B.DawsParticipant
Wow…I just wanted to throw it out there. I didn’t mean clones like it was taken, I guess I should have said psuedo copies maybe? I was just curious what other thought. Many of their effects are very cheap and what not but this line is better quality. I was also comparing them to EH pedals, not saying they are exact by any means.
B.DawsParticipantThanks for the info guys. He knows its a classic and loves its tone, but when its turned up it makes an insane amount of noise. I will probably do the true bypass and I might try the cap trick on the battery clip and also the batter plug is a glorious idea. The pedal really just sounds like it doesn’t have a good ground! Like I told him though, I don’t want to do irreversible mods due to the aura of this pedal
He also gave me an old Dunlop Crybaby Wah from the 70s or 80s I’m unsure but a friend of his took it off a famous musicians pedal rack while they were backstage (i’ll refrain from saying who for the legality of it). It’s cool too but picks up insane radio signals.
*a note about my cousin, he is in his 50s and has played guitar for 35+ years so he is a guru just not on the electronic/soldering side. I’m sure his path is pure. I will post some pics of the pedal this afternoon and let me know what you guys think.
B.DawsParticipantQuote:Quote:IMO First of all you should put the LPB-1 first in your chain to boost the pure signal (signal conditioners almost always go first in the chain).This is usually a good idea. But in this case I don’t think putting the booster up front will do anything but raising the volume. That Boss board is a buffered, digital COSM unit, whereas the LPB-1 is a simple one transistor gainstage. Can’t boost a byte into overdrive now can you ??
Lol true but I use it behind my modded Tubescreamer and it really enhances the effect or any other one in my chain for that matter. He is using solid state anyway so there is no way to boost it into overdrive right? Why would you use it after a distortion? What is the different effect created? Sorry if this is getting the thread off topic.
B.DawsParticipantIMO First of all you should put the LPB-1 first in your chain to boost the pure signal (signal conditioners almost always go first in the chain). Also the decay effect or loss is just the pedal over saturating an already boosted signal due to your other pedal I think. This is a common thing with some EHX effects. Also if you are at high volume having the LPB below 9 can weaken the signal, almost a quieting effect as the other guy described. I usually always keep my LPB at 10-11 and never go above 12. Also check your battery if you aren’t plugging it in
