EBS Billy Sheehan distortion pedal
« on: February 08, 2015, 09:47:00 AM »
   I just got this and test drove it at last nights gig, all I can say is wow! It really delivers. Simple easy to use control layout, two levels pf compression or you can have it off (I used the lower level of compression). It really cuts through with no lose of low end. The band said it sounded just like Billy LOL. I don't run it all the time but I found places to push me up in the mix and put some English on my riffs. Very happy with it.

EBS convert here. Top-notch gear all around. If your pedal is anything like their other effects pedals, amps and cabs - you're gold.

Whoa, that almost looks like a more flexible version of the dead-simple Multidrive, which would be a good thing.
