Played it this weekend for the first time. It was amazing...really hard to explain, but amazing!

I had it set with the gain at 12 oclock and the volume at around 10 oclock, and it just gave me this overall tone enhancement that's really hard to describe. Everything seemed to come alive and the notes jumped off the strings and my guitar rang like a bell. It added dynamics and just an overall "presence" to my rig. If ever there was a "talent booster" pedal, this is it!

I'll have a chance to play around with the knobs a bit more in a few days, they say it can get into some slightly fuzzy territory with everything cranked?

Very nice!!! High on my list to get!! One of the best "always on" pedals. Right up there with the Dutham Sex Drive!

the em-drive looks really sweet. Hey Hoss what do you think of that voyager?! I want one.

LOVE the Voyager! My favorite drive ever! Cleans up well...gets plenty crunchy for me...adds some nice top end and cut to your sound without what i would call the traditional "hump", without sacrificing low end.

Can compress some as the gain goes up, just enough.

Keeps note definition and complexity.

Really cuts through & shines in a live band setting.

You drank the TGP Kool Aid, didn't you?

That's okay, so did I - I've got a custom MKII Tonebender coming in, along with a custom Tri/Ram from Basic Audio. I'm also selling my Landgraff Mo'D for a Kingsley Jester. Doesn't get more Koolaid-y than that.

That pedal sounds really nice. Congrats.

Sort of off topic here, but what model Pedal train is that?
I'm in the market to swap out my Gator board for a Pedal train of some sort, and that one looks about the perfect size.

Nah, i got to know the guy who owns Emerson (Mitch Ingram) a little bit on a P&W Facebook group. That's where most of my pedal influence/info comes from nowadays.
