Hi!
I was just browsing the interweb, and came across this pedal.
admittedly it is the coloured knobs that attracted me to it first, but, at least on guitar(I have not heard any bass clips), it seems to sound quite good.

Has anyone here tried this pedal and would be able to comment?

Thanks!
 
Wow, just checked out the Henretta website. Lot's of cool fx there. Choad blaster probably has to be one of the best names ever for a pedal, but besides your post, I never heard it or of it.

Hence my interest; I too had never heard of it until just before posting here on it.
 
@cnltb seems like more knobs than your usual tastes :)

Found this demo, not a great demo really, I'm sure the pedal is better than that.



Non bass, but, better demo:

Well done!
Thank you!!
Yes...it has more knobs than what I'd usually be after, but as long as every one of them has a useful function, I don't mind so much ;).

This thing seems to sound real good. No?...

a little late... but wanted to reply nonetheless. i have the Choad Blaster in a Henretta multi-effect unit and i LOVE it. more controls than other fuzz, OD and distortion pedals... but the controls on the Choad make perfect sense. i wouldn't want this unit hooked up any other way.

note -- the Henretta Emerald Prince is not to be missed! it's similar to the preamp section from an Echoplex EP-3. it's one of those effects that simply makes everything nicer and better.

and Kevin Henretta is fantastic to work with. he's an incredibly skilled and classy guy.
