Some new toys (for me)

[Auriemma]

Well, here goes...


The Dunlop "Original" Cry Baby Wah pedal (GCB-95)
and other Dunlop freebies that came with the free replacement feet.

It is built solid with a cast steel base and treadle. This pedal has very smooth action, not too loose or tight... just right. The Cry Baby Wah has a clean voice. It does and sounds exactly what a Wah pedal should.


The MXR Dyna Comp M-102:

When you plug into this puppy, your guitar seems to come alive. The over all tone becomes tighter, more focused, more sustain. It limits the louder tones and boosts the softer ones, leveling out the overall sound. The sweet spot? Set the BOOST between 2-3 o'clock and the SENSITIVITY between 9-10 o'clock, turn on and go. It is very easy to use. It works great for rhythm or lead. You want OLD SCHOOL? Start here!


My toys:

DOD TR3R (sampler-delay / stereo chorus / distortion)
Thom Scholz Rockman Soloist (for that 70's "Boston" sound)
Dunlop Cry Baby (the original Wah)
MXR Dyna Comp (the standard in compressors)
Ibanez MT10 MOStortion (Like a Tube Screamer with 3 band EQ)

Nice selection of pedals. That Crybaby looks to be in great shape. Congrats.

That Rockman makes me want to take out mine. I won't be playing guitar again until the end of July, but I can't wait. My brother bought a Rockman Metal Ace many years ago, before Gunner walked the earth, and passed it along to me in 2002. Instant 80's metal tone.
