gg.2705 « For extreme saturation »
Published on 10/15/13 at 07:244 knobs control: "RIP", "guts", "bread" and "scream" corresponding to the bass / treble / mid / gain.
Powered by 9V battery or adapter jack on 1.5
(NB: this is definitely the FX 86 and FX 86B not that I do not know).
UTILIZATION
Easy setup, turn the knobs and we are looking ...
Many possibilities with this (the distortion contained in the ultra-distortion, through a fuzz with infinite sustain) to a still very aggressive and dirty with his shrill treble ...
I've read that the switch was fragile, I personally have never had to worry that side.
SOUND QUALITY
Cons:
- Alas unmanageable when pushing the amp volume (feedback and breath + +)
- Is not true bypass: generates a constant hiss when not activated
Pros:
- Many setting possibilities
- Very strong metal case
- Look fabulous in the genre!
OVERALL OPINION
It was my first effect pedal, bought used in 2000 for 250 francs memory is a little less than 40 € today.
At the time, it corresponded exactly to what I wanted (discovery of saturated sounds).
Gain often turned down because significant feedback ...
I recently sold because I was using more (too typical metal), however in its class, it remains interesting to discover.
