Lovepedal COT50 Black Germanium with Sean Gibson of The Noise Reel

Описание: COT50 Black Germanium edition.

Named after Jimi Hendrix's most notable house of worship, the Church of Tone, Lovepedal's COT 50 serves up some serious '60s plexi vibes. With just one Bias knob to bring your overdrive from a slight breakup to a roaring grind, giving you sounds akin to a plexi outfitted with 6550 tubes. Coming in a variety of models, from germanium-based to handwired as well as your basic COT 50, there are options for everyone who loves classic vintage drive. http://www.lovepedal.com

Humbuckers - 0:01
Single coils - 1:57

Amp: Marshall JCM 900

Notes on the Bias Control:
The Bias control is used as a gain for these key reasons:•
You get to control and sweep 3 parameters on a single knob•You get a nice eq trim as your forward the bias which is good. Nobody likes their amp farting out with an absurd, overload of bass while trying to create more compression and clipping. So while forwarding the bias you do get a “trim” in bass response, but that is a good thing as you push your amp or the next section of a drive circuit

.•By forwarding the BIAS you make the transistor work harder, creating sustain, clipping and natural compression

•You get a volume bump because the circuit is being biased hotter as you advance the control which in turn pushes an already over driven amp into pure tonal bliss or another drive type circuit that succeeds it. This is great for a boost because it meets the requirement for live use and getting your tone above the rest of the band to stand out.. This is how I use the unit.. When playing with a band sometimes as a guitar player you get drowned out by everything else and when it comes time for your solo you need to jump up above the mix and cut through to be heard. The circuit enables a guitarist to STAND OUT when they need to most.

*Take note the boost side can crackle like an old Rangemaster when you adjust it as it is driving the circuit hard and there is DC across control. This noise only occurs on adjusting and is normal. If it’s too bothersome disengage the unit before adjusting or just strike a chord to soak up the DC during adjusting.
