Holy shit ULTIMATE DRIVE

vierphoria · Post by **vierphoria** » Fri Dec 14, 2012 10:29 am

Of course you've heard of Joyo Pedals.

But have you heard about the Ultimate Drive and how fucking amazingly great it sounds? Guess you have. If not -- now you do.

Bought one from eBay for about Â£20. Got it yesterday and played around with it when rehearsing. Was utterly blown away. It sounds amazing. From transparent drive to mental fucking fuzz-like distortion. And it has a low-pass and high-pass filter. And a tone knob. And a gain knob.

Yeah, it's an OCD-clone, but what the hell. It's about Â£100 less. And it's not made by someone who treats his customers like garbage.

Not tried any Joyo gear yet, looks good value. I never knew they made amplifiers....

Based on the build quality of the UD I got, it'd be a brave man who bought a Joyo amp. But yeah, the UD sounds good. It was the centre of the Fr**kish Blues* nonsense a year ago. I bought one and sold it on with the FB mods. The Fulltone pedal isn't too expensive. Think I'd rather have that.

* don't write the full name, please. That guy googles his company name and is a massive troll and a cunt to boot.

Fuck that guy. He's a fucking fraudster and he deserves to be named and shamed as much as possible.

He has a pic comparing the circuits of both pedals on the front page of his website.

Didn't think yer man was still going? Surely the jig's up, like?

Doesn't really make much difference that he changed it once everyone found out he was a massive fraud. He still started a business repainting another makes pedals and selling them on for much higher prices.

Indeed, they will never see a penny from me because they are proven bullshitters.

Tim, I recall you had to remove a blog post or something? Is there any real reason i shouldn't mention them here? What power did he threaten with?

The power of BULLSHIT.

I'm still in love with my Joyo AC Tone... great pedals, and +1 for not having to deal with an asshole.

Something like that. He's just a delusional, borderline psychotic fuckhead. It was mainly just tiresome as he created dozens of youtube accounts to give all my demo vids negative votes and leave abusive comments. I don't have the time to delete all the comments from my vids next time he gets drunk.

Ho lee shit.

Fucking hell.

Right well in that case I feel some retribution is in order. Fucking cuntcock. That pisses me off immensely.

What the hell?!

I couldn't sit through that vid all the way through. It was so cringe-inducing my toes are literally aching from curling up so much. Where do you start? The amateurish camera work? The tuneless fretboard wankery? The cynical and sexist "lets get two women in bikinis to lounge around while some guy noodles away for several minutes" angle? Blimey. Fail.

I don't even have to press play to be lol-ing.

(at the Spinal Tap vid that is... cried for the poor ladies in the CreepishBlues one, mere days away from pee porn).
