Me? Not really. I'm only interested in buying the very best. I'll have this pedal provided nobody else can afford it.
Nay, the man in the video. Google says he collaborated with Miles Davis. I guess that's pretty cool.

Genius but a hard guy to get into though, to me he almost sits in the same kind of territory as someone like Holdsworth.

Holdsworth is, pretty sure McLaughlin isn't. Funnily enough I was reading an article in a fairly recent Guitarist mag just last week about him, talking about his PRS and how he's into all the digital & MIDI side of things. Went out and picked up the DVD with him & Santana live but couldn't get into it at all :crazy:

This sounds good to me, but not better than any one of the 100's of very good clean boost pedals and it's obviously got a buffer in so that it does stuff when turned off. No idea how much it costs but I bet it's expensive!

I love Allen Hinds, his 'Fly South' album is quite splendid.

Its a boost pedal right?
Id say the most useful pedal on my board (other than the tuner) is a very transparent subtle clean boost (catlinbread picosa)
So yes id say its good. Forget old mate in the video. He probably doesnt come with it anyway.
