Hey look, I stopped being lazy and uploaded one of the videos. I gotta get my iPad out to upload the other one now. I think this one is just messing around with the RR.

Finally got a chance to mess around with these! Damn work and school have prevented it!!!! SO ANNOYING!!!!!!!


So I was recording a demo. Played for like 20 mins. Looked down at the camcorder and it had a message that said it stopped expectantly. Son of a bitch! I might have to resort to using my IPAD. Hope not though.

Anyway. Initial reactions. Most of these pedals don't seem to like my active pickups. They sound good, don't get me wrong, but sound better passive.

The Barbershop OD-Great low gain OD. Almost like a boost, but with just a bit of grit. I really dug this pedal. I like how subtle it was.
Four Eyes-Holy shit balls this thing is crazy! Every time I'd turn a knob or flip a switch, I'd get a different sound. One complaint is it seems to cut low end. Other than that, amazing.
Randy's Revenge-I HATE ring mods. Absolutely hate them. This one was fun to play with though. It goes from whacked out nuttiness, to a almost tremolo type sound. I dig it.
Unpleasant Surprise-This was my favorite pedal of the lot. Gnarly, fizzy, destruction type gated fuzz. I loved almost all the settings, has nice low end retention. The only thing I didn't like was it is almost too gated on certain settings. You can mess around with it though and get some pretty cool stuff.

The Looper. Works good. Nice feedback with the knob all the way up. Going to have to mess around with it more.

So all in all, good stuff! Nice quality, cool rustic look, great sounds. I liked them all!

So just played around some more with my Jackson passive. SO MUCH AWESOME!!!!!!

The pickups make a huge difference. The Looper even works better with the passive electronics. Weird.

Hey guys! I'm just today getting this thing in the mail. The holidays screwed shit up for me. I apologize for that. Here's a demo I did though of the pedals. I really appreciate the opportunity to play around with these guys! I know I'm GASING hard to own all of these now!


I accidentally did two intros. LOL! My bad.

the box just arrived here in the Chicago area. thank you for hooking me up! i'm going to try and do an audio demo or nine; i particularly want to explore the tremolo functions on the RR, which seldom get in-depth workouts in demos.

I think you'll love the tremolo on the RR. I've got the original RR and the tremolo is fabulous sounding. Can't wait to try out all the others :drool:
