What Seymour Duncan pedal would you like to see next?

Seymour Duncan Customer Support
Every time I think we have a complete set, they bring another one out. Nobody ever tells me. OK, sometimes they do tell me. But let's assume for the moment that I don't know nuthin'.

Dirty Deed, Pickup Booster, 805, Vapor Trail, Vise Grip (and Studio Bass Compressor), and now the Shape Shifter is back.

What should be next?

A new-and-improved version of something we've had before, like the Pickup Booster or Shape Shifter?

Something entirely different?

Let's pour ourselves some wine and have us a chat.
 
Re: What Seymour Duncan pedal would you like to see next?

My vote is for a wah, just because I'd be interested to see their take. Or an improved pickup booster with a decked out eq section (:

Crazy idea part two, combine the pickup booster with an overdrive pedal. Because it just sounds that amazing driving an overdrive. But with separate footswitch control.

I have an original Twin Tube Mayhem. I'd love (and hate) to see a new TT Mayhem with a 10 band eq. The only reason I say "hate" is because then I would have to get the new one too.

I'd love to see their take on an all-out metal pedal. Tube, no tube, digital -- doesn't matter. It must be really easy to make an awful-sounding high-gain pedal, given the copious supply of models to choose from. Given how much I love my Power Grid, I think SD would have a solid entry in Teh Moddern Brootlz category. I'd step over other pedals to try it out. I need something to round out the dirt section of my pedal board. I've tried a bunch of the ones that are out there, and they stink.

Something like the ISP Theta, just at a lower pricepoint. I've been wanting another Theta pedal, but found a Peavey XXL head for $150 less *delivered.* Not exactly the same, but similar levels of brutality.

So combine the 805 with the pickup booster? Sounds good to me...

A germanium/silicon switchable fuzz (preferably with octave modes).
An updated acoustic/bass DI.
A "Black Winter" 2 channel 3 band eq distortion that was mentioned in an earlier thread.
A noise gate.

Maybe even work in some sort of a twin diode stage that could be placed either in front of, or after the tube gain stages. Or even allow an option for it to be all ss. You could even allow the eq to be footswitched in and out, or dedicated to either the whole tone circuit or just the boost channel.

A phaser with an expression output. Or a Vapor Trail with tap tempo and an expression output.

Yes please.

I'm a big fan of octave effects, be they OC-2 style downward doubling or Octavia-style upper overtones. I'd like to see something like that, maybe with a wet-out option and a compressor circuit to add some extra fullness to the generated tones.

I've got to say, the suggestions that I've made for the TT-Mayhem 2.0 would be just that.
 
Re: What Seymour Duncan pedal would you like to see next?

How about a Seymourized Leslie pedal? That would be awesome, a rotary speaker pedal with preset save and a second switch for fast and slow, and you can adjust every aspect of the speaker itself, which would mean rotor balance, crossover leakage and mic positioning, and make it stereo on the bigger model, and mono on the cheaper model. And the sweetest feature would be overdrive, and a REAL tube in it for the overdrive section. Like a 12AX7 or something from an old all-tube TV.

That's a very tall order friend.

Well it would sell man. I think on the first day the Leslie pedal will sell.

Re: What Seymour Duncan pedal would you like to see next?

Ok, I'm not very knowledgeable on this. But I was wondering if there is any pedal available that sort of improves the clean in your amp. I know about spark boost and pickup boost and compression etc. But to be specific about what I have in mind, I want this: a pedal that will create a Twin Reverb type of clean sound. For instance I have a 35 watt Orange, 8" speaker. It has very neutral kind of clean and the eqs are good enough to add just enough brightness. I would like a pedal that I can connect and get a deluxe/twin reverb kind of clean. Is there any product like that in the market? I don't think so. I think this has great market potential too.
