I grabbed it on clearance years ago. I seriously doubt they have any more left.

Just turn the fuzz up and hold notes for long periods of time.

You could tour playing drone/doom.

Screw the pedal. Practice your *ss off or start playing cowbell.

what happens if you turn the talent, chops, and tone all the way up but turn the ego all the way down? Does the pedal explode?


pedals are nice but the easiest, cheapest, and quickest way to sound better is to be nice to the sound guy!

That boss Talent Simulator pedal is sick. I have it permanently fixed to the inside of my rack running through the effects loop on my amp. It's an always-on kinda thing, and definitely an important part of my rig.

I also wanna do a Blend knob mod so I can blend in a little bit of my Raw Enthusiasm, just a bit. Are they true bypass, I was told that's not good on a Talent pedal. I guess I could leave it always on.

Do any of these talent boosters have a "Hot Licks" momentary boost control, preferably by expression pedal? I need this for between songs.

The Boss is not true bypass, it is designed to be an always on pedal. In fact, the switch is just there but doesn't actually switch anything off or on. It is there to step on randomly to give the appearance of using your effects board. I believe there is a "raw enthusiasm" pot inside that you can adjust the level to blend with the "genuine modesty" knob.

As I recall, there's an internal trim pot for the Modesty control, allows you to increase arrogance as your talent increases

you can always try binge drinking before a show if you want to bypass your talent.
