      Definitely not more than Hendrix. Every player since 1967 that ever that has played a fuzz pedal or Univibe or an Octavia is almost entirely because of Hendrix. It started wit him. But yeah no doubt Andy has sold a lot of pedals.

    This guy's demos always sell me on gear I'm interested in. I'll always watch like 10 bad demos and talk myself out of buying something then after watching his demo I talk myself back into it and usually end up happy. Maybe due to better amp EQ or recording setup but whatever it is it works. Everything just seems less muddy and clearer on the ProGuitarShopDemos. They have also made me want a Telecaster really bad, so thanks for that. At least I can live inside the cardboard box my amp came in when I cant pay rent due to having spent all my money on gear.

    @nycLPplayer 10 лет назад

    I think the magic in Klon clones is in the output and tone knob in low gain settings which enhances your tone assuming you didn't need a buffer in the first place. I did a demo on my channel with a TS style pedal and together they balance out what the other doesn't focus on. These are a great always on pedal but don't go selling your other ODs to get this as this one is about subtleties and you will miss your old drives.

  • @urbanesoul8400
    @urbanesoul8400 8 лет назад

    I saw this pedal & came here to see what Andy would make of it. I compared it to other pedals demoed on RUclips, many also by Andy on this channel.
    After a lot of time, a lot of thought, & a great deal of comparison to similar pedals, I got one.
    Only been a month but it's awesome, easily one of favs. I'm considering getting another for crunchy vintage drive, since I'm using this one as both that & clean boost.
    It's a great lil pedal & fits in with my EHX Nano Big Muff & my MXR Custom Badass '78 Distortion as a boost or light crunchy drive sound.
    An amazing lil beast of a pedal! You did a wonderful demo of it here, Andy :-)

    I'm used to the warmth of a MojoMojo for OD on a wide range of music, but I was curious about the Soul Food after hearing great things about it, so I bought one. It's great for ballsy chords and as a lead boost, but I find it too midrangey and abrasive for general rhythm work. I'll stick with the MojoMojo as my main OD pedal for that reason. Thanks for all your great reviews Andy, and it's always a pleasure listening to your guitar playing.

    This is a great blues OD, but I prefer the EHX OD Glove. The OD Glove makes the clean channel on my 1994 SS MIM Princeton 65 sound like a Marshall Plexi. It's like the Soul Food on steroids. The OD Glove also gives you the choice between a 9v and 18v setting by utilizing an internal switch. It can do what the Soul Food does but gives you a lot more gain.

    • @northernthrifter8817
      @northernthrifter8817 9 лет назад

      There good pedals and quite similar in some ways but very different characteristics. I wasn't sure what it's get with the glove but I was sure I wouldn't regret it. The soul food is very transparent or clear you might say, and there's plenty of crisp crunchy OD.
      The glove adds more of it's own character to your tone, it's a very useful OD it can b used for boosts and solos or high British type gain amps.

They are pretty similar, but the Pedalmonsters has more oomph, and a lot more volume. Still, the Soul Food is still better than a lot of overdrive/boost pedals out there, and for the price you can't beat it!

    Ok so the JHS mod solved the low end loss...It's really amazing now.

    Thank you for this. Truly insightful, I think I'm going try the Soul Food pedal.

    People seem to not like the flavor that this pedal kicks-out... But I'd rather have something that goes crazy that I can back off of, than something flavorless. I imagine that my Texas Special neck pickup would benefit from the mid-bump that seems to have a lot of people up in arms. I'm not sure. Definitely going to demo first - so thanks for the negatron feedslime. Due diligence, in order.

    sounds great but be careful and dont drop em, their internals get messed up easily and the one i have doesnt work anymore
