Oh what a comparison, thanks! :D

I am not yet running certain battery brands on certain voltages for the right tone though, at least not quite yet :P

Post by: fr33man1 on March 18, 2011, 09:26:46 AM: Impressive as always ;) but I'd like to ear new material from that big rock/metal band you were in, if its still up and giging.

+1 - Always great to hear the clips you make when you buy a new piece of kit - have bought several items (e.g. EP boost etc) after listening to your clips/reviews

Ohha, I hope that is a good thing. Did you end up liking that EP booster?

Yes - I use it either to give a subtle lift/enhancement when playing relatively quietly or to give a lead boost on my single channel Cornford Hurricane. Really useful for a single control pedal.

Post by: asianaxeman on March 22, 2011, 05:23:56 PM: love that tone mate, that's exactly what these pickups were designed to produce!

Post by: Alex on March 24, 2011, 09:19:07 PM: I actually wish Bonamassa's guitar sound was that good. That first part with the VII was great!
