Ghost Echo issues

Post by madver »

Looking for some feedback from Ghost Echo lovers. My beloved pedal has started acting up over the past month anytime I run it in a chain with active boost or an overdrive pedal. On notes with a heavy attack I get a very ugly, distorted tone at the tail end of a single note or chord sustain. Removing all boost and playing through a nice clean channel will lessen this issue, though it can still be heard at times depending on volume.

I'm thinking the pedal needs repair, but a few emails to EQD, now, have gone unanswered.

Anyone else heard/seen/smelt this issue?

Thanks.

Check your bulk/junk mail folder cause I answered both of your emails. In any case, that shouldn't happen and we'll take care of it if you send it back.

Yikes, I'm sorry but I never saw any response and was/did/have been checking my spam folder every few hours in case it landed in there. I don't doubt you responded, though.

I'll get the pedal sent back ASAP. Thanks for answering here. Much appreciated!

It's happened at multiple sites, so not the same power and not always plugged into my power conditioner. I did wonder the same thing, though. It's on it's way to the EQD shop for review. :)

Mine has done this upon occassion as well, if I continue to notice it at higher volumes I'll have to contact you.

Haven't had a real loud jam session recently so I can't remember how often it did.
