Syzigy « Ptite an oversized pedal »
Published on 06/11/11 at 15:33- Foot boost, up to 20db (if I remember correctly). Made in the States (again if I Reconta no bullshit).
- 9v or 18v power supply, battery or mains.
- Inside are two small switches, the first to add bright and the second to boost the bass.
- One knob used to adjust the volume and stompswitch to initiate the beast.
- In short a simple config, very intuitive and efficient.
UTILIZATION
- Ben to the level of use is easy on the guitar part, adjusting the volume and go. The manual is helpful in the sense that we would not find in the heart of the beast to see if there would be no one or two different settings, so good to know also it explains the action of these two switches.
- If nothing complicated.
SOUND QUALITY
- So is the sound quality is really excellent. At first I was looking for a pedal that can give me more gain, grain, punch without altering the basic sound, I wanted something that pushes the sound of the guitar and amp without coloring the sound. My dealer told me to try it before I throw on countless pedal overdrive or distortion. And there was I took a slap.
- At first I found this super useful pedal for solos, just to spend a little above in the mix, but then I realized she could do more than her. On a tube amp it's really useful on a clear twist to the amp nice shot of a good definition is kept clear, but with the dirty side. This time also used this pedal in rhythm, playing with the volume of the guitar with a pick and attacks you get something different and very interesting.
- To the sound depending on how the two are set to bright or then swtich the bass boost, or both off, you get what the manual describes, more bass, more treble, or you sound even more vintage (like Led Zep). The pedal itself does not add that volume, it "bigger" sound, it seems that everything becomes more dense, more sturdy, but without altering the guitar and amp, it is his strong.
- In any case this is not for playing the Vai or Satriani, but if you like the sound a little dirty as Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Buddy Guy, ... This pedal may interest you.
OVERALL OPINION
- It is now 7-8 months I use a Mesa TA-15, and at the panel's nothing with this amp I can not complain, but after trying this pedal, I do not even conceive of not using it with.
- I did not try other kinds of pedals before buying, this one over on me, and I personally think any overdrive or distortion would have conquered time.
- If it interests you can find videos on the site who are very demonstrative Xotic. The fact that the likes of Joe Bonamassa (among others) use this pedal, it already shows the seriousness of the product.
- on the other hand for the price, well it's really not give the same to say that 90-100 euros, it would still be better. (My opinion is that some importers are paying their 14th month on our backs, but hey what to do??)
- A re-operates again I head down, and if I can say anything, it tried it, its worth the trip.
