The power of the Tube Factor - long sustained notes

[Marinblues]

I've began using my Tube Factor again, mainly since it works well with the Anderson. It gives this groovey sustain:


Power of the Tube Factor


The guitar is a Anderson Classic and the I am playing through the first channel of my engl.

Definitely sustain.. some of those tones are pretty wild. Very cool Marin.
Holy moly that riff at 1:30 totally rips!
I have a tube factor and it really screams in a live situation.

Listening...

I really loved it, Marin! Great tone! Your Anderson is a strat-style guitar, right? The track ruled, and I also loved the riff that came in at around 1:30. Killer!

Re: The power of the Tube Factor - long sustained notes

thank you very much guys.

I do recommend this pedal to make a cheap amp sound "expensive". It make the sound "bigger" and adds tube distortion. I bought it when I was playing in rehearsal rooms with crappy amps. Currently, I am not too pleased with channel 2 (high gain) of my Engl so I am boosting channel 1 with the TF.

Ocifer, the guitar is an Anderson Classic. Essentially, it's a well built Strat. The pickups are a touch "warmer" then normal Fender pickups and the radius of the neck is slightly flatter.

wow very cool tone, marin ... thats alot of sustain without being harshly compressed ... the flow from fingers to guitar to pedal to amp is in perfect alignment once again! ... thanks for sharing

thanks man. The pedal really does add sustain. The only "drawback" is that it is very very transparent. I don't mind when an OD pedal has it's own character.

That was awesome! It's a really really nice tone by itself, but it's your hands that are working it to make it sound so great. Killer job!
