Wow is that thing ugly. Looks like it is probably priced and speced to go head to head with the Digitech RP series. From my initial impressions of the Boss ME-20 I prefer the RP series ...

-- Clean Channel More smooth and round sounding (w/out the bright switch engaged) Entering Fender territory (w/ the bright switch engaged) -- Drive Channel Somewhat reminiscent of Marshall -- definitely not a Fender Blues Deluxe drive sound here (also, much tighter than my Traynor YCV20WR)...

I can second this. I played a VK 112 at the 14th St Guitar Center here in NYC last night and I darn near walked out of the store with one. The sales lady offered me a returned one for $380 out the door. I really had a rough time walking away from the deal because it would have been covered by...

You can find the MXR EQ on eBay for around $85 + shipping ... The MXR is hands down the best EQ pedal you can currently buy.

Everyone is allowed one mistake. Yours, staying on topic ... Don't let it happen again ... So anyway, I'm trying to plan a vacation. I was thinking of the Caribbean or maybe even somewhere in Europe. Any suggestions? ;)

I almost forgot ... I am also in the market for an Electro Harmonix Clone Theory ... And the guys over at the Gear Page seem to live and die by the Analog Man chorus pedals ...

I use a Maxon Vintage CS-550 ... Very very lush and definitely not digital sounding at all ...

My Music ... well mostly ... Thank God for radio, friend's older siblings, and carnival workers (who play the coolest music on all their death trap rides) otherwise I might not have known about half this stuff at such an early age ... :cool: - 1990 (11 yrs old) Guns N Roses, Metallica, R.E.M...

One word - Grunge ... Grunge taxonomy ... Nirvana - Punk Grunge Pearl Jam - Classic Rock Grunge Smashing Pumpkins - Prog Rock Grunge? Soundgarden - Psychedelic Hard Rock Grunge Alice in Chains - Hard Rock Grunge Stone Temple Pilots - Pop Rock Grunge??

Love me some paintball ... I was born and raised in FL, but I'm now living in NYC. Doesn't mean I can't have a "toy" or two. I just have to stick to stuff like this ... It's still illegal in NYC, but I transport it to the field with the barrel and bolt disassembled from the marker. That way...

Guitar Hero is the most addictive game I have ever played! ... but you really have to get a second guitar controller and play with friends to truly enjoy this game. Playing by yourself is fun for practice, but playing it with a group of friends is a blast!

And the really ironic thing is that Stevie Ray Vaughn is often quoted as not caring which Ibanez Tubescreamer model he was using as long as it was a Tubescreamer. Apparently he would just buy and use whatever the current model was at the time that he needed a new one. The 808 craze and the myth...

Guv'nor is great, but DS-1 is great too!! The Marshall Guv'nor Plus pedal is great ... when properly tweaked it can sound almost exactly like a Marshall amp and speaker stack. The DS-1 however sounds very different from the Guv'nor and IMHO would still add to your now growing collection of...

It all depends on the kind of sound you are looking for. The SD-1 and Bad Monkey are both great "overdrive" pedals. The Bad Monkey is the slightly more versatile of the two thanks to the high and low eq knobs instead of a general tone knob. The OS-2 is a very versatile "overdrive" and...

Reverend Rox!! My Personal favorites are the Reverend or the Ibanez, but any of those should work for you. IMO, try to stay away from larger hollow or semi-hollow bodied guitars for rock since they are prone to acoustic resonance and as a result uncontrollable feedback at loud volumes. ** My...
