Hi Pedalhead
According to the:
StarFleet Technical Manual,
Page 11058 subsection 3 paragraph 5
Connecting 3 or more Maxon AD-80's in a daisy chain, will create
an irreversible, cascading temporal field, with the usual,
time dilation & contraction, cyclic wave front. (ouch)
You have been warned!
Subsection 3 paragraph 6 states that:
This anomaly or phenomenon, does not occur with Boss compact pedals.
How Come more of you guys didn't know this?   
Regards Dr. Bob |

Ouch would be an understatement if you were wearing headphones when you switched on the amp One of these babies can be dangerous enough. It's interesting - with a signal going through so many pedals would it a) stay the same, b) rise to an intolerable distorted volume, c) diminish or even disappear due to all the signal loss through the links?
Your Star Trek comment made me think of Spock - He could build an AD-80 out of everyday items, maybe an old radio set. Mr T could build one out of an old tractor and some sheet metal (as long as there's an oxy-acetylene torch hidden in the barn). Who's that other guy, McGuyver? He'd only need a paperclip and some chewing gum
Sorry, I've gone extremely off topic... |

Hi guirat
Just staying off topic for another minute.
If you you were to get hit, by the Cyclic Wave Front.
it's all irrelevant a question.
And I loved all those old TV series, especially McGuyver - Richard Dean Anderson
Who was hit by that temporal cyclic wave fronts, & ended up in
StarGate SG-1 as:
Colonel/Brigadier General Jonathan J. "Jack" O'Neill
Lucky guy ended up with:
Amanda Tapping
Captain/Major/ Lt. Colonel Samantha Carter.
Sorry about the off topic guys.
Regards Dr. Bob

Ah, Ibanez pedals. The TS series is a law until itself (are they really that good?), but the other ones are good fun. Thinking back...
The Soundtank 60's Fuzz and the FZ7 tonelok Fuzz are great pedals - nasty, graunchy things that are lo-fi heaven.
The LF7 (the real lo-fi one) is quite good, but it's not quite as dramatic as you might think. Essentially you've got a sensitivity switch (guitar/drums/vocals), volume, distortion, low and high pass filters. The thing is; because they've pitched it as a multi-use pedal, the filter ranges aren't exactly right for guitar - I'd like to be able to really squeeze the sound, but there isn't quite enough range to do it.
The AW7 autowah is very good (almost as good as the Guyatone WR2, which is the best autowah I've ever heard).
Others I've had include a CS9 chorus, SM9 Super Metal, FC10 FatCat (really wish I hadn't sold that one  ) and an SS20, which was the first pedal I ever had. Lazerbeam distortion, a competely useless doubling delay, and a weird switch that gives you the clean signal as well as the distortion (?). I think it's responsible for my liking that Ibanez distortion sound, though.... there's a Sonic Distortion out there with my name on it!
