gawd aw-mikey... I can't believe I had to read through six pages of
repartee and flap-doodle, just to get to the two words I wanted to either
see, or NOT see: IT WORKS. I did read the initial thread on this pedal
with interest. So I believed already that it works, but wanted to see what
all our colleagues here might say, so I read this one with compound
interest. Bankers are just carnies in suits, IMHO.
I can't believe that one of us ordered a pedal, and the then generated six
pages of techno-babble before the thing arrived. It must have been shipped
by Amish Mail Service... clop clop clop...
If you went to yer local GC, wouldn't they have it in stock, and sell you the
correct power supply, so you could take it home and plug it in the same day?
If you ordered it from Sweetwater, wouldn't it arrive promptly, free shipping, no sales tax and everything included?
I can't believe that a doggone stomp box has to have a "cool and special" 7.5 V
power supply, as if we all weren't plagued by so many durn wall-warts anyway.
I can't believe anyone would sell this product without including its
"cool and special" power supply. But maybe the power supply contributes to
the humbug...
I actually think this pedal sounds like a good idea, and I do get some hum
issues with my Warmoth J-Bass, because the p'ups are wired to be one
big humbucker when both volume controls are dimed. But the hum increases
when I drop ONE of the volume knobs, as I like to do. IMHO dropping one
of the volume knobs reduces the hum bucking effect of the wiring.
I shielded the Warmoth when building it, but apparently I didn't shield it
as thoroughly as described in this long long thread.
I'd love to plug my bass into this pedal and get the silent treatment.
The pedal seems cheaper than a Von Herndon copper job, or a
real-doll job when you're bored with life.
But I might wait for the hum-debugger fugger version Two Point Six, where they
decided a nine volt pedal would sell better.
Now what I really want to know is:
how does one clean out his real doll the next morning...
Shower-massage? Garden hose? Car wash?
...does a clean-out mess with her hair styling?
or does one just leave one's DNA in there to fester?
The world wonders. What a world we live in...
