Blackstar Pedals...
« on: July 08, 2007, 01:39:45 PM »
Anyone heard these in action? The DS2 looks positively awesome, and a mate of mine that tested it said it's absolutely killer. I'm buying a GH50L next week and it'd be super handy as a second/third EQ for clean/boost/distortion work too! (I think the single channel shared EQ would annoy me a bit!)

Anyone got any inside info? :P

No inside info I'm afraid, but I did spend about 20 minutes listening to one being extensively tested out at the LGS, and it sounded excellent. I fancy one myself, but there's no prices available, which is bugging me.

there are sound samples for three pedals on the latest Guitarist CD

I have it at home ... sounds quite good indeed.

hm.. i think i tried one of those distortion pedals @ LGS. were they one the same stand as OxAmps? or am i mixing things up now.. no, not the same stand.
i remember it having a range pot, that made it sound like a pissed off marshall, all the way to an american type of distortion.
it was pretty good
