Got a Penny Pedals Pocket Watch!

Post by hazelwould »

Image

Really great OD. Can nail that light, yet fuzzy sound. Can get pretty lofi with lots of artifacts, or beefy and heavy. Really great box. And I know most here care less about "dynamics" but I can play soft and get pretty clean and chimey, then dig in and get good grit.

And it looks really great in person!

That thing looks awesome!
I'm not sure I could make that layout work with my board but if it sounds as good as it looks, I may have to try.

How does it compare to the FUCK/MINI?

I would say it compares to the Fuck/Mini... Just with less EQ control. It's got a good base sound (like the fuck), and other functions that aid in the tonal function of the pedal. Hard to explain. But it has a great base sound that can be really fat or clean boostish. So in summary, not as much gain as the fuck/mini or tonal options. But it does sound great and had a really great base tone. It got really good light gain with a bit of hair/fuzz. And cranked it probably gets into light fingerprint fuzz sounds. But still very articulate.

Maybe if ya have a fuck or mini a vs? I really am curious how they compare. The dirt sounds really different but they both got good sound.

Gaahhhh that's why I want one... The Finger does those sounds too so I was hoping it'd be similar...

All of the guitar sounds are from the pocket watch. The clean main part is the gain set low and a bit more chime. And the chord stuff is a warm, fuzzy drive sound.
