Danophobe TOB V2 FAIL

Post by Dave »

HHmm GMD has done an a/b with V1 and V2 and, given the limitations of youtube, it's pretty obvious that V2 doesn't come close to V1. I'm not sure its even fair to say it's just 'different' Dull, flat, deadening WTF where my sustain go? Hmmmm. In the second half of the vid the V2 starts to sound great when he maxes the bass (i think) so perhaps its not all bad.:

Oddly GMD likes V2 more...possibly to deflect people Timmywards.

I watched this sometime ago and thought that they were 2 totally different effects and like you said BCB, once he maxed out the bass it sounded pretty good. You could definitely have both for different tonalities if you wanted. I wasn't surprised GMD said he prefered v2 though as he tends to prefer that sound on him other demo's.

Its true okay theres room for improvement but for the sheer scope and the fact he a/b's similar or comparitive pedals...which is really what anyone would want if wanting to get a 'type' of pedal or at least i would. Lets assume hes demoed over 500 pedals in these over 500 videos that must be quite a good share of the boutique and not so boutique market available so if most are like TSers then maybe that reflects the market more than GMD. Maybe I am wrong.

it's almost like saying if one demos pedals one has to demo the broad range of them. is that like a law or something. there are all these niches in the market. so why not focus on ONE NICHE. a narrow scope makes sense.

Gearmandude is awesome, mainly because if i'm interested in buying a pedal there is a pretty good chance that he's done a demo of it which I can find on YouTube.

He's alright, but I find him an insufferable prick all the same. I don't know why. It's a combination of his accent, attitude, snakeskin fucking boots, and the way he seems to jerk off all over his shit.

How dare he be American, wear showy shoes, and enjoy his pedals which make his guitars make ace noises.

EKWatts: you are being a right fucking curmudgeon lately. Do your diss and cheer up.

It's a bit rough criticising someone by their accent, he can't help the way he talks.

I bet he doesn't even pronounce "solder" correctly.

I dig his comparison reviews -- particularly the EHX ones where he compares XO models to their earlier counterparts. I've never even seen him demo a TS.
