Really comparing a 5K to 13K guitar with an $800 Mexico Roadhouse, Kinda glad you did because the sound difference is not worth the price difference Plus a Maple neck to a Rosewood. Come on guys... The roadhouse sounder just as good...Plus the earlier version 2013 has Custom Shop texas Specials with a Rosewood Neck would sound just as Good as the Cruz

I had the cherry red N2 ( "padauk" ) it looked awesome, sounded really great, the BillLawrence had a creamy screaming upper freq range... but the overall build quality of the guitar was utter crap. :)) all the hardware fell apart, neck was twisted, fretwork was shitty... absolutely unreliable instrument. My ultimate dream is still a padauk N4 ( and a Ibanez Jem floral ) :D

I have a 1969 fretless wonder given to me by my father before he passed in 2004. Just sitting for the past 21 years. Until I seen these demo videos, I was considering having it refretted. Not now.

*Its not more gain, its LOW MID that is needed for the pedal. You will be needing a graphic EQ. And that goes for ALL of these pedals that emulate amps*

a better test would have been the pedal into a different kind of amp maybe a solid state amp vs the blue channel on the EVH. why would you need the pedal if you already have the amp. good video tho, i enjoyed it

I have a 68 Paul Fretless Wonder which I bought new in 1968. Same impression as you guys about the low frets....particularly after playing these same frets for over 40 years! Wondering if the Custom Reissue is as heavy? the very first night I played mine, the strap popped off and the Paul nut caught a piano on the way down and sheared the G string tunner off! Managed somehow to play at least for two more hours without a G string. Truly enjoyed your video! Haley

Yup, I just did a pedal shootout in my basement a couple of days ago (through a Marshall DSL100H and two 2x12 cabs with Vintage 30's). Tried out Friedman BE OD (Sounded fantastic!), a Sinvertek Drive N5 (Sounded even better), a Suhr Riot Reloaded, Behringer GDI21 (Great for Metal!), and a few other lower budget but good sounding pedals and nothing could beat the MXR GT-OD to my ears. Amazing pedal!!!

Subscribed before I even watch this... I didn't realize that I need to watch this. I owned an MXR Zakk Wylde overdrive, and traded it a few years ago. Not long g after, I regretted it. Then I started hearing that there was an internal switch on the ZW pedal, that, basically, switched the circuitry to a GT-OD. Well, since I no longer own a ZW, I cant confirm if that is true or not, BUT... I am very interested in hearing a comparison of the two. Let the show begin... 👍👍👍
