New Boss Fender Deluxe Reverb Pedal

Re: New Boss Fender Deluxe Reverb Pedal

i do love boss pedals, it seems like these are made with the same technology as the Cube amp moddels. I own a cube 60 and ive always been impressed with its moddels. They'll probly end up putting out pedals for the other cosm moddels on the cube.
 
Re: New Boss Fender Deluxe Reverb Pedal

tried it. sounded gimmicky, really. not like a deluxe at all- my guess is they will sell a lot to people who don't know what a deluxe sounds like, but it had a nice reverb and trem.

. . . WOULD YOU SAY THE TREM IS "BETTER" ON THESE NEW FENDE/BOSS UNITS THAN THE OLD BOSS TR-2 ???
 
Re: New Boss Fender Deluxe Reverb Pedal

You can hear samples of thet one and the Bassman pedal on either the Boss website of Musicians Friend, don't remember which, though. They ok, nothing earth shaking.

+1 :)
Great amp for the price-tag. Though thinking back I should have bought a smaller one. Maybe I could have even brought it along to germany then.
 
Re: New Boss Fender Deluxe Reverb Pedal

never tried the tr-2, since i never use trem. I am not against amp modeling either, since I use it a lot. However, most modelers would say something like 'California Dlx' and not mention Fender by name. Not only avoiding the wrath of Fender in the process- but it lets the consumer know it is 'based on' a certain model. These pedals make you think you sound 'exactly' like a deluxe or bassman with any amp. You won't. Not even close. Again, it is marketed to people who don't know what these amps sound like- people who do, know better.

10 4 Mincer,
IMHO, this pedal is nothing more than a marketing scam.
 
Re: New Boss Fender Deluxe Reverb Pedal

Why would anyone buy a pedal claiming to sound like some other amp than the one they have instead of just buying the amp they think they want their sound to be like?

Or is this like the solid-state pedal through a tube amp is the only way to get the true tube sound... sort of argument?
 
Re: New Boss Fender Deluxe Reverb Pedal

After hearing many clips, if the deluxe reverb pedal was named differently, I think it would probably be popular.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and assume that more people can afford a pedal than an amp.

LOL......You beat me to the punch brother! I was gonna say that the pedal is a bit cheaper than the amp! Like $150 vs about $800....
 
Re: New Boss Fender Deluxe Reverb Pedal

I don't know about the Boss pedal, but I am vERY satisfied with the Verbzilla.
 
Re: New Boss Fender Deluxe Reverb Pedal

I don't think there is any reason to be disappointed if it doesn't sound like the real thing. I just don't feel that it is practical to assume that a pedal will actually bring the exact sound of these classic amps into your own amp. If I ever purchased one of these, I would just be looking at it as a unique overdrive pedal.
