Fuck yeah. I sold my old one when I was offloading a lot of my gear and I have missed it terribly.

That's exactly the goal :rawk:

I also picked up the joyo LS2 clone to play around with blended dirt/boosts.

I think it has the right character to be blended as a preamp in parallel with the chug. I can make it a all tits and ass to get the chugs to really pop :lol: I'm eventually going to pick up a kartakou colossus and this whole solid state part will run in parallel/stereo with that into a Palmer macht.

I recently fixed up my old xp100 whammy pedal I bought in like 1997 so I'll be throwing that on the mix, too but not on the usual way. It works really great with a 5th up harmony for impossibly quick power chords, and the 4th down pitch shift tracks incredibly well to say I'm in A standard, which gets me down to E for thou single string riffage :lol:

Hell yeah, love my Metalzone. The EQ controls are twitchy sensitive with some amps, but the sculpting you can do up-front just makes it so easy to get a great gut-punch tone. Of course, it's also easy to dial in an ear-shredding mess of a tone, so it's a tricky one, but I still love it.

This and and SD-1 together can sometimes create magic too. I used them in conjunction on the bass the other day and it was like wall of deep fuzz slammin' into the chest. So much fun.

:eek:

Gorgeous, but those inlays make me think somebody's stirring coffee on the fretboard.

That neck joint is wild. Seems like a tremendous amount of work.
