JP Diaz

JP's number 1 guitar that has modified humbuckers.

"This compressor is really awesome. I have total control on it. Very useful from studio to live gigs and you can choose different ratios of compressor. It is really clean and it produces that "stealthy" sound on my tone."

"I really liked this wah pedal from the good folks from Dunlop. It is very versatile and you can even try to switch from higher wah range to the lowest chunkier wah sound."

"I really dig this flanger. It has a vintage type of flanger sound and it has the right amount of that airy and wave sound. Some other famous flangers creates big wavy flanging sound and I am not comfortable But this is really awesome. It came after the ADA flanger combined with the Ibanez classic Flanger. It came from Paul Gilbert's brain and madness."

"This is my favorite pedal on my gear. I use this for my clean sound. It has the lower amount of gain, perfect for those clean sound. Sometimes you need a little sauce to your clean sound with the right amount of gain. It is very versatile. You can even tweak your tone through the 3 band EQ which is the Treble, Middle, and Bass. I like to use overdrive or distortion pedals that has 3 band EQ so you can tweak your sound better. The Mids are important especially when you are using an amp that has bass and treble controls only without mids and with some pickups that really concentrates with the same bass and treble sound. This is very useful."

"Some guitar players thought that this is created after a Tube Screamer pedal but it's not. It came from the idea of Shin Suzuki from Japan. He is known as an "Amp Master" in Japan. Well he is creating sounds after Dumble Amplifiers which is very expensive. Dumble Amplifiers produces a great sound especially the overdrive part and this pedal has it. You can also switch it to a muscle type of sound by pushing the "Dark" switch. It has the moderate overdrive sound. Not too low and not too high. Most of my "Overdriven" sound came from box."

"Just like what I said, I like dirty sounds that has a 3 band EQ on it. I am more of a tweaker. I like to tweak and to shape my sound according on what I want. This is really badass! This is really producing a heavy and massive sound. The unique thing about this pedal, it is very versatile. I am not the type of guy relying on the amp's distortion. As much as possible I want my original sound that's why I prefer using the clean side of my amp because you can easily notice your tone."

"I have used different of boost pedals and this is my weapon of choice. It's a two-in-one pedal. You can create unstoppable feedback for some dynamics and you can boost your sound. The unique thing about this pedal is it has the Tone Knob which you can dial-in your preferred boost sound. If you want a fatter boost sound, setup the tone on the low. If you want a mid-focused boost, set it up on the center. If you want a sharp and edgy boost, set the tone knob on higher settings. Plus you can use this as a clean boost or a dirty boost. I like pedals which has a lot of options."

"This very easy to use. I preferred this pedal after my gain pedals. It is a 3 band noise gate."

"I like this pedal because all delay types are here. I use the analog type of sound for my added sauce when I am playing."

"Based on EMT140 Plate Reverb in early 70's, used by Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, Pink Floyd.The Catalinbread Talisman is the best reverb pedal. Pure analog reverb, perfect for studio and live performances. From clean reverb sparkles to infinite reverb madness."

"I am very acidic. My hands are sweaty and it has something to do with the life of the strings but this strings is really durable and it lasts long. I have used different strings with great tone but I like using this on live performances to avoid any string breakage during live events."

"This is the perfect guitar pick on my picking style."

"It is a very simple wireless system that I can see on the market and I really preferred this one."
