Re: Bognor Wessex or La Grange.... anyone compared them?
I still need to get the La Grange. Out of the three other big Bogner pedals, I think the Red is the most redundant - the blue doesn't have nearly as much gain, but I'm always dining the master volume anyways and there's already so much overdrive coming from the power section that I actually have the blue on the the lowest gain settings - variac on/plexi/neutral/100th and then I still back off the gain knob. The red has just too much gain in this setup, and works a lot better in situations when you can't dome the master volume, and the Uberschall is just so wildly different from either that it's worth having. Hopefully the La Grange will be on the lower gain side, and not be so similar to the blue that it's redundant ($300 is pretty expensive for a redundancy). Apparently the La Grange is also supposed to be more of a plexi like overdrive+boost instead of being based off a specific amp like the XTC or Uber. I'm curious, but not in a rush. I haven't tried the smaller pedals either - I think the larger pedals are kind of versatile enough to cover the same ground (and then some more) that the smaller ones would.
