  • The new bass whammy is a fun pedal

    I primarily purchased this pedal for the 5th up and octave up effects in order to fill out sound when the guitar player in my band solos. The tone is a bit too sterile and thin, and it needs separate eq and overdrive to really get what I want, but in general it does the job pretty well. The octave down sounds and tracks very good, and the detune settings are really nice. It's hard to say if I recommend it or not, since there probably aren't a lot of bass players who could use it, but if you are interested in adding some pitch shifting to your bass tone, the new bass whammy works really well.

  • Great expression pedal for bass

    Great way to add new sound textures to your bass playing. Pedal is intuitive and easy to use. The term "Whammy" pedal is a little misleading for those who assume this would operate like a tremolo bar. This is actually a pitch shifter that you can modulate with the pedal for effect, but doesn't sound that well when using it that way. You either want the pedal flat down or all the way up depending on the tone you want to use for a particular section of the song. Otherwise, you can add some additional color by using a wah pedal in conjunction with it, which gives it some interesting effects. While I probably would not use for most live situations, it is a lot of fun to experiment and record with! For the price, it was worth it to have yet another tool in the box for some very unique sounds.

  • Can you say Dynamic!?

    This pedal is so cool. It ads so much fullness to my sound, and does so many cool things. Drop tune, whammy effect, and so many different tones! It's not a distortion pedal, so if you have an old tube style amp with no gain you'll need another pedal to ad crunch or fuzz to your sound . I'm still figuring out all the cool things this pedal can do. I'm a huge fan of Jack White, the Digitech Whammy, and the Big Muff (for distortion) were the two primary pedals he used for ten years in The White Stripes playing through a '65 Twin Reverb Fender amp and often a 1960s Silverton amp. This pedal sounds amazing through my Fender deluxe reverb '65 reissue tube amp for a funky vintage vibe, as well as my 1984 Marshall JCM 800 4212 tube amp when I'm in the mood for serious hard rock and grunge. I dont know if Jerry Cantrell used one of these or not on Jar of Flies, but i can get a sound reminiscent of that amaaaaazing album with the Digitech. With the gain boost on the Marshall this pedal really gets the guitar sounding full and when you're bending, the high notes REALLYscream!!! I recommend also getting an Ibanez Tube Screamer for your pedal board (for milder, more clear distortion) to compliment the sound of the Digitech Whammy pedal. This pedal is a must have for me. I use it daily!

  • Perfect.

    I purchased this pedal because it's one of my favorites I used to have one back in my early college years but sold it along with my Dunlap 535q in order to buy a plane ticket. So I decided to take this one up and I am so happy that I did. This pedal is used by a lot of innovative guitarists and for good reason it offers a lot of possibility for your sound.

  • #1 pedal on my board

    I play saxophone with effects pedals and this is numero uno for jams. Absolutely amazing. Been using this bad boy since 2011. Quite possibly the only useful effects pedal Digitech makes, and it definitely makes up for all their other garbage. This thing rocks.

  • Amazing

    I am using it on an acoustic and it's doing wonders. No funny sounding pitch changes like some of the other pedals in the market. So far so good and loving it.

  • versatile pedal

    This is everything to do with pitch manipulation. It changes keys. It serves as a wammy. It is great for harmonies. I realize I will have to incorporate it in future song arrangements because it is slightly difficult to use on the fly. I would not reccomend it if you have a pedal foot print issue because it takes up a fair amount of real estate.

  • Limitless possibilities

    This pedal is amazing. It tracks great and the pedal response is on point. The octive cords are all covered. The dive bomb feature is awesome. Paired with an envelope filter or a synth there's no sound you can't achieve.
