the best cheap guitar i tried

jazzmaster sound in an easy to play solid construction for 150 bucks? a fucking banger.

so lightweight, skinny fretboard and neck.

the electronic and components in general are vague, but i like the pups, the bridge is a reversed tuneomatic

the only downside is that it doesnt have the tipical jazzmaster tremolo, but in a cheap guitar thats difficult so the hard tail give it a good stabilty.

Preferred Settings + Usage:

classic, built like a tank

is that sound, everyone knows, the big muff, that ol´ mid scooped fuzz sound.

practically impossibe to break, a good pedal, does it well on so many genres, huge fuzz.

but being honest, the size dont make sense anymore, the circuit board is a half of the size of the box, not so practical for pedalboards and gigging (plus it is hard to have it cutting in the mix due to the lack of mids).

that was my first pedal but im getting rid of it because i dont like the lack of mids for live sound and the impossibility to generate it with the tone or sustain knob. plus it can get very fizzy if you crank some knobs. and i need more sonic destruction.

i love the pedal, probably muff styled fuzz´s are my favorite pedal ever, but they need mods to make it work.

Preferred Settings + Usage:

chunky volume pedal

just a potentiometer in an expression pedal case.

the construction is fine but the action is done by a string, it seems easy to be degradated and broke with use.

big, comfy and with two outputs (one not affected by the potentiometer). u can use it for tuner (why would u do that lol) or for controlling dry/wet rigs.

Preferred Settings + Usage:

one of the best stereo digital delays

like a delay swiss knife.

it has everything and it does it at his finest on all positions.

the glitch and warp modes are cool adds and i use it a lot for intros or noise/weird sections. a lot of diferent delays, u wont use it all.

from ambient madness to subtle delays, the best.

the only downside is that tap/exp is in the same input. so u cant use external tap and expression pedal at the same time. no instantly available subdivisions tho

the tap tempo inside is weird if u change delays mid song and use glitch sounds. (i use an external tap tempo)

Preferred Settings + Usage:

very good ambient (or not) stereo verb

all the settings are so good and shine a lot on stereo. so wide. lexicon based.

the realistic reverbs are good but being honest... who tf uses polara for normie reverbs...

the halo setting is fucking good, the modulated is fine af too.

it has one downside: the reverse its an all wet verb, u can´t blend + it has latency so it starts when the strum ends. it is hard to use for example, after fuzz and for non ambient/rythmic/lead things.

thats why i dont give 5stars

thats why it isnt a 5 for me

Preferred Settings + Usage:

a cheap comp that works best in his range.

a cheap comp (probably a behringer rehoused), well constructed and easy to use.

it has a fixed ratio so u can tweak less but is perfect for begginers. i found it limited but it works fine and i love it .

it is big af without a reason, but its part of a tc collection so it must be equal to the others.

for 30´ish dollars is the best.

Preferred Settings + Usage:

it does the job

little, accurate and with buffered or true bypass options.

the construction is fine and the screen is visible, altough if u drop tune u can use the polyphonic option, or at least i dont know how.

Preferred Settings + Usage:

best transistor based cheap od

clone of the keeley´s take on the blues driver : super phat mod (that later boss cloned for the waza craft version).

for me is the best overdive i´ve ever tried (prize-quality balance) , perfect for creamy overdriven bed.

it also works for hi gain but i prefer fuzzes for that work.

maybe its a little less defined than his bigger brothes, but for the price i purchased it, is most likely a gift
