Phil X has to be one of the most coolest and down to earth people around. The Duellist has struck me as a great pedal to have. 🤔

@Chord_The_Seeker 2 жыл бұрын

The Duellist is my favorite pedal! Definitely get one if you can. The left side, which is a Bluesbreaker style circuit, makes an incredible boost for high gain amps. Most people use a Tubescreamer to boost high gain sounds, but to me that makes the amp sound thin and nasal. The Bluesbreaker makes it sound thick and fat while giving it a lot more saturation.

@gregcharles999 2 жыл бұрын

I bought the Duellist 2 or 3 years ago, I could throw all the others in the bin after that purchase, its got it all so do go for it if you can wait a bit.

@baimun 2 жыл бұрын

Phil's comment about boosting levels for a pick slide... that is exactly why my boost of choice is a TC Spark Mini. You can click the footswitch like normal and play an entire solo... or... if you need a quick fill, HOLD the button down, play the lick, and when you release the button, the boost switches back off. Dual function button! I also replaced the little knob up top with a massive black knob that I can dial up and down with my foot.

@leeallen2301 2 жыл бұрын

Yeah the spark mini is my solo boost pedal too. I have mine in the loop so it just increases the volume when I need without adding any more compression or gain to the front end.
