the Guitar Pedal Thread

I think I'm gonna spring for a Russian Big Muff as soon as I find out how expensive my bicycle is going to be. I'm very excited: my distortion needs are currently filled by the gain knob on my vintage (solid state) Traynor TS-50 (gorgeous clean tone, luscious spring reverb tank built in, but absolute shite gain), and possibly the most disgusting distortion pedal I have ever heard: the Danelectro "Black Licorice" Beyond Metal pedal. This pedal is ridiculous. There is no gain or drive knob; the level of distortion stays the same all the time, and it's really crazy. There is a level knob, a bass knob, and an octave down switch, which is most definitely not polyphonic, and tends to cut in and out depending on what note you are playing. No matter where you stand in relation to you amp the pedal creates copious amounts of feedback which screech at ear-raping volumes. The one good quality is that it sounds awesome palm muted.

Does it at least clean up well when you roll off you guitar's volume?

No idea about your question. But what model Parker? (me = '06 Nitefly M. the M is for "Mmmmmm")

Dark red Fly Classic. Not sure what year it is, I'm the third member of my family to own it, so its pretty old. I love it for clean sounds but for most other things I like my new Tele with lace sensors.

I played one of these over the weekend, they're right about it being smoother than the American made ones. It was a little too smooth for my tastes. I'm going with a Little Big Muff if I ever get a Muff.
