Title: Fuzz pedal, treble booster comparisons
Post by: Denim n Leather on December 27, 2008, 10:42:06 PM
I thought this might be helpful for someone looking into fuzz pedals or a good treble booster.

Here are 3 solos I tracked using different fuzz/treble booster pedals:

Roger Mayer Mongoose:

Good stuff!

Out of curiosity what made you look over your shoulder in the second vid (about 10 secs in). Looked like there was a moments worth of panic!

Forgot to say that the last clip was by far my most favourite. The sound of those Riff Raffs is sublime! What was the guitar?

Thanks, Ian ...

The look over my shoulder was me checking the time ... I did that clip in the morning and wanted to make sure I wasn't about to miss my bus to work! PDT_008

Last clip is my fave, too. Guitar is an Agile AL-2800.

3rd one is also best for me. Nice finish on the guitar as well
