Next is an Ibanez FL9 analog flanger. It sounds nice, but it’s fairly polite and clean, and so far hasn’t grabbed me by the throat and yelled “Keep me!” However, it’s important to remember that an effect that sounds very distinctive and noticeable and cool will also usually grow old very very fast when you use it too much, and in some cases if the effect is dramatic enough, too much can equal “twice”. So we’ll see how this one fares through the recording process, how much it gets used, and what it gets used for before deciding whether or not to sell it on. Also important, just like using a synth, it can sometimes take a while to find an effect’s sweet spot. But, sometimes you never find a spot you like within its settings, so eventually you trade it for something else. The most important thing the FL9 will need to do to stay around is find some way to distinguish itself from the digital flanger models we have in the Kurzweil KSP8 and some of our plugins, because currently my impression is that it’s lacking the distinctive character necessary for me to go out of my way to use it.
It accurately emulates the unique hypnotizing Doppler effect of a real rotating speaker cabinet, recreating the late 60's/early 70's psychedelic swirl that many players find elusive - like that dripping Phase-Chorused tone that made Jimi�s background sounds so epic. The unit includes a "Fast/Slow" switch which gradually speeds up or slows down the speed like a real Leslie unit. A midi socket is included for external control. All in one AC powered pedal!
Acoustic guitar "In Case" design. Your valuable acoustic guitar can safely be shipped with a Rock Hard Road Case protecting it. Upon arrival at your destination, you can carry the guitar in it's original case.
The new guitar range case from Hardcase with a unique ‘bean bag’ internal support system which moulds itself to the shape of the instrument. This new concept provides full support around the body, under and around the neck and cushions the head and machine heads but with a tough exterior shell that would stand up to the ‘knocks and bangs’ of a working environment.
