@@SethMorrisonMusic i was still a 16 year old kid hanging out with the band at their merch booth afterwards, squirting random people with a squirt gun! Sonshine Festival i think it was.
I literally just clicked the link to their website and bought one. Holy shiznits that's the best distortion pedal (or OD depending on your opinion) I've heard since the EVH 5150.
Got one, love it. Top-tier distortion pedal. I run it into a Line 6 Catalyst on a pristine clean preset I created. I have no idea how that compares to an actual Rectifier, but the tone slaps - especially with my SG, but it’ll do a great punk thing with a Strat too. Great demo, great pedal. Seth is a great dude too.
Video idea, how to explain to your wife/ partner that all these pedals actually do sound different. Oh and why I need this last one even though it’s never the last one.
2:47 - Leading off with the signature Fluff riff! 3:03 - Fluff riff refrain! 3:38 - Ab5 E5 Dd5 Eb5 madness! 4:28 - Oooh lietmotif, tricky tricky! 5:19 - Enough screwing around back to main riff 5:31 - New time sig, who dis? 5:45 - Tried to be sneaky this time 5:57 - Ope! Gotta be quicker next time 6:27 - Play it like you mean it (grim face) 6:39 - 290 BPM!!!
i expected just another 400$ pedal here, but its "just" @ 149$, that seems decent to me but there are a lot of amazing competitors out there right now! cheers 🙏🎸
I always saved up to get the amp that has the natural distortion tone I want. 90% of my pedals I do have are a boost or overdrive in nature. EQs goes a long way so I have graphic panoramic and rack all covered. I always just end up plugging straight in but it’s fun to experiment
It’d be interesting to see how many people actually run distortion pedals through the loop. I guess it would work if you only only needed one tone or a distorted lead and rhythm tone.
I use only my Poweramp by sending my board into the return and not into my front in. This way I have only my board sound made loud. But I am a bassist, a totally different beast... Might not be desirable for guitar
People do it all the time. Every guitarist experiments, and destroys tube amps because they're used to solid state and start it with no cabs plugged in or whatever. You can still hit the off switch lol. If it's true bypass, which everything should be now, it won't change your clean. Not sure what you mean...
Tried this today, worked really well and sounded real heavy. However it was insanely loud on the clean channel of my archon even with the pedal off. And I couldn’t get the volume to noon without massive amounts of feedback. I’ve been playing guitar for about a year and a half now, however pedals are still new to me. Any idea why this is happening / what I can do to get it silent? Amp: PRS archon 50 head Guitar : PRS 509 Wired the guitar into the pedal, pedal into the return. Sick video by the way, and thank you 🤘
Running into the FX return usually bypasses all knobs except master volume, and I think acts like the channel volume is max. Some amps have a separate volume for the FX loop, doesn't look like the Archon has this
