Re: El Toro's Official Guitarded Thread...
I wouldn't write off the Line 6 Echo Park, either. I have one of those and a DD-5, and I much prefer the Echo Park.
The one I want though is the new EH Memory Boy Deluxe.
http://www.ehx.com/products/deluxe-memory-boy
It has some great "common sense" innovations like an assignable expression pedal, tap tempo (not really an innovation, but it's ghey when a delay doesn't have it) and my favorite, an effects loop so you can have effects solely on the delay part of the signal!
Got my Wampler Pinnacle in the mail and rehearsed it yesterday. Still getting used to it, but it does certain stuff *very* well...more as I develop an opinion...!

The pinnacle is pretty sweet, but they really push the "powertube" sag sorta thing...I'm not sure yet if it's gonna be for me.Suite 16 Guitarist wrote:Wampler Pinnacle or Wampler Super Plexi...really digging the Super...pricey for a distortion pedal
I've only used it the one rehearsal, and I got it that day so it was just plug in and play~no time to tweak it.
I got the limited edition one though. I figure in a year I can resell for a profit, so there's no loss in trying

Do you have the Super Plextortion? I'm interested to know how it stacks up.
Pun...intended.

Re: El Toro's Official Guitarded Thread...
I scored a SWEET Charvel San Dimas (black, tele style) from our own ElToro in a trade. I f'n love it. It's perfect for me, the neck is pure perfection and it sounds beautiful.
It's at my tech's house getting set up for me, and I cannot wait to get it back.
I also wanted to just throw it out there that I've bought a few things from ElToro and he's a great guy to work with. If you ever do any trades or business with him, he's 100% good to go. A total pleasure to work with. Thanks Toro, I am thrilled w/my new baby.

Re: El Toro's Official Guitarded Thread...
I have a Hellbabe, I bought it when they first came out and have been really pleased with it. I am not a wah aficionado but it's a pretty feature-filled wah for the price. Close enough to the Crybaby with the 5-way frequency switch and the boost function.ElToro wrote:Thanks!!! That Explorer rules!

I knew the right person was gonna love that San Dimas Tele, too! I would have jumped on that if I had the money to spend. Classy looks and modern features, and you can't go wrong with Charvel/Jackson guitars!
