New boost

A few days ago, I sold off one of my acoustic guitars in preparation for the upcoming unemployment days. It's insufficient to see things through but it's better than no money at all. There was an unexpected windfall along the way so I managed to get the BOSS BP-1w. These days, I'm more interested in acquiring (affordable) gear to beef up my tone so this, to me, was a good buy especially when I get to use accumulated Swee Lee membership points for discounts. Full appraisal soon.

Euro killings

The Killing Floor is indeed my staple pedal for each playing session. I kinda prefer hearing the guitar with more of what it should sound like rather than colouring it with a drive pedal. It's also dead simple, just a one knob affair with 3 voicing options. Grabbed the Euro II by mistake while playing but decided to stay with the pick throughout- mistakes & all. 

Wishing you a good Monday & a good week ahead. 👍

Lenny

I was at Davis yesterday trying out the new range of JRAD pedals in store. These are the new Tour series featuring a smaller foot print which caught on after the Archer debuted. According to JRAD, Lenny happened because they were re-creating a certain Steel String Singer pedal. Essentially, it's a booster unit but one which isn't entirely clean. After hearing it in action yesterday, the Lenny proved to be a colouring agent so if you dislike your inherent tone to be affected, this isn't one to get.

The yellow fellow (4)

After the finish make-over, I still kept the booster unit in tact. I was thinking of doing away with it because it's seldom utilized but it's a default feature which is unique to this guitar so it's for keeps. The split coil switch was also preserved.

However, the default strap button made way for the Planet Waves version. I like how this dig into the slits of my straps, they also complement the use of locking contraptions like this one: CLICK
