This friday I will record clips!
So last Friday was the first gig with the new amph, the Vox Wah and the OCD pedal that only arrived on that friday. Came home from work and had no chance to check the OCD. No risk no fun. I brought it with me to the gig and left the TS9 at home. It took me two minutes to reach tone heaven. The guitarist of the other band played a very expensive set up and I thought he sounded like Robben Ford, but he came to me and said he can't believe the sound of my set up. I offered him to play the gig through my amp. I set everything about 12 o' clock on the OCD, put it on HP mode which is more distortion and from there I only regulated all sounds with my volume poti. I can not believe how dynamic the OCD sounds. You go from totally clean to transparent crunch to creamy leads. The pedal sounds like an amp itself and I must admit, it is the best investment I have ever done in a pedal. The JTM45 is a loud monster so the mixer had some issues with my stage level. I ended with volume on 4 and I was soooooo happy that I bought this amph. I don't know what kept me away from this set up so many years and what made me buy other stuff. By the way, the Vox Wah sounds totally awesome, modded or not, this is what I understand under the perfect wah smack sound.
There were six persons after the gig that asked me about the stuff I play...wow, I am totally overwhelmed and I hope you don't take my review as pure showing off, it's just that I never ever felt so confident with my sound.
