I bought one of these First Act guitar that have a shitty distortion built in with the intent of putting a delay in there. It's actually not a bad guitar higher quality than their walmart guitars.

Don't get it. Is it a "watch me do this weird trick" type of thing to showboat on gigs? :idk:
Aren't there plenty of really nice delay pedals out there that have an expression pedal output to control the delay time in a much easier way? :idk:

I guess if it's the only effect you use I can see the appeal of just walking in with your guitar, plugging in and going without worrying about a board and all.

Would you be able to avoid needing a 9v if you added an XLR output to your guitar and ran a pre-amp with phantom power? Or is that crazy talk

I've wondered the same thing, it seems like a rad idea. A friend of mine has a CE-2 or some other chorus instead of a rhythm circuit in their Jag and that seems like a rad idea.

That would be possible, but phantom power is 48v. And usually the max current is ~14 mA

I thought about putting that small yellow looper (name escapes me at the moment) in there so you can control the time stretch.
