CAF > G! I hadn't thought to try that. Need to give it a shot later tonight.

Thanks for taking the time to post the demos and for sharing! Like I tried to encourage years ago here, is for members to sonically document their experiences, because after a short while, the descriptions become limited and superfluous when not backed by some, sort of demo...thanks again ak47.

Thankyou for listening! :mrgreen:

Of course you are quite right.. Documentation is good in so many ways.. but it is what it is too.. Playback on a computer and a late night beforehand.. :laughing7

Not an ideal recording enviroment in these demos either (this pedal should push some cranked power tubes.. I bet it sings with Joeleos MP!) It is interesting to hear the effect my hand movements made between the cab and mic when I changed settings too :mrgreen:

Ultimately it is just my take on things with what I had available last tuesday.. Whatever.. I like this pedal a LOT!!

Hi,
I thought I´d share a recording I recently did using a Model G. Signal chain goes Tele w Bjf/Lundgren PU->Model G->Deep Blue Delay->MP OS21 run pretty clean. Settings on the G are V noon, C 9 o´clock, D noon and N 10 o´clock. I´ve gotta say thatthe Model G is awesome. So many different, inspiring sounds. It responds very well to pick attack and the guitars volume knob wich I really like.
I also gotta add that the Bjf tele PU are fantastic, very balanced and articulate, and the OS21 is the amp I´ve been looking for for a long time. It sits perfect in a band situation or in the studio and even at home as a real nice practise amp. I love how it responds and sings even at low volumes.
Here´s the track. Enjoy

I gather you were mic'ed....I would certainly imagine so for something that size as you mention....kudos to you on the gig and thanks for posting ...sounds very cool.

The Secrets are a rock band that is big on melodies and complex chord changes. They sounds like Queen at times, but with more Beatles-esque melodies generally. Playing their music was a lot of fun because it required lots of different sounds and types of playing- there was lots rock-out barre chording, lots of leads and a couple solos, some chimey clean melodies, and a couple places where we had the "wall of fuzz" thing going. The ensemble is guitar-guitar-keys-bass-drums-vox.

I used the G on more than half the songs, in various combinations with the other BJFE/Bearfoot pedals. When I was playing "guitarmonies" with the other guitarist, I had the CAF going into the G, which sounded really nice. For barre chords, I mixed it up: sometimes just the G, sometimes just the HB, sometimes either pedal being goosed by the PGC & BPB (LOVED these sounds), and then when I really wanted it to rock I stacked the HB into the G, which really is an incredible sound. The solos I took were usually PGC > BPB > HB > SBEQ.

In all cases I was primarily playing the bridge pickup on one of the Jazzmasters, (though I used the middle position on the humbucker jazzmaster a fair amount). The OS-21 was set up to be "clean-ish": the gain was at Noon and the master was cranked.

Here are a few pics I snapped during soundcheck and then during Eddie's set.

Hey, thanks for all the info... that all sounds great....yeah, that musical scenario is right up my alley influence and approach-wise...I'd get bored playing the same type of thing all night.

So cool to get the MG as it's first being offered, then use it straight away in a many varied format by itself and stacked, especially at a venue that size....fresh picked and "prepared" like the Amish :laughing7

Was your set recorded at all? That'd be great to hear in general, and bits of the G in action as well.

Yeah it was really cool to get the G and throw it right into the action! They gave us a dvd of the set. i haven't seen/heard it yet, but if the quality is ok and i can figure out a way to post something i will!

I am digging the G more and more for every day... Killer pedal :mrgreen:

Funnily enough I found an old baby blanket in the basement today.. Look familiar?
