New pedal on the way - Bodyrez

[RVA]

Bodyrez piezo enhaning pickup. My Martin actually sounds pretty good, but I also have piezo pickups in 2 electrics, which could use some assistance in the authenticity department. Col M. gave this a good review and it is quite hard to find a bad one. It even comes with a power supply. It retails for $99, but with the Memorial Day sale, I got it for $89

Hmmm, I'm not doubting it's effectiveness, but it seems so counterintuitive.

You mean the mid-scoop and compression? I thought the same thing, but then I know nothing about acoustics!

Yeah, weird. But, if it sounds good then it is good...

Verdict in - sounds good, is good! At keast with my piezo-equipped PRS P22

Sound clip. There are 2 clips with the bare sound imediately followed by the Bodyrez enhanced sound in each clip (sorry about the clipping. I do not know how to mic an amp yet!)

Everyone loves a soundclip!

Nice playing, sounded pleasant. I'm not sure what I think of the pedal, it adds something musical, but also sounds processed which is a bit weird on an acoustic.

NIce rich tone and great playing Ray!

That was no acoustic. I was playing this

Oops, I am going deaf and senile in my old age...

(it must be lovely to have a wraparound bridge that you can actually intonate...)

You were not that far off. I was playing the piezo pickup only, which is really the same thing you are doing when you plug in an acoustic.

All PRS bridges are a pleasure

That sounds really good. With or without the Bodyrez engaged. But I do like what the Bodyrez adds, though. Sounds like a nice acoustic.

I have been using this pedal a lot for electric guitar. We all have an "amp in a box pedal" that gives you a different dirty tone. This gives a new clean tone that can be appreciated with any guitar. Well worth the $$

I dont have an "amp in a box pedal" --- I have a MESA
