I want this video on my WX395 phone.

And now I am the proud owner of the Blues Pro pedal. It works great with my hollow body, gives it the mid boost that it needs, without squaking all over the place.

I've got a Nobels OD-1 plus 10th anniversary and it's very smooth and natural. The best OD you can get for under $100

Some VERY nice riffing....with a nice tone. Q: to what extent is the Small Fry playing a role in your sound? thx.

hey i keep coming back and watching this video, very nice. could you maybe describe pros/cons of the small fry and the blues pro? i think i might get one of these as a more lead based pedal, which do you prefer?

Personally, I prefer the Small Fry. The Blues Pro is too far to the tubescreamer side of the spectrum. You don't really hear it on these clips so much, but it has a fair amount of midhump and some cut in the highs and lows. While the midhump is not as nasally or pronounced as a TS, it's still more than I care for, especially with bridge pickups...

Have to give a heart felt thanks to you for posting the video for the Nobel and the Small Fry. Several years ago I made contact with Dave Barber, (wont forget it, great guy) and now I am currently looking for a Robben Ford/Dumble sound.... The Small Fry has surfaced amoung all others including the famed Zendrive.. I remembered a dealer five miles from home that had a unsaleable ODR-1 .... mads a visit and bought it.... and next is a purchase of a Small Fry from Dave at Barber Electronics

You're welcome! I've heard countless great things about Mr Barber. He makes very fine pedals. I have a Tone Press and would recommend it highly as well as the Small Fry.... I might try to get my hands on an LTD SR next!

excellent demo, and awesome playing as well! Yeah!!!
I ordered a new ODR-1 as a result!
Can you tell me the vintage and color of your ODR-1? Apparently they aren't consistent in tone and ouput.
Also, if you leave it in the signal path while off, does it color the tone of the guitar?
Thanks!

I'm not sure how old my Nobels is, but it is one of the early green ones. It does indeed color the tone a bit. I use a loop-master and place the Nobels in one of the loops... Thanks for the kind words!
