Sea Blue EQ

I recorded these last summer. Both are samples of "boost" from the SBEQ. One of the clips depicts pedal off/then on.

Today I would do these clips differently, ala Donner, by just playing and twiddling knobs to display range of tones as opposed to one sound.

In anycase, its a wee start and by golly its a BJF pedal...so WATCH!!:

thanks abunch Beck, and if you want to do another set , have at it, I dig your playing - maybe show how a drive pedal is nicely reshaped by the ceiling and how it still sounds like itself ~ just more enjoyable.....

Great playing Beckanon! Where did you record that? Make n' Music? I live right across the border from you in Dyer, IN.

18 volts Is it safe?

Hi, Anyone who knows if it?s possible to run the Sea Blue EQ on 18 volt? Mine puts the amp into a little little bit of distortion as soon it?s engaged. This only happens when I use humbucker pick-up, singlecoils is no problems. I know that when you dubble the voltage you get a little more headroom, but I don?t know if the pedal will burn.

Hi

I don't know the answer to your question, but I did copy & paste it into the "Ask BJ" forum on this site. I know BJ checks that forum whenever he has time.

Cheers,

Iuse my SBEQ at 18V with very favorable results. I leave it on all the time. It does add a touch more headroom and a tad more transpanrency and sparkle. I also run my PPF and EGDM at 18V.

I just had a relevation tonight with the SBEQ. I had on the EGD and RRB. The stack (RRB>EGD>SBEQ>) osunded like I had the tone knob on 0 on the neck pup. I then turn down the bass and turned the treble up a bit and there it was. I clicked off to see how the cleans worked a little brighter, so I put the bass up a nudge. Then I clicked on the EGDM...and there was the Mike Campbell tone. It's amazing how much a subtle change with the SBEQ can produce big results. I have to play more with the settings on that. With out the SBEQ I find things to sound a little flatter, but now that I've heard the difference in knob settings.

I was kind of on the fence about the SBEQ, but after tonight, I think I need more time with it.

I have been playing around a lot latley and have been able to utalize my SBEQ/PGC with almost every guitar and amp combo i have encountered and they are both very consistant...I use the SBEQ after my drives and before my modulation, this has helped a great deal becuase i can voice my sound perfectly before it hits my phaser and delays...it is a tone tool without a match! my friends always make fun of me and my BJF love saying I have a Bjorn glazed tone :D

I think a Sea BLue EQ is going to be in the future as well. To have that tone shaping tool after the dirt boxes seems to be a great interface no matter what sorts of amps you may have to use.
