Made this one up yesterday. Man, I love that single coil grit you get with a pedal like this!:

I know I suck already... thanks Google for hammering it in!
What about the tone on the video? Anything that tickles your fancy, Rev Rawk?

Dont mind the ads Robert, I got the Guitar Hero 5 ad
Its a great sound and as usual perfect image and audio quality.
I can't say that I've given up on a flanger cause I've never liked the effect either. I also can't say the same about Tremolo. I hate them both equally. - Tone2TheBone 2009

Your playing, the tone, and the pedal are certainly fine examples of an overdriven single-coil sound. I have no issues with it.Originally Posted by Robert
The issue is with me. As I get older, I find myself feeling that the single coil sound is less and less appealing. I think I can blame Joe Bonamassa for it. When he switched to Les Pauls, I was skeptical. But now I even find it hard to listen to some of his earliest albums because the Strat tone sounds so thin in comparison. That doesn't mean that I can't enjoy the many and varied Strat players I admire. I never thought I'd come to that point since I'm such a big SRV fan, although his tone tends to be fatter than typical.
So basically, when I listen to your clips I tend to like the clean tones better than those with any grit. Once any decent amount of grit gets introduced, I find myself wishing for a humbucker. But again that is not casting aspersions on your playing or equipment. It's just my tastes, nothing more.

Sounds fantastic, as usual, Robert. Pretty nice little pedal. Almost sounds like dirt getting in the pull gain.
