bad, stupid, funny and lame gear demos on the interwebs

Post by tabbycat »

generally horrible sounding kit, out-of-tune pedal demos, people who can't play demonstrating gear they can't use, equipment being dropped or falling over, people getting shocks off things, etc.

in short, anything you find that you think might amuse fellow ilf members that you think fits under the thread heading.

to kick off...

In addition to the pretty sub-par recording, if you look very closely, you might notice that all of these pedals have something in common:

The last 3 videos are fucking hilariously awesome! That guys with the guitar face literally made me laugh out loud. So funny.

Yeah, British Pedal Company can suck my balls but that's what a Shatterbox is supposed to sound like - heavily gated, generally awful :thumb:

they do have a rep for sounding bad-on-purpose but i think they may have overdone the awful, if it's possible to over-misbias.

as well as it sounding tangibly shit though, i also really like the way the reviewer doesn't have a demo idiom to go with a pedal that doesn't suit classic dreamy blues noodling. so he uses the dreamy blues noodling idiom anyway. and the more emphatic his dreamy blues faces become, the more prolapsey-worse the whole thing sounds. i like that mismatch between face and tone.

meanwhile, down in the basement...

The more demos the better I think, whether perceived good, bad, or ugly. I personally like out of tune demos because I only tune my guitar once every few weeks. So that is a more realistic setup for me.

I heard Marc Bolan used a Shatterbox. Anyone know which song(s)?
