birthday money well spent
The other day, at the doorstep of the big snow storm, I ventured to guitar center to spend my birthday money. I’m very pleased with what I got. I bought two new pedals for my electric guitar, a Boss TU-2 Chromatic Tuner and a Visual Sound Jekyll & Hyde Ultimate Overdrive. I absolutely love the Boss! The best part is, is that it powers all the rest of my pedals. I no longer have a use a big bulky powerstrip on my undersized, home-made suitcase, pedal board.
I was a little leary of the Jekyll & Hyde but I took the salespersons advice and gave it a whirl on a pseudo set-up of my gear. I ended up liking it a lot. I went with the intention to get the Ibanez Tube Screamer. The cool part about the Jekyll & Hyde is that it has an overdrive side and a distortion side. The overdrive side is modeled after the Tube Screamer’s 70′s model (this is the one that everybody tries to get). All in all, I’m very happy with my purchase it has definitely added depth to my electric guitar and I no longer have to use the factory overdrive on my amp.
There hasn’t been a day that has gone by that I haven’t played the Telecaster (which is odd). I’ve really enjoyed it with my new pedals. Who knows maybe I’ll start playing it out a little more!
