Members Noise... Posted December 30, 2007 Members Share Posted December 30, 2007 Grab one of the Fender pedals right next to it. They're actually really, really good pedals. The chorus and flanger are analog as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members L6Sguy Posted December 30, 2007 Members Share Posted December 30, 2007 i'd think a real healthy dose of mids, after almost an entire decade without them, could be really good. was this a 3-knobber, or some vaguely different control layout a la fender's stuff?

It has two knobs and is in an MXR style housing. If it's anything like Washburn's "Lyon" Distortion, it's garbage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's anything like Washburn's "Lyon" Distortion, it's garbage. oh yeah, those ones. with all the target/etc lines being talked about recently, its tough to keep track. its also tough to understand how something as simple as a distortion pedal could be {censored}ed up; it is as simple as copying the tried and true, keeping the tb factor alone as improvement/justification. nobody dealing with this demographic should be trying to reinvent anything, rather just offering a disztortion+.

I could only get a decent sound out of my Tele with it................Gain at 0, Volume at 10, but the noise was too much...............humbuckers were awful, way way to much mids(not in a good way). I agree that mids are great for cutting through the mix, but these were harsh(am radio sounding) mids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very much get what you pay for. I put a mini-review with gut shots of the sister pedal the Washburn Blues Overdrive. Follow me here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NappyDugOut Posted December 30, 2007 Author Members Share Posted December 30, 2007 Was this an example of how sometimes you get what you pay for, or total operator error? I was hoping to get a "Secret Weapon" pedal, that when people hear it they would say "Wow! where can I buy one of those?" I would say "Target" with pride.....but I'm gonna take it back and get some toiletries and assorted sundries and a Red Bull:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
