Bigsby pedal!! This looks awesome!

[Jakedog]

I have not seen a pedal that I actually got excited about and really wanted in a LONG time. I’m mostly about stuff that functions well and is reasonably affordable. But this? I want this. I want it bad.

Don’t have one but my buddy does and I tried it. It’s got the tension feel similar to a keyboard pedal and it’s a nice detuner. It’s been out for a while now.

 

[brookdalebill]

It does look interesting!

That company redefines "out of the box" thinking. I like what they do.

 

[backporchmusic]

It does a lot more than just approximate a Bigsby.

Give us a review when you get one.
I've been wanting one for a while. Who knows, I might just pull the trigger one of these days.....

It won’t be any time soon. But I definitely will do that when it happens.

 

[Sparky472]

That is really cool.

 

[telemnemonics]

Not sureif and how it differs from the Digitech Whammy?
Aside from graphics?
Looks like it has a setting for vibrato that does not require you to wiggle the/ a stick though.

I had one for a while . To my ears it didn’t track as well as I had hoped and sounded kind of processed . It was also kind of weird feel wise to be playing a Bigsby with your foot . However , I read where other people dig it .

 

[stormsedge]

Wow.

 

[lowatter]

For what they want for them you could buy 2 real Bigsbys. To me it's more of a novelty impulse buy that I would resist and use the money elsewhere. Hell who am I kidding, I never have any descresionary money anyways. JMHOYMMV

My thinking is that with the pedal, all you would need is one for ALL of your guitars. And you wouldn't have to "mod" any of them either.

my $0.02

I thought that too but for me I couldn’t get it to sound as good as a Bigsby . It did other things well as far as creating an ambient type . Maybe I was just using it wrong

 

[trandy9850]

You know…that’s kinda cool.

 

[AngelStrummer]

Very original. Not so cheap.

 

[BigDaddyLH]

Can you set it up so that it doesn't quite go back in tune?

 

[paulblackford]

Maybe it would be less expensive if they didn't feel the need to put (what appears to be) a Bigsby facsimile on it. How about just a rocker pedal, and knock a hundred, or so, off of the price?
