Killer stuff , anyone that doubt's Nick Bowcutts playing need's to listen to the Grim Reaper disc's and Nick wrote most of the band's material . Killer hot rod Marshall sound to me !
@4:33 Here I am with an Epiphone Les Paul loaded with very low output pickups - let's check out the BE Overdrive with the gain "All the way down"... wow, that's the overdrive all the way down??? Damn.
This is one of the few overdrive pedals I’d consider getting. Not that all the other ones are sh*t or anything but I just use the overdrive on my Marshall JVM HJS. BUT DAYUM!!!! This thing sounds sick! Totally gonna invest into one
does anyone know exactly what the difference is in this box and what the signature Cantrell amp does? i know the obvious fact that no pedal will change a crappy little amp into a $2,000 boutique but I am talking about the distortion levels. What is this pedal missing that you get with the signature Cantrell amp as far as gain,boost and that kind of stuff?
Hi, Jack! Thanks for your message, hope you're well and safe. In really broad strokes; amps are touch sensitive, pedals and modelers less so. There's also a spacial interaction between an amp and cabinet that doesn't happen in the same way with a pedal into an amp. There are minor differences in the tone stack, as well. From a sound perspective they can sound similar enough in a mix. It's more about the players experience. Please contact us direct with other questions as you have them!

Why in the hell did you play the pedal bypassed only to change guitars before you played the pedal again??? That defeated the purpose of the bypassed signal all together!
Hi, Malik. The plug at the top is the power supply, and is required to run this pedal. It does not have a 9v battery compartment. Thanks! Lindsey Becker, Sweetwater Sales Engineer, (800) 222-4700 ext. 1674, Lindsey_Becker@sweetwater.com
In my opinion, this pedal connected directly into the input sounds horrible. With none of my amplifiers (Bugera, Egnater, Blackstar, Hughes & Kettner, etc.) I could not produce a good sound. In my opinion, this pedal is much better suited as a preamp looped in the effects loop. Only in this way it sounds really good.
Of course you are using it incorrectly. It simulates an Amp the friedman be100, so even if you add the pedal to the clean chanel of your amp it would color and change completely the tone, in a very unlikely way. the correct way is to use a cab simulator pedal and use this pedal as an real amp not as an overdrive pedal. And you will get the tone of an Be100 friedman tube amp.
This guy's great! Not only that, but he's a fellow lefty player like myself(which is a dying breed). Also, there's nothing wrong with 40 y/o old rock. Most new rock music out there today can't hold a candle to the old music in any way shape or form.
