«  The real "TIP" (the real mc coy) »

Published on 01/28/13 at 03:40
-The GCB-95 is the standart model of "cry baby" by DUNLOP, has since released quite a wide range of wah more qualified (frequency management, fuzz integrated optical trigger etc ...).
-Not complex connectivity, input and output jack 6.35 "and a socket for transformer I think (I do not use the plug transformer ...).
Note, greedy little pile.

So a standard techno. analog 60s.

UTILIZATION

As I said, it's simple, it's up to you to make the sound, which is within the reach of all, it is enough to know how the foot.

SOUND QUALITY

-The grain is really a great "classic", heard on numerous recordings, that for decades this is pasablement "kitch" WOW WOW that is like a duck in a panic, which can emulate the sound of a rape (intro of "shaft") or that of a malnourished infant, hence its name.
-It is an instrument in itself, everyone has his own signature temporary lead with this type of gear, which is pretty cool is not it?.
-I played for 15 years, reliable, careful to dust off the store (with the fat, we get a wig yucky quickly; under the scooter.) And grease the rack device from time to time under penalty of have various couiements and screeching.
-The difference between the open (acute) and closed (low) is enough of a perspective problem no audio frequencies in revenache mechanically, the angle is a little weak forcing to play with more delicacy as one example VOX.
The grain-General is "fine" with a twang finally, the pedal can sound shrill (but not only far from it), which is part of the "trick" on the bridge pickup of the strat for example, "c is so beautiful treble perforate any mix, "I think the utlisation Hendrix has made some of these soli" acute-on "on the micro precisely.
-Pedal "color" your sound in the sense that your microphone does sound more like when the wah is off, even treble position wide open.

OVERALL OPINION

-We know what we purchased a pedal without the sixties "TRUE BYPASS" or "BUFFER", which colors the sound off or on as soon as one place in the chain, amaingri lightly by a strat example, in exchange for or because of very beautiful WAH WAH. Place a big muff fuzz face or front and you will enter into the kingdom Hendrix.
-I compared to the VOX base that I love more fait.Cette last (vox ...) is much more ergonomic especially in terms of "walking movements" Further, without the risk of my stuff off the current game (like the dunlop whose race is tight), the sound of the VOX is never showy, it is "bigger" and more, is it really that Hendrix played ...
Version "hanwired" that VOX is out should not be disgusting ...

Overall, a very good pedal for those seeking a classic of the genre.
