Members burdizzos Posted February 14, 2007 Members Share Posted February 14, 2007 I just recently acquired a Boss GT-6B. It took me about an hour to figure out how to work the damned thing, but now that I've got it under control, I am in love. I have it parked next to my ART BCC and the difference is astounding. My wife didn't understand why I needed a new multi-FX unit when I already had one. So I asked why she needs a new purse every time the season changes. Then I explained that this one will replace all of my pedals if it works as advertised such that I will only need this on stage rather than what I'm currently using. I knew the modeling would sound good and I figures all of the standard effects would work brilliantly, my biggest concern was the octaver. I loves me some octave for thickening up the pudding and this thing delvers. Perfect tracking and a nice meaty tone. I was honestly surprised. My only bitch is that the tuner doesn't track the B particularly well. It works fine, but I guess I've been spoiled by the crazy fast tracking of my Guyatone MT-3. Not a big deal since I rarely need to tune more than once per rehearsal/show. Thanks RSB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife spends far more on handbags than I did on the GT-6B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members burdizzos Posted February 14, 2007 Author Members Share Posted February 14, 2007 O_O It's her money. She makes more than I do, so she can piss all of the money away that she wants to. It makes it easier for me to justify the dumb {censored} that I buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators isaac42 Posted February 15, 2007 Moderators Share Posted February 15, 2007 Is the Bass Synth the DigiTech XBW Bass Synth Wah? I've been thinking about an envelope follower, and the price seems fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mrmatt64 Posted February 15, 2007 Members Share Posted February 15, 2007 I just got one about 2 weeks ago. Used it live twice. Our sound man said it was the best sounding chorus and octaver he's ever heard. I've used the EBS Octaver in the past and it WAS the best, but the GT-6B is up there with it. I used to use an ME-50B about a year ago but it watered down my sound a bit.I sold my delay unit, tuner (all rack), my chorus pedal and EBS IQ pedal the same week I bought the GT-6B. Got the new Boss for $335.75 delivered, and sold my other stuff for $415, pretty good deal on my end, not to mention less crap to carry around!
