Guitar stuff continued…

Current signal path:

1) Guitar >>> George L cable >>> either my beloved eighties Japanese Fender Tele, or an eighties Bill Lawrence guitar – also Japanese.

ZVEX super-duper 2-in1, a sparkly-sounding full range dual booster which sounds great into Marshalls. it has a very high impedance input (5meg ohms) – so no tonal loss.

2) Zoom Hyperlead H-01 http://www.samsontech.com/products/productpage.cfm?prodID=160 – This is supposedly a true bypass pedal, however it doesn’t pass signal without power…go figure!

3) Electro Harmonix small stone phaser – I love this pedal even though it is far from transparent. It has that Van Halen I vibe on slow settings to it (you can hear what I am talking about at 1 min 4 sec here on Jamie’s Cryin’) , and it also nails that Band Of Gypsys Univibe sound when I set the knob at 12 o’clock.

4) TC Electronic Nova system. This is  a great compact digital multi FX unit with analog overdrive and distortion. The only deal-breaker is the way the  switches work… The FX engage after you press the switch! I found this out after I had bought it! Still decided to keep it. Sounds great, although it doesn’t have modulation delay)
