California TrueTone : Soaring Santana

As I put in another review, of the British version of this pedal - it amazes me how one pedal can perform pretty much like a full amp nowadays. This won't give you the headroom of certain California amps and it won't give you all the nuances - but then again, it doesn't cost a few thousand pounds and you can get an approximation of the sound in the comfort of your own living room. Without being served with a noise abatement order. 'Santana On A Stick' is how I'd describe this. One of the super-talented musicians who you can identify from just one note - this pedal will *not* make you super-talented, but by gum you'll get a lot closer to having the amp tone of the dude. For the price? Tremendous. For stadium gigs? Get yourself the real deal. For home and pub use? Save yourself the cost of a small car and buy this pedal. It's not noisy and it'll make your guitar sing. Amen.
