I went a little crazy with new pedals: Day 3

Day 3

Today’s theme is correcting past mistakes

PastFX Chorus Ensemble

I stupidly sold the one I had and I’ve regretted it ever since. I corrected that mistake. New one arrived along with a famous taste of Australia care package from Verlie.

It’s every bit as amazing as I remember. IMO this is the best chorus pedal available today.

The chorus has an amazing warmth and depth to it, the vibrato is beautiful and has a good range of speed, and you can crank it and overdrive the preamp for fun drive sounds.



UA Evermore

This is the one I just bought from the recommendation in the other thread and it’s great. It’s exactly the reverb sound I was looking for!

That chorus and really all the PastFX lineup are very enticing

Damn Sweetwater needs to be taking notes.

I see it as punishment for selling my last one. I think I need to eat the whole thing as an act of penance for that sin

I’m not familiar… and I have a feeling I don’t want to be

I didn’t even tell Verle!!

BTW- apparently she’s cooking up a H&K Rotosphere replacement! At the same time Dawner Prince just got a Yamaha RA-200 to make a 2nd edition PULSE pedal. Definitely anxious for those to pop up!

 

[metropolis_4]

Yup. And a $699 price tag, as I recall.


Just looks super fun and interesting. Price of admission is a tough ask for me, though.

How about the Benson stuff? You tried any of it, by chance?

Or the Hudson Broadcast?

Ouch, that’s a bit steep… but I suppose there’s also a lot packed in there.

I haven’t tried those two, but both have been on my list for a while now.

I’ve been super impressed with everything from them! There’s a vintage-y-ness to the sound that I really like, with a lot of excellent modern updates and options

Nice haul.

Free side of Diabetes with the purchase of any pedal in the month of March


I have that pedal on my board right now. Been there for an hot minute. So good!

If you take Vegemite and make it slightly less horrible, you end up with Marmite.

Chuck a teaspoon in a beef shin stew and it really makes a difference

Yes, yeast based seasonings can be a good addition to beef dishes, but they are horrible as a spread.

Tbh when I'm hungover I just eat it straight from the jar with a spoon

I just blew my Jan gig money on 12 new pedals

They’re all arriving at various times so thought I’d post in one thread as they come in.

Day 1 new arrivals:

OBNE Fault V2

This is the big story for me here. I’ve been using a NOTAKLON on my big board and I keep thinking “I wish I could dial in a little more low end with my Strat”, and “I wish I could toggle between two gain settings.

Enter the Fault. It seemed like it might be a good replacement that would give me those two things and so far it does not disappoint!

I hate Klons for standalone drive, I only like them to boost another drive (or amp) harder. So far the Fault has been excellent for this! I love having 3 band EQ and the extra boost from Gain 2 is just perfect. The only downside is how close those bottom knobs are to the footswitches… I’m a little worried about that in the heat or battle, but we’ll see.

OBNE Sunlight

I got this because in theory it seemed like a better fit than the Dark Star on my board. Sadly this was a bad choice. Like the Dark Star it’s amazing for big ambient pads, but it’s incapable of anything more subtle than that. I might keep it around to throw in the board for gigs that call for that sort of thing, but It’s probably going to go.

EHX Small Clone

This I got for nostalgia. I need a chorus on my small electric board so I thought I’d go with something fun. I had one of these on my main gigging board forever and this new one sounds just how I remember. For $60 it feels like a steal!

I was a huge Kurt fan back in the day, but I actually didn’t even know he used a Small Clone back when I got mine! It was just what I found at my local shop when I went to buy a chorus and I liked the look of it. Back then I had no idea what anyone used unless there was something about it in Guitar World, haha

Met do you require any help with the GAS
