i'd mostly use the crunch side, but even then, i like it. well, from the demo anyway. it would be fun to use the other size though for some metal up your ass thrills

buddy of mine went sick and got 3 of these things, tube od, valve, and metal
the valve does sound the best out of the lot, mainly the satchurated side of the dial
the metal is a metal zone w/ more difinition and better high end response
and the tube od is as boring as all the other tube ods

but yeah, i just saw that on my subscriptions too and kinda want to go play it some more :oops:
too many dirt pedals though
but don't be surprised if i show up with one next week :twisted:

Ha, I just played that to remember what it was. That's two minutes long. I doubt you'd get anything on MTV now for two whole minutes uninterrupted. Sign of the times, I suppose.

hahahaha.

see proguitarshop annoys me because it's always a dirty amp. 90% of the drive and fuzz pedals they demo sound the same because ALL I AM HEARING IS YOUR 65 AMPS SOHO.

and now he's using dirty fender amps, brilliant.

Do all Americans say 'Less Paul'? I've always said it 'Lez Paul'.

Lez is how you pronounce Les as the in the name anyway. Less makes no ruddy sense.

Neither do dirty amp dirt pedal demos either though.

i could probably see the point with booster pedals, to give you an idea of how much you can drive you lead channel with it maybe.

I don't think the whole theme was ever on tv, least not on the CH4 ones I used to watch.

Damn, I love that theme. I remember trying to learn it badly years ago, maybe I should give it another go..

i learned that main riff accidentally (incidentally, rather) while playing this obsessively (idly, rather) when i couldn't think of anything original to play but i still had my guitar on my lap because that's how i roll in the family room:
