i know
the amp has gone back to fender today and should be back in about 2-3 weeks
i got loads of gigs coming up but lukcly still got my old amp
the effects loop on it seems to be AWFUL
cause when turning my delay on, it sounds so weak and rubbish
so think im ight just have to whack everyhtig up front until my amp gets back
i had several guitar techs look at it and many electronix experts and they said its far too sensitive to magentic fields and everything else like basically it has to be in anther house 4 miles away to be looped out and no hum
riducolous

there the correct uk ones but maybe sommin inside isnt right cause there buzzling and stuff
but theres no way to take them apart to have a look, no screws or anything
how will i get them apart ?
AshjaahsMuffParticipantQuote:Sorry if this has been posted before but after all that talk about it costing £135 or whatever Dolphin had that stupid pre-order price up as I thought i’d better set the record straight…. anyway as I suspected it was utter balls.….and I’m happy to report the UK price from Hotrox is just £65
http://www.hotroxuk.com/electro-harmonix-memory-boy-11619-0.html
(and in the interest of fairness, probably also available for the same/similar price from other UK retailers….other than dolphin!)
HOTROX is an awesome shop
i visit it regularly
they have some awesome stuff and there awesome people who work there toodolphin is utter rubbish lol
it took them over 4 months to deliever me a pedal when everyime i sposke to them they said it had been delieverd and they had it in stockDEFO Shop at hotrox
best place everAshjaahsMuffParticipantQuote:well as long as you’re getting enough juice from a 9v supply you should be good. Other thing is that you can get an adapter tip for other power supplies from 1spot. The Holy Grail requires a C35 adapter from them.cheers matey
ill see if anywhere local to me does these as im in the uk
thanks again !!!
AshjaahsMuffParticipantit takes a specific powr supply
the 9v dc 500mA one
its a smaller tip, like the male tip i think it is
not like the normal one tip thing
do you know what i mean ???thanks for your help
AshjaahsMuffParticipantThis Problem Has Now Been Sorted
AshjaahsMuffParticipantthnxs for the advice
ive looked into a few and are going to have a try in the next few days
ive looked at the guyatone st2, for a really small pedal it does a good job, (my board has about 3 cm of space left)
the soul preacher and thats it for nowthnxs !!!
AshjaahsMuffParticipanti have tried both and are fairly new to modulation n stuff and what not
i think they both sound awesome
but what id need it for for my soundid defo have to say i prefer the stereo electric mistress
for simply having both chorus n flange and being so simple to use and being good too !!!
this is defo gonna be the next ehx pedal i get !!!
AshjaahsMuffParticipanthave you got the deluxe or stereo one ??
ive tried both and i like the stereo one
only cause im new to modualtion and stuff but thought both sounded awesome !!!AshjaahsMuffParticipanthey hey
i have the english muff and im really impressed with iti tried mine with the settings in the pic you have an yh it sounds good
mine is currently set at
vol 11-2 (depending on whati m using it for)
gain 2 to full
high 10-12
mid 10-12
low 9i think its an awesome pedal
had a slight problem at the start when channeling it with my other pedals but thats because if i engaged the boss od3 it would sound very like i was underwater you know ? but i changed the signal path and some variations on my amp toomarshall avt150
clean setting was gain n vol at 12but i changed it to gain at 6-9 oclock and vol full, just change the master depending depending where im playing and now it sounds awesome
it still sounded awesome anywaysany looking ot buy this pedal
defo get it you will not be disapointed
just fiddle with the settings to find the perfect sound u want and ull be amazed at this pedal !!!AshjaahsMuffParticipanti also thought i should post on here what my signal chain is

AshjaahsMuffParticipanthey hey only me again
just a quickie
whats the thing with a compressor ?i watched pete stroud’s vid on it (the black finger) and thought it was pretty good, the first sound demo he does.
will i need a compressor in m unit of fx ?
i like the sound/tone i get atm but would a compressor enhance this ?also whats it techinacly for ?
anyone recommend pretty cheap ones ???thanks
AshjaahsMuffParticipanti didnt try the small clone, although tbh i was pretty impressed with the stereo electric mistress
i just need to go back now and try/get a few more bits n bobs like poss a holy grail reverb plus pedal !!!
cheers for the help/advice !!!
AshjaahsMuffParticipantthanks
yeh i went to a shop toda jsut to try them out and stuffi tried the deluxe electric mistress, the polychorus and the stereo Electric mistress
i trie the others out just so i could get some differnt versions and compare the sounds
and tbh i really liked the SEM, i thought it sounded a lot better than i thought it wouldim going back next week to try out the various Memory mans, some reverb and poss some other varied effects
