Re: Best pedal purchase of 2008?
Posted: Tue Jan 06, 2009 5:45 pm
I picked up some great pedals this year and have been reminded of that by my wife on several occasions. That said, the Model H is probably atop the list of the BJFE line-up although the SWAW is right up there obviously for different reasons. I've yet to A/B the SWAW with the VCF but will when possible.
However,the most versatile and hands down the best dollar for dollar value had to be the Fraternity. You can dial in a lot of tones with that little beast. Granted, you can get yourself into "knob tweaker pergatory" as well. So, based on Slim's recommendations and my ear, I've been trying to find a few good settings for various pickups and volume levels for my rig. If you haven't, I recommend you at least try one!
