The EHX tortion seems pretty legit.

[TimmyPage]

Anyone tried one? This is a seriously cool demo, but I haven't seen them anywhere in the UK yet.



For lower gain examples:



Seems like EHX has really stepped up their game this year (not to ignore their HUGE contributions to the pedal world like the Muff, Mistress etc)

EHX made much of the "new" stuff back in the 60s and 70s. They were THE effects mfr.

They WERE the effects manufacturer... 40 years ago.

I know! When I say 'stepped up their game' I really mean more in the sense that they've more recently gotten a reputation as being cheap or weird. There was genuine emotional trauma with the Soul Food on TGP, everyone liked the tone but a lot of them were cautious or shy about openly owning EHX.

People are idiots but I love the thought of some overpaid megachurch guitar player being embarassed by the fact that he uses any specific pedal for his overdrive tones... What a goddamn *******. Jesus hates RocknRoll anyway right?
As for EHX... It must be hard for them. They were THE pedal squad for a long time and now everybody's just ripping them off and adding cool paint. I will try this stortion when I can but I already know its not gona beat my ZVex Double Rock, Black Arts Coven or Abominable Hail Cannabis.

I'll admit it, I like EHX. No shame at all.
