Just got this pedal in the mail today, couldn’t wait till my neighbors and girlfriend wake up to their alarm clocks 8 hours from now😂 (it’s 11:25pm EST if you’re wondering) I have heard so many good things and great stories about this pedal, and I just couldn’t resist anymore…I had to find out for myself what this pedal is like. I’ve been hearing about this pedal for years and I honestly never gave it a serious thought. I couldn’t justify buying a pedal that similar to my Boss Harmonist or EHX Pog 2. They’re both really great pedals with a ton of options and versatility. Not to mention that they sound absolutely spectacular. I’ve been in several bands throughout my musical journey…some we always played in E standard, others we’d use drop tunings…I’ve always been a guitar nut but when I buy a guitar I have a specific function and tuning in mind. I have guitars set up for specific tunings and now that I took the jump on this pedal…I at a loss in a manner of speaking but at a good loss. The most impressive thing about the EHX pitchfork is the ability to play multiple different tunings without much effort. Eb, D, C, B and so on and so forth. If any string at all needs to be tuned for say Drop C…just the top E string down to D….the pitch fork does the rest. It tracks dead on spot, no glitches or “digital” sounding hiccups. There is a tiny bit of a hum when playing crystal clean, but add some overdrive or distortion…it’s no longer noticeable. I tend to gravitate toward pedals with versatility and this is an extremely versatile pedal! Options for a latched (on or off) or momentary foot switch (Royal Blood or Rage Against the Machine-ish) it spans three octaves up or down…a feat the boss harmonist doesn’t come remotely close to…you have a switch that give you the option to go up in pitch, down in pitch or both at the same time. This is really a superb pedal! I highly recommended it! Even if you don’t really use pitch shifters, this pedal is still very usable in my opinion. If not solely for the momentary switch/ expression pedal options to add some more spice to your sound! The EHX pitchfork is one of those pedals that NO REVIEWS, really do it justice compared to how it sounds in person. Word of mouth peaked my interest, but never heard one being used. Once I found out all the stuff it could do, I was really interested…just for something new and different on my pedal board I took the jump…its more than earned its place on my pedalboard, a permanent place. This pedal is worth every cent! EHX knocked it out of the park with the pitchfork! I highly encourage everyone to at the very least give it a try! It’s an experience you will not forget and one that you can’t get enough of!

Now Im going to have a lot of work to do getting my guitars set up again for E standard…but it’s worth it…
