polemaster on order, pedalboard complete (for now)

[blendermassacre]

When my pole master comes from poland, my pedal board will be (for the millisecond) complete. since right before christmas I've gotten: fuzzeroicious walking delay, boss OC3, GFS pitchblack clone, the pole master, one spot and a pedal board from rondo. Not too bad for an effects noob, IMO.

Could you explain to me what you mean by "GFS pitchblack clone"?

 

[blendermassacre]

not an explicit clone but:http://store.guitarfetish.com/gfselditusif.html

close enough for me to call it.

 

[wdinc01]

Oh cool. How is it?

 

[blendermassacre]

not sure. The ups man hasnt brought it to me yet, but +- 1 cent and true bypass for 39.99 is a steal.

7 months back into playing I already have 7 boxes and I am not even going to start putting my board together until I have 10.

But congrats! sounds like a killer board, one noob to another =)

I am very interested in hearing how well this tuner works.

With that size, touted accuracy, and the 2 outputs it could really make waves in the tuner market.

I've been through a few pedals already (memory boy, polish hate) that I didn't like. OC-3 is a place holder for when I can convince my wife that I need a 200 dollar pedal (POG). I'm pretty happy with it.

I was excited that it went down to low a, more than anything. Obviously not the lowest ever, but pretty low for a 39.99 pedal tuner. I was always curious why the ibanez tuner that was that price didn't take off.

Is it true bypass? It doesn't say so on the page. I'm just curious, since I am a little interested in this too.

 

[blendermassacre]

If you go to the main pedals page, it says they're all true bypass

 

[Taylor Livingston]

Yep, just found that, thanks. Let us know what you think. Was thinking of building my own tuner but this is cheap enough that it may be worth it if it doesn't fall apart when you take it out of the box.

 

[blendermassacre]

Oh I will for sure. I was torn between the polemaster and getting a few of the effects pedals, but I figured for now, I would go with what I knew I wanted as apposed to buying something I was unsure of. The tube drive looks really interesting to me, but low end loss is obviously a worry.

Congrats on ordering the Polemaster. I hope you like it. Let me know.

Not trying to ruffle any feathers,...but I like to leave these little nuggets when the True Bypass admiration pops up.

i'm not really saying "oh look how awesome it is, it's true bypass" but just trying to keep the info as true as possible. I don't detect any tone suck at all.

 

[warwick.hoy]

Understood, and don't get me wrong,...there is nothing wrong with TBP. I just like to keep the TBP love in check with a small dose of reality.

The Op-amps clip in the related videos to the Visual Sound video I linked is also interesting.

mmm black casing, green LED. Sort of the opposite of the sub lime. I'm excited. Hopefully the pedal comes fast from poland.
