A Guitar And Gear Support Forum

I may have found my favorite OD pedal I just bought a Carl Martin Panama pedal today. Daym! This be nice! It has a definite Van Halen touch to it. Maybe it doesn't appear as anything extra special over video, but it really _feels_ awesome to play, because there's so much gain you feel like you don't have to dig into the strings to make it scream and wail - but nevertheless you can also just hack away at full chords and spank the plank and there's NO mush, NO lack of clarity or anything like that. Feels awesome to play!

I never usually play with this much gain, but now I can, without feeling that I'm sacrifying how I can hear separate strings there and so on. It just inspires to play, and I'm pretty sure I can also record great tones with it. For sound, it's not THAT different at all from my usual sound, it just has tons more gain, and still it feels more 'breathing' and if I don't notice that much difference swapping to my normal sound, it feels kinda like 'who dropped a blanket over my speaker??' it's much more fun with this.

No dumb question rule: is this you doing the demo?

Yeah that's me golem

Here...I played a little 'what if' game and removed my guitars from the first song off our new EP, Pariah's Game, and played over it, straight DI...left the guitar pretty loud so it can be heard well. It drops in perfectly. No need to adjust or mix at all basically, even EQ it further. Direct to record 　 Here's a video ( a few blunders and a squeal but wth). I certainly know how I', recording my guitars for the next release.
