Xotic Pedals are the Shiznit!

[Big Mike]

Hey guys.

These are getting a ton of kudos over at TGP but thought I would share over here.

Sold my Barden Tele pups and picked up both an AC and RC booster by Xotic. had the AC for a few days, and the RC came in today.

Awesome pedals. I'm mainly running My Dr Z Z28 amp ( single channel tone monster) that you crank to get a nice bluesy overdrive.

AC in front, BAM instant killer overdrive. Can get a lot of the smoothness and round rock tones that I had missed a bit since I sold my Marshall. Just a killer pedal.

The RC is more of a clean boost, with a bit of dirt at the top of the gain control. Really kicks it all up a notch. Pushes the amps natural overdrive nicely, and kicked in front of the AC gives a nice boost with a bit of cchime to cut through for the leads.

Still tweaking on the RC but these things are very natural and amp sounding, without losing the low end like most pedals.

Awesome pedals guys. Cool on line demos by Scott Henderson and Dean Parks (among others) on their website, www.prosoundcommunications.com

Loving these! Check them out!

Scott Peterson was speaking so highly I thought I'd give em a shot. Sure glad I did. Thanks Scott!

Cool man, they are the bomb in my book for sure. Even after trying a ton of the higher end very expensive boutique OD and boost pedals now, the Xotic stuff is indeed the shiznit. It just is more musical, they are so "pure" sounding. Everyone - and I mean everyone - that hears my rig now (clean single channel amp (Groove Tubes Soul-O 45 & THD 212 cab)) just goes off about how good it sounds.

I have gotten kudos on tone in the past here and there at gigs; it is now more like a steady stream. Either lots more guitarists are coming out or it just plain sounds better. I am kind of hoping it is the second. :D

I am like the RC driving the AC lately; but it really works the other way around too for more of a true boost. When the RC pushes the AC it just erupts though. It sounds so much bigger than most other pedals. You have to hear it to believe it!
