    I fully agree with you ...two is better than one ...and since I got already the BE-OD I'm now waiting for the Smallbox to land in Europe ...

    Very useful comparison, thanks! I was thinking DiMartini/Ratt with the opening jam, but can hear the Lynch also now that you mention it :) Sub’d!

      I guess you could use this as that but it's not meant to be used as such. It's an amp in a box.

    Sick playing man sounds like Lynch used to sound. Have been playing the small box boosted. Tumnus is a great OD to put in front of other pedals too. Key is to find ones that boost in different frequency ranges according to Wampler. Not an expert wish that was easier to figure out. 2 pedals and a eq with boosted mid range (reverse of mid scoop) is another I have tried out too- I have noticed it will make the eq on the small box all sound the same. I like to boost the distortion without maxing the gain or treble getting into “metal zone”unnatural harshness or grinding sounds. Using several pedals I get it boosted never getting to the tonal characteristics of maxed gain, like to keep it at 75%-80% or lower. I can only tell the gain structures apart with an 18v power source. Somehow the switch got unplugged I think too had to open it and unplug it push it back in. It looked like it was plugged about halfway at first don’t think it was making any connection.

    • @TavaresProject
      @TavaresProject  2 роки тому +1

      Hey thank you. I use the tumnus as well and a pedal that works really well is the wampler mini ego comp.... To my surprise. I don't normally like compression on distortion but that one seems to hit it differently.

      @@TavaresProject I use that one too! The only compressor I have ever bought I generally hate the idea. It goes well with that pedal I bought both bc of Amazon’s ad system lol.
      Btw- I like the way you create space with long bends and vibrato. A little bit like Marty Friedman who prob got it from Lynch. Been thinking of ways to create more space in my own leads not overplay.

      @@bojangles6444 I'm glad you noticed that... And yes I learned it from Lynch, EVH and all those amazing players.. my biggest complaint with modern day players is that they can play virtually anything at any speed but hardly do they ever bend and use vibrato for creating emotion and just taking a breath.

      @@TavaresProject the tones in the tune were f'n great, really enjoyed it. I have the Smallbox, and now just got two pedals from CKK/Sinvertek. The v1 Scream Honey, and the v4 Drive N5+ "3D Gold". The three on my board, it's like having the best 50w Marshall- a modded out Marshall- and a Soldano/Bogner/Egnater/Engl/H&K/5150 type monster for everything over the top. Those and the Klamac El Mo' for the Fender Twin tone of SRV, and I have 4 ch's of killer that covers everything through any amp. I should learn how to make UA-cam vids!

      @@TavaresProject Ok, so the pedal has had 3 different housings and a revision. 1st was the Arc Furnace which is the same circuit as all but has a boost [they improve the boost later]. I provided the link below, then then 2nd was the El Mo' and the El More which replaces the treble for presence [smaller/no boost], then the original guy sold it all to his partner and now the 3rd version is by RFO Electronics called the Tone Star Custom. It is the same El Mo pedal with an improved boost and a stack order function that is really cool, and it is currently available new.
      I don't know if a link will make it past UA-cam's rules, but listen to this before searching for more. This vid is the best tonal representation. ua-cam.com/video/RJ5_jyvMaS8/v-deo.html
      Definitely listen to THIS ^ vid first, because the guy that did the RFO vid recorded the room sound and it's subdued in tone and volume. Still great, but this link I sent is what the El Mo and the RFO sound like - PLEASE reply here and let me know what ya think thx

    Hello. Can I ask you a question about the small box?
    How much noise this pedal?
    Also, can this pedal reproduce the sound of pop punk(Greenday) or oasis well?

      What music/style? Beod is a great gain monster without sounding insane. You still get articulation and the internal pot allowed you to turn down the gain... I didn't find the small box had enough gain... But if you're playing ac/dc all day, then it's great
