    Ever wanted that "brown sound" from a pedal?

    Try this on for size...

    Why settle for something you have, if it's not as good as something you're out to get?

    So this guy whips through his own instrumental version of House Of Pain and throws the term "brown sound" out there as if it were in Webster's Dictionary without a single mention of the phrase coiner and brown sound extraordinaire, EVH?? I find that a touch sheisty.

        Very cool. I read somewhere that part of Ed's early album sound was partly due to Donn Landee using a plate reverb in the mix at the studio.
        No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!

          I have to assume the EVH law team would swoop down on this with the quickness if he mentioned Ed or VH..

                That pedal really sounds nice... very impressive unit. It really nails that early VH sound.

                  I've come late to this thread, that's amazing.

                  Worth getting just for times you don't want to carry a bunch of shit around.

                      Shouldn't be too much of a problem, given it's country of origin...

                        Jeez I assumed it was American!

                        A great pedal made in a socialist country, ELVIS is going to be very upset.

                        Thanks for the link, the UK distributor seems to have a pretty dodgy website but it's a starting point.

                        I should probably leave it until next month anyway as I've been going a bit crazy recently on the music spending...

                          A friend of mine lent me a Chinese made (Joyo?) over-drive pedal that wasn't a whole lot different from this one. Only $40. That's cuntsiderably less than whatever Frankenstriped pedal Ed has out. I wonder where EVH pedals are even made.

                              I've read quite a few negative reviews about this pedal...mostly about noise...

                              It seems the brown control is a phaser circuit and you can hear some phasing in the demos...

                              Another complaint is that the gain isn't really variable but more on or off...

                              There are plenty of good reviews though and the reverb gets high marks across the board...

                              I saw one went recently for $103 on eBay which is very reasonable...
