanks to you and the little blonde for the great demo videos.

[Burgerman666]

@spyguys Yep, the Blonde is the #1 Character Series for me because it is just that - super versatile.

Will this sound good with humbucker guitars??

[Burgerman666]

@whiterex1 Just as good as with single coils. Maybe even better. :)

This pedal has rendered my Dr Z Maz 18 virtually useless. I love my Maz but, as with any gigging band, volume is an issue. With the Blonde I get incredible tone with an amazing amount of volume control. My band now has the lowest stage volume around AND the best in-house mix. I get more compliments on my tone now than when I was using an actual amp. Probably because everything is heard properly and sits where it should. Now my board is a self contained tone center. I highly recommend this.

For me it would be interesting, how this pedal reacts with other pedals before it... so i think about plugging my Effectboard before the Blonde, then go right into my Audiointerface for recording.

Would you recommend that?

Thank you for the great reviews! :)

Thanks for a great review. just bought one of these for using at small club gigs, but do you think they can go straight into the PA or do they need to go through a DI box?

[elinfoot]

how would you rate this next to the blackstar ht dual pedal? I'm trying to decide which one to get.I have a single channel amp that just has a clean channel

This is 11 months later, but I'll answer you anyway. I have a Tech 21 Blonde and yes it sounds great for bass!

How does this pedal react to pick attack/volume knob changes?

[10CentHead]

I'm stoked! Mine is currently on route, and will soon find it's home in my pedal board. I'm probably going to pick up a Liverpool as well (since I have the Brian May switching system on one of my guitars).
