Exactly what I want to hear. Generally they know what to look for and a pedal just isn't it, but you never know... Thanks.

i'm sure you'll be ok. i've traveled with pedals internationally many times before and they've never asked me to open an individual pedal up. if your pedals have batteries in them then you may have more of an issue so in general i would remove batteries before flying to avoid any hassle.

This literally just pretty years in a reverb sandwich, I can make an entire album with this set up and not get bored.

Every time I turn on my Pretty Years I get wood. Is that normal?

So I tried all the suggested setting again last night and none of them sounded the same as before. LOL!

Does anyone else get whacky results time after time with this sucker?? It makes me miss my No Memory. My only wish was I would have sold it at a enormous price gouge like the ones I see sell now. #regret #mybonerwillneversoften

I only get wacky results with PY and I love it! I mean, it's pretty easy to get stable results if you keep the FM off and avoid the feedback paths, but what's the fun in that?

Some of the better normal sound I've gotten have FM and multiple feedback paths, though. the trick to using the FM in a normal context is to put it at 0 and then raised little by little. It makes the sound a lot more dynamic.

Damn dude, this is awesome.

Damn, I need to bring my PY home soon. I have it on my board in the rehersal space and I don't get to play with it enough. I kick it on whenever I can during rehersals, but it's not enough!!

Definitely a home/tweaking pedal. When I get my keys/tabletop setup going (this will take some time...) the PY will live there very happily, though it might take an occasional trip to the guitar/bass board for recording.

Just having it on my guitar board sounded great but I felt I was under utilising the pedal

i got you

weird. i'll see if i can recreate that

As soon as I get some extra cash again, I'm going to try and snag one of these. I fucking HATE myself for selling it to fund my Secret Satan stuff, but I didn't have any money and had already committed... I mean, it's about giving anyway right? I love my SS anyway. So it's worth it.

Miss it like butts though.

Yeah. I had that happen when I went Fuck > PY. It was weird. I just tweaked the settings a bit (filters I think) and it hasn't happened since. Overloaded tubes? Dunno lol.
