My girlfriend is dragging me to Guitar Center today. She wants to buy me a pedal but I really don’t want her spending that much on me, when she knows I wasn’t able to spend much on her this year. So I’m thinking something cheap-ish and EHX. LPB1 perhaps?

I’m just thinking outloud. Don’t ever take my word as something to actually be trusted lol. I just kind of say things.

I don’t see EHX being able to do this…something about a likely lawsuit I would think.

Ok I’ve got a few pics we can all laugh at. This first one is from my band’s very first gig when we were 15 or 16. I’m the dorky bass player with the short blue hair. God, I look terrible.

We went through about a million singers. Here’s the last show of that incarnation of the band

Now, the band broke up in our junior year of high school, until about November of our freshmen college years (Nov 2007 or so) We had some new much better tunes to play, found a great female singer (great singer, not necessarily great for our style though) This is that incarnation at our biggest show so far.

Now, the chick left the band around May 2008, due to school and whatnot. Not a real big loss. I happened upon this guy on craigslist around our area, our age and with a lot of the same influence. Not always the best singer, but he’s got energy charisma and he’s a great friend too. This was the last show we played before we all went back to college in August

Now we’re all back in town and I just gotta figure out what the hell we’re doing over our holiday

Now, I’m going to sound like I don’t like EHX in this post, but bear with me.

In my experience (I owned the Nano Clone for about 5 hours before returning it), the Nano Clone is not worth the money. Sure it’s small and has the same features as the Small Clone, but it is not any where near as good as the Small Clone.

Main gripes with the Nano Clone:
As stated in this post, horrendous noise problems no matter what. It isn’t as much of a chorus as it is a “suck my tone and add some hiss” pedal.
Center Positive power: A true pain in the ass when powering (can’t use a daisy chain)
Volume Drop (Where the hell did my guitar go?)
Low End Loss (A bass is no longer a bass)

Honestly, I would just get a Small Clone rather than try and fix the Nano. It really pains me to see EHX release a product with so many of what I would call, complete turn offs. For me, the Nano Clone was just terrible and is the only EHX pedal that I haven’t been able to like at a ll.

It’s a healthy addiction…. You will never be confronted by your friends for an intervention. Save a few bucks here and there and you’ll see. You will have a enough to purchase a seventh Muff. Plus, think about how much money we all spend on other things that really don’t make a spectrum splash in the audio pool…. Gothcha there.[/quote]

I actually have had a pedal intervention. “Mick you have a problem! Why do you need 3 ring mods?!”

I’m afraid of that too, although it would be nice to free up some space on my board. The big polychorus is just so strange and unknown around here, that it is just…cool to have. I don’t know if I’d go for the XO…I probably would just for space, and especially if the voltage is changed. Hell, I didn’t even go for the XO BMS
