Peavey Decade Stomp

[Securb]

Still can't find a good video on the Decade. I did find this company that makes a Decade clone. If the Peavey sounds like this I am in. It is exactly what I remember it sounding like pushing the Quad Reverb. I know exactly how I would use this in the studio.

Nostalgia sells a lot of gear. I can't wait for the Gorilla Stomp.

Pignose.

there needs to be a setting to replicate someone fanning the box open and closed with a speed setting

Pignose.

I think those are still made, no?

 

[jeremy]

i think he meant a pignose stomp

Oh! They would sell a lot of them. But then once the nostalgia wore off, they would sit on a shelf forever because no one would actually choose to have that sound.

I would love to have that sound. There is a video of Zappa using on on a talk show and his tone is amazing. Matt Pike recently used one on the new High on Fire album.

No doubt it will show up in a modeler somewhere named something like 'Frank's Pig Farm'.

I was expecting it to sound like trash, but it has an authentic low-rent late 70s vibe.

That is why I am interested in it. We are doing a song in the studio that is sludgy and doomy-sounding retro metal but the bridge is straight-up 70s glam rock ala Sweet or NY Dolls. I also do a lead over the bridge with a retro phase shifter patch. I thought this would be cool in the studio for that brighter, upbeat glam rock bridge and still do.

One could use it to boost a Metalzone...

I am starting to think Peavey's release of this pedal is a response to the Decade pedals already on the market. I have already come across three of four of them.

JHS also does a Decade pedal

^ I hadn't realized that the Decade sound was that popular. I could understand a Bandit pedal, though.

 

[jeremy]

there is a bandit pedal i think, and a vtm with all the switches

They missed an opportunity not having a line out. IMO all AIB pedals should have some type of line out.

Ideally, an XLR, but at least a balanced 1/4".

I also wonder how different that would be from this? At a fraction of the price.

This gets more interesting. Is "Bottom, Body, Edge" synonyms for BMT?

Okay gents they are still pre-order but mine is bought and paid for and ships when they land at Sweetwater. I can't wait to get the candy also.
