    Default Cool Cat pedals - how cool is this!

    Man, this is interesting. Ok, I admit it, I am a pedal junkie, and when I see something like this, the drool starts'a comin'!

    Danelectro Cool Cat pedals

    True bypass, metal casing and a $49 price??

    I think my pedal family will grow substantially once these become available... :

    I still don't really dig those switches, but for that price I might be able to live with that.

    That vibe and tremolo are first on my list. :

    The clips doesnt work for me ...
    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

    I know, they aren't available yet. I hope they add them soon, I'm dying to hear what these babies sound like!

    sound bites will not play for me either.... looks as thou they may be an upgrade of the fab line and replace their current cool cat line that had a price point about $20>$30 higher than the new models...

    at that price I would be interested in the fuzz and a trem if the demos sound decent....

    They won't work for anyone of us, because the clips aren't there yet. I assume they will be adding them sooner or later, since they set up a link to them (the one that doesn't work).

    If these pedals sound as good as the typical Danelectro pedals, this could be a huge hit. The older pedals do suck some tone out of a rig, but with true bypass, even corksniffers might pick a few of these up.

    Well, I got so excited that I ordered 3 of these pedals today.

    The vibe, tremolo and fuzz.

    My friend runs a music store locally - he ordered them for me!

    The one pedal I'm missing in the line up is a delay.

    So what you are saying is once you get a delay you have no reason to buy anymore - uhhhh, I don't think so.

    If it is, the wife must be thrilled.

    No, no, I meant missing in the Cool Cat pedals line up. My own line up of pedals will be added to and reconfigured probably for the rest of my life... There will always be something missing... :

    ah that's better. The next thing we'd see you posting is that you purchased your last guitar. We'd have to come up there and get you out of the cold for awhile, although some of that Canadian air is sweeping into our area tonight. I guess we will have to all go visit those fretters in Florida.

    Cool! This could be a devastating blow to the boutique pedal makers...

    The vibe sounds like the Chicken Salad, which is really cool, but now we get it with true bypass.

    The clips that are up sounded pretty cool....the fuzz was really nice....the distortion sounded pretty good too....what I hate is they never give you the settings used on these things for the clips so you can attempt to recreate.

    I bet I can make them sound better once I get my hands on these. ... or not, I guess we'll see! Seems like the amp used on the clips didn't sound that good.

    The fuzz sounds interesting, albeit slightly fizzy. Can't really judge it through my old boombox speakers. I'd like to have a decent fuzz. I've wanted to try one of Behringer's 47 fuzz pedals, but haven't had the chance. The Big Muff model on my EX-7 is what I go to for fuzz now, but it doesn't really do the Hendrix/60s thing particularly well.
