WHETSTONE demo with no knob or switch left untouched

Post by Bobby D »

this pedal has SO MANY options and sounds, it is impossible to do one ten minute demo and capture what it can do.

so......i decided to do a demo using the same 2 chord pattern over and over.....and basically run thru ALL the various settings that i could.

the vibrato mode continues to amaze me -- if this vibrato mode was put into a dedicated vibrato pedal, people would trip out over it.

so, enough talk......let's RAWK:

LOVE how this thing almost gets a Zeppelin "Dazed and Confused" sort of vibe....

hahahaha.....yeah, i gotta remember to put my cellie cell on SILENT when i am making demos.

this phaser continues to surprise me the more i play with it.

i can go either way -- a simple single knob phaser like a phase 90.......or go ALL THE WAY with something like the Whetstone.

it takes up a LOT of real estate on the pedalboard, but i think it's worth it.

i am gonna do more demos that show some of my favorite settings.

the VIBRATO is amazing. Blackout should consider making a VIBRATO box, because THAT sound is KILLER....better than some other dedicated vibrato boxes i have heard....

this is a HARD pedal to demo Kyle.......the Mantra is EASY...crank it up and RAWK :joy:

but the Whetsone has SO MANY sounds, so many little nooks and crannies to sonically explore, it's taking me a while to get a good grip on it :love:
