Effects

Man there are a lot of effects………

So we got to start somewhere so howbout’ what they are and what they do.

                O.K. effects are usually pedals that modify the sound coming from your guitar. I know that’s very vague but that’s what they do. An effects pedal can entirely change and reshape your sound. Here are the four pedals I have a lot of and experience with and love to death. First my Russian big muff pi from electro harmonix it is the most mellow classic rock sounding distortion ever. This pedal is so smooth and creamy and sweet I would say its very “milky”, and it has a phat crunch to boot when you hop up the volume and sustain and pull back the tone. Next I got another electro harmonix the small stone which is a phase shifter that although has no tone shaping ability is by far one of my favorite pedals. It comes in and out of phase so smoothly. To explain the sound this phase shifter has sound a bit like your music is waves crashing on a beach and receding it is just beautiful. Next I got a true gem as pro as it gets a perfect wah it is a REAL MCCOY CUSTOM rmc 1 it is a top of the line wah mmm… its tasty. It has a really crispy natural wah sound made for a strat. It is crisp and clean and I just love it. It is very loud because it is made for lead soloing. It is also hot it is a very active that smoothens out the mids and punches out the highs and tightens the lows and cranks it up. Also this wah has a desired sweep that can be thick and creamy and high and piercing. With that perfect rang and sweep it is great. And last but not least my rc-20 phrase recorder it is fairly clean and does a good job. It has 10 different savable tracks so you can keep several of you jam tracks on this pedal so that is great and you can control track and instrument volumes separately so if you record to loud or to soft you can fix that up with the separate volumes.

That is really all I am comfortable with telling you because I do not have a lot of experience with any other effects.
