I recall they did an ash one called Sienna Burst or something like that. I always liked that one. Would typically have avoided this model because it wasn't 'vintage spec' but sod it. Never bothered Jeff Beck.StratMatt wrote:

TC Electronic 'Crescendo' pedal. Based on the old Boss Slow Gear. I used a volume pedal a lot for the recording of one of the album tracks, but it's really impractical doing it live while singing. So going to give this pedal a whirl. Looks like it will do the job very well

It's not the Princeton that I was hoping for, but it's the next best thing. It's probably going to live at my work.TmcB wrote:Nice score - saw you going after thatbender wrote:
