    www.gak.co.uk/e...
    Electro Harmonix Crayon Overdrive is an incredibly usable instrument that gives you control over frequencies you can't normally tweak. The independent Bass and Treble controls open up the possibilities for your drive tone, letting you compensate for particularly trebly/bassy guitars as well as shape the sound of other pedals when layered up. The Crayon meets all of the hallmarks of great EHX pedals, its eye-catching design, robust construction and great tone are what we've come to expect from such a great brand.
    The Crayon Overdrive is true bypass and is powered by a 9V DC power supply.

    With the gain backed right off, the volume at 3 o'clock and the EQ knobs just before midnight into a high gain amp it does that TubeScreamer thing where it makes rhythm sounds super tight. It appears to have a similar mid hump. Bass control is really useful in dialing in just how tight or loose the low end feels, and the amount of clean boost available is ludicrous. Rolling on the pedal's gain into moderately dirty amp brings out some very grungy tones without getting quite as mashed up as a full on fuzz.

    I got this pedal today and am blown away with all the sounds I can get out of it. Excellent demo!

      Benjamin Kerkhoff How does your pedal sound when compared with this vid? is it similar? which amp are you using? All the other vids about this one sound like cap but this one is pretty sweet. I was looking fora J Rockett The Dude and stumbled on this one..sound pretty similar for a fraction of the cost

      Joel Martinho I used it through my Tiny Terror, setting the amp up more on the clean side, that way I had "2 channels". Great sound, the bass/treble knobs are a awfully useful since the tiny terror only has a tone knob. I also used it as a boost sometimes 😃 Got great rock tones. Ran it through my vox ac30 with great results then again I can put anything in front of that amp and its tonal bless. I could literally use every setting on this pedal (Boost, light distortion, heavy distortion etc) I have also ran it through my VHT Classic 6, set clean (reminds me of fender clean tones). Very simple amp with volume and tone only. Used the crayon as a boost and light gain for a bluesy tone. Most videos don't do this little guy a damn bit of justice, this video probably being the best of the bunch. I decided to take a chance and found it to be absolutely worth it. I guess I could record some samples if you wanted, if interested just message me. Hope this helps and keep picking!

      Joel Martinho through a tube amp it doesn't sound thin like it does in this video. This pedal through a tube amp is really fun tonally and functionally. I forgot to mention my guitars i used. Gibson Les Paul Studio Deluxe, PRS SE semi hollow body, Classic Player Jazzmaster, and a MIM Fender start with Tex Mex pups in the neck and middle, and a Seymour Duncan lil 59' in the bridge.

    I love this O D pedal it's sounds so natural sound.like a peavey classic 30 or a lynyrd skynyrd tone which I've been trying to get for a long time . I just bought one,can't wait to use it...

    Why the uncommon amp? it makes it hard to tell what the pedal really sounds like through a standard tube amp like most of us use.

    I just bought this pedal but to my surprise, it's pretty noisy when the volume is at 9 o'clock, is that normal? I've seen plenty of videos but I never noticed any noise at all so I don't know what it could be, help please.

    • @aaronabubo
      @aaronabubo 8 лет назад +1

      +LeiAherne7 The JHS is supposed to sound like plugging straight in to an old recording console. Kind of an overdriven pre-amp kind of vibe.
      This one seems to be a clone of Paul C.'s Timmy.
      TL;DR: They are alike in name alone.

    You're more showing off your fast licks, and not so much letyting us hear what the pedal actually sounds like... slow down... give us some long tasty examples of what the tyhing can do... I'm not really impressed with your playing... lot's of flash and no sould... my opinion

  • @Missglamrus1
    @Missglamrus1 7 лет назад +1

    But of course you do realise that these are both different pedals, one is a 69 and the other a 76 so the sounds are going to be tonally different, why didn't you demo both pedals?

    you can use a digital EMULATOR for an amp, but thats NOT an amp..Fair enough, lots of people plug their guitars into computers, but do most of those people use lots of pedals ? I thought that crap was all built into those programs OR that, "pedals" can be downloaded as "apps"..not much future in actual pedal sales there.."lets allow these custom shop single coils"......allow them to what ? A DIGITAL EMULATOR could make them sound like Black rhino farting noises produced by a polyphonic Moog synthesizer.
    This whole demo , is useless
