It's here! Holy mother of all cows!!!! What a great pedal. Shit, Ryan your slayer setting rules! Fuck me, this sound is so in your face and amplike! I had an EVH 5150 50W before that and I thought I'd never get that sound out of a pedal. But it's much much better! Precise and so much definition! Thank you Ryan for making this awesome piece of gear. I'll be metaling my ass of today and maybe I'll find time to try some of the other sounds, but for now I'm so happy with this heavy sound! :yay: :yay:

here's a little something from me, strings are a bit old, so the pinch harmonics are a bit weak.

Totally awesome, thanks for the post and clip! Love the clip BIGTIME!

I'm always anxious when I know somebody has a pedal coming and they're really excited for it... it really makes my day to know you dig it so much. And those super heavy palm mutes and super fast picking... we're talking best friend material right there. *smile*

Thank you again!

Thanks, it's nothing special, I want to make a better demo with some of the settings from the settings-thread witha studio mic and interface. Should be fun ;)

I gotta say, this is the first high gain pedal, that actually works with my amp. I tried an Okko Dominator, sounded like poop. And I have the Nobrainer from GHE, which is a bit better, but still not there. And I had the AMT Bogner pedal, which was good, but you could tell, that it sounded like a pedal and the bottom end was just not there. I once had the Digitech Scott Ian model and played it through a Marshall acoustic amp. That pedal sounded awesome, especially with the amp. I'm biting my butt every day, that I sold it, but I was young and dumb^^

So thank you for making this KEEPER pedal and for still being so involved with you customers! Never change that! :)

That's awesome, Atrox, I'm really happy you're liking it! When I make a fuzz/distortion pedal I play the same kind of stuff with it as you do, crushing palm mutes and fast picking, we must dig the same kinds of sounds. You're a clean amp kinda guy too, hey?

I had a chance to trade for one of those Scott Ian pedals recently and I regret not getting it!

I had an EVH amp before, but always liked the concept of a clean amp and pedals to make the actual sounds. After I quit my band, I sold the EVH and started looking for good high gain pedals. So I'm just building my pedalboard up to whre I am satisfied, which I think will never happen! It's too much fun :idk:

Yeah, I'm not a big effects guy, reverb and delay and maybe flanger and that's it for me. But I could buy dirt pedals every day, if i'd had the money... By the end of next week I'll have 6 dirt pedals on my board. And I still need, yes need, more!

Thank you! Just loaded the corona chorus batch into my stereo wet and WOW! i never saw a point in chorus, but with the Elements the sound totally opens up and is huge! Super cool solo sound for some Eddie and Zakk!

I think I'll stick with the Corona Chorus, it's the first chrous sound I really like! So it's time for a miniberator, Ryan hold a red tv back for me, I can order one after christmas :joy:
