Drooling over NAMM toys...

vegas532 · Jan 17, 2008

I went today and have a stiffy over a couple of things. First off, I'm madly in love with the El Grande Bass Fuzz that Dunlop is releasing around June 1 and was diggin' the Way Huge stuff. But I really am lovin' the new Ashdown James Lomenzo Hyperdrive...this is the best overdrive I've ever personally played through. Too many toys to hit in one day, Godlyke's got all kinds of new shiz-nit, Foxx has a lot of new stuff...I'm hitting all four days and will post you on more coolness later.

I'm freakin' exhausted for now. :help:

I'm going tomorrow and cannot wait. I'll post pics of the coolest stuff here...

If anyone can sneak over to the godlyke booth and snap a picture of the new Chunk Systems synth :ninja:

it would make me very happy. I'd go myself but there's about 3,000 miles of land in my way :hmm:

:O ?

Went by Godlyke...no Chunk Systems Synth.

Saw no new Stuff at Electro Harmonix...will check again tomorrow.

Another butt kicker of note is the Sansamp VT Bass. It kinda like the Bass Driver (plus mid control) and the XXL in one stomp box. It's a very convincing tube amp simulator that goes from B-15 Fliptop to John Wetton and all points in between! I'm definitely picking up one of these for myself! :hyper:

I don't even know what that thing does, but I like it.

Also, that Sansamp VT Bass sounds interesting. I would like to hear more about that.

Ya isn't there also some other new sansamp pedal, like a "californian" or something? Anyone got info on that?

Hmmmm, now that does sound interesting. And it's small enough to squeeze in my board if I lose my tuner.

beggar98 · Jan 19, 2008

From what the EHX booth told me, its "like, the opposite of a compressor." Didn't sound too appealing to me, but I'm looking forward to some samples/reviews.

RickenBoogie · Jan 20, 2008

Ok, so if I have a comp up front, then this little dandy at the end, they cancel each other out and I waste 2 spaces on my board? Count me in.

It could be useful for somebody whose low strings on their bass sounded thin or weak. And it looks much cooler and tougher than just buying new strings or replacing the pickups.

I-Love-Ratm · Jan 20, 2008

There's a new Sansamp Programmable BDDI but I don't see what the new features are?Any one care to shed some light?

bongomania · Jan 20, 2008

It's got an effects loop. That's the only new feature I noticed.

BmoreTele · Jan 20, 2008

I saw pics of the new Tech 21 pedals on some forum - three different flavors - tweed, british, and california - just like the old Tri-OD or Tri-AC, except in three boxes instead of one. :hmm:

Other stuff that could be good -

MXR Carbon Copy Delay - 600 ms analog delay with modulation designed by Jeorge Tripps. Rumored price - $150. :hyper:

New synth pedal from Pigtronix.

MI Audio Pollyanna Octave, plus a new Para EQ and a delay.

Subdecay Prometheus Filter, EchoBox digital delay with modulation, Fembot noise modulation thingy.

Ampeg acrylic "see through" bass

PRS Baritone SE

TC Nova System, Nova Modulator, Nova Dynamics

The Ampeg Dan Armstrongs aren't new.

It has the same three footswitches for the programmed pre-amp settings, plus another that switches between an A/B input. The effects loop is also assignable to presets, or (I think) can be manually switched in/out with the A/B footswitch.

Pigtronix synth pedal? Mmmmm, now that's interesting. Love the EP-1.

This thread should get locked because theres way more pics and info in the other one.

Merging them would be much better.
