Dub-T-123 Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 I watched the video from PRS and these seem to be excellent sounding pedals. This Philip guy just sucks at playing guitar so I assume I won’t gain anything from his opinion or demonstration if I’m gonna be honest As a pedal geek the first thing that I notice is that the physical layout was poorly designed. Putting the knobs so close to the foot switch is an easily avoidable problem that screams “lack of experience” or maybe worse The flanger seems like a really fun pedal to me. I could get into that one. Don’t wanna look at the price tag though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saturn Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 I wasn't blown away by the sound of any of those pedals. They were all very subtle IMO. But I did enjoy the review for some reason. I liked listening to his philosophy of how he sets pedals and amps. Especially the Compressor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ugh where to begin… I don’t want to be mean but it’s a given that Philip McKnight is not going to make gear sound good… He is not a decent player and he’s extremely bad at using amps and effects. I didn’t watch the video but any philosophy or whatever that he’s got is obviously crap because listen to the results 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He surely wasn't anything special as a player. I didn't think he was horrible, I assumed he was just playing simple stuff and focussing more on the pedals. But after rewatching, I was kinda thinking why is he doing palm-mutes while demoing the flanger? I'd like to actually hear the effect but it's hard when all the notes are choked off.

Pinch Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 (edited) I wasn't appalled by his playing... I want Steven Seagal to demo pedals, me. Edited October 12, 2022 by Pinch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coincidently, I'm probably going to take a trip over to PRS in Stevensville this weekend. My PRS amp died on me several months ago and no one else seems to be able to fix it. I just picked it up from Bill's today and it cost me $45 to have him tell me he couldn't fix it. 😞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It started by slowly going out on me in middle of a gig about 6 months ago. That gig was about 1 mile away from PRS factory. A guy I play with looked at it and tested the tubes, and said two 12AX7 tubes were bad and left those two spots open for me to replace them. Well that didn't work and now the amp won't even power on. So I finally took it to Bill's Music and guy there said this: 1 Service ELECTRONIC REPAIR 45.00 NO POWER Tested all fuses and tubes. Has a problem with DC tube heater voltage. No schematic available. Return to PRS for repair. NOT REPAIRED 45.00 SUBTOTAL Edited October 13, 2022 by saturn additional info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merciful-evans Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Well I didn't watch the vid because pedals don't interest me The remarks about Phil McKnights playing is interesting though. I can only think that Saturn was right about him concentrating on the 'demo'. The pedals are being evaluated rather than his playing. I've seen a great deal of Phil and think his playing is fine. He himself would admit though, that he is first and foremost a bass player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
