I believe that is the "Blend" knob. All the way off means no SA effect. "Presence" is more of a treble increase to my ears.

That is purdy. Good thing I am not buying parallel fret basses anymore.
I don't like to do geometry and shred at the same time.
Well, whoever said there was sexual tension, wow. There is a lot lol.
Hmmm. That is very intriguing. I'll have to go play a TH with one of my fuzzes and see how they interact, it is probably the most attractive option and a relatively easy flip if I don't like it. The only downside is no effects loop I guess. But then again I almost never use the effects loop.
I think this album gets overlooked when people talk about NoMeansNo, but goddamn if it isn't a great album.
You missed the epic one week marriage of Askrere and someone (Janitor? CL400? Hell, I can't remember.) who now has to give Askrere half of his gear and future income. A pretty high price to pay for hitting that a few times.
Ordered $135 shipped.
Hard decision, the swamp ash one seems more durable than this mahogany one but a strat pickups easier to upgrade than a P90. Also naked ash looked kind of weird in lap format.
Now to sell all my guitars and buy a squier mustang. For now I'll practice up and get myself used to the lap steel, then eventually GFS a lipstick pickup, 1meg pots, shielding and a wrap around tail piece.
Isn't it just a fancy mid-scoop? I guess if could work in tandem with some other effect, but it's certainly not my thing. I met a guy once who swore by his, but it was pretty obvious his "tone" was purchased, and not from actual knowledge of his rig.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I avoid those things like the plague.
I thought it was only "tension" if it wasn't released. Doesn't seem like the case around these parts....
It can get pretty scooped, yeah, but I think of it more as a presence knob. I have it set pretty mild, both knobs just a bit past noon.
The price we pay for taste and dip into a nice piece. C'est la vie.
I'm all about the release. Tension doesn't suit me so when it builds, a release will soon follow. Where or on whom makes no difference. Hell, I don't even care if they help with the clean up.
Man... I have cash and an svp cl just came up in the classifieds as well as a crest prolite 3.0... Basically what I originally wanted. Guy is asking a bit much in my opinion but those preamps are relatively rare. It's kind of ****ing on the Aggie idea, but man... It would be cool to save some money.
Yeah, there's more going on in the Sonic Maximizer than just a two band EQ. It can certainly be turned up too high and start to sound artificial, but used judiciously it can really sweeten just about any audio source.
