Lovepedal 200lbs of Tone

Damn, how did you get it before me!?!?

Must be quick shipping to Boston.

 

Is this a fuzz/distortion along the lines of the Dragon and BBBs? I lost track of what this one does.

Power tap?

 

Aw man, I don't wanna wait for mine! Give us a full report.

...ignore that is says tchula in the url.

 

hmmm ... i wonder if it arrived at my apartment in boston ...

 

Wow! What a great pic!!

Congrats!

 

Didn't Sean say that the this pedal was not the tchula?

 

Yes, he did. But he's using the same URL page that the tchula was on.

 

Hello Rick,
so have you had a chance to demo it yet? does it clean up on the guitar volume knob much? can't wait to get some feedback on the pedal. THanks

just checked my tracking number ... it arrived at DHL in boston ... but no delivery ... probably tomorrow

 

Nice pic! That tele is the meat and potatoes. CS ? rusted screws. I like. Oh, the pedal is pretty cool lookin too.

 

Yes, that's why my post says, "ignore that is says Tchula in the url."

 

Got mine today too!

This is a fuzz I can actually use! The controls work great and you can vary the tone/fuzz/gain to achieve many different tones.

The violin sound is there in spades. Vinetto-->200lb-->Naylor or Mad Professor! I also tried a BFJ Red Rooster after it and that combination just kills.

You guys are gonna love this one!

 

Well, it actually did arrive in town, and since I'm impatient and have nothing to do tonight, I'll be heading to my DHL facility in an hour or so.

Can't wait to check it out.

 

Well?

 

I'd love to hear some clips from folks on here, particularly that move through different settings on the pedal... and include an idea of what the gear sounds like without the pedal.

I'm shopping for a fuzz.

 

Gotcha, I took it that you thought they were the same. There was quite a bit of that on a previous thread.

 

If I owned one, I'd make you some clips. I do, however, work with Sean and helped with the r&d on this pedal, lending my ears and playing it. I did nothing with the circuit design--that's Sean's field of expertise. I just used my ears and made a couple suggestions, which he was really on top of already. It is like a BBB but uses silicon transistors--which are not so prone to changes in temperature.

I am not a huge fuzz guy, but I found at least five different settings that were useable in this one. It definitely cleans up very well when you back off your guitar volume to about 8. You have an incredible fuzz, rangemaster and a blend between the two. With adjustments to intensity, you can go more into an overdrive territory or go all out Jimi.

I found myself playing and experimenting with different settings and spent a good 30 minutes, enjoying everything I discovered. Its a real cool pedal. My biased 2 cents.
