    Tone aficionados kept telling EHX's Mike Matthews about a pedal that had achieved a lot of buzz because it was only obtainable at an exorbitant price. That pedal was the KLON CENTAUR. A believer in bringing great tools to starving musicians, Mike tasked his trusty team to create an affordable alternative, and that is how the SOUL FOOD was cooked up.
    The SOUL FOOD delivers transparent overdrive with great touch and response. Its circuitry features boosted power rails to provide abundant headroom and increased definition. Best of all, you don't have to be a rock star to own one!
    Electro Harmonix Soul Food Overdrive Features:
    Transparent overdrive
    Boosted power rails for extended headroom and definition
    Super responsive
    Compact, rugged design
    Selectable true bypass or buffered bypass modes
    9.6DC-200 power supply included. Also runs on 9 Volt battery

    It is so nice to see a demonstration that highlights the sound of the pedal instead of the person doing the demonstration. While Mike is an incredible guitarist, these demo's show off the full range of the pedals using a variety of guitars. The fact that he inspires our playing while demonstrating pedals is just one of life's little extras. Thanks for great product demos!

    I recently bought this pedal. I love it! I have one question though. Whenever I stop playing, and the pedal is on, it's really fuzzy, just fuzz static noise. Sounds like a left a wah pedal on. Even with my guitar volume down, and on any channel on my amp, still makes noise. Any reason for this, is that part of it, and any way of stopping it? Thanks.

  • @gregorypease213
    @gregorypease213 8 лет назад

    This video sold me on the pedal, which I'm finally picking up today. But, mostly, I've found myself coming back to it again and again just to hear Mike's playing and his always spectacular tones. The man can PLAY, and squeezes beauty out of everything he plugs his guitars into.
    Thanks, Mike, for your generous inspiration. Your videos are always informative, and do a great job of demonstrating devices, but they've been so much more than that for me.

    I got that pedal too, it is quite good. I still look for the ultimate pedal, which maybe not exist? What I would like to have is an amp which is almost clean however has incredible feedback. So far I just had that experience with an old Marshall of 1967 Model JTM100. I had my guitar at normal level and this amp had my guitar with a standing sound as long as I wanted. So the sound was "standing", no decay. Amazing. However this amp was too expensive fo me... Which amp these days can deliver this in Clean Mode? I do not know anyone. Perhaps you folks do?

    @JohnnyNatrium 9 лет назад

    Is the feedback you're getting from the archtop coming just from the Soul Food or are you using any other boosting?
    I assume dialing down the treble knob on this will make it not get in the way of my own treble booster?
    I love creamy feedback but my artcore is already sensitive to it.
