i'll put up an in-depth review of the BSIAB2 from christer when i get all this school pains done. hehe. sound clips narin para fun.
but in the meantime, I LOVE IT. very meaty and responsive pedal. i have just learned how to get the high end brightness i want. this pedal kasi is unlike anything i've used. its like an amp wherein with 0 gain, you get 0 sound. this pedal works alone or with an OD behind it. kaya nya mag high-gain stuff, but for more metal sounds, i suggest an od before it talaga and maybe an eq after it. this pedal is very chunky and meaty talaga. full sounding. it has a very specialized voicing---MARSHALL. haha. it has a lot of SUSTAIN. with a ts-9 behind it, it sustains FOREVER. and EVER. amen. haha. i cant play van halen-y stuff. but the pedal sounds so good i try to. haha. i can honestly say this pedal is pressuring me to learn to play better coz it sounds SO GOOD. i have not used a pedal like this before and i probably wont be purchasing a 7k MI audio crunch box any time soon. kasi now i want a BSIAB2 WITH LOW, MID, HIGH controls hahaha. [gooey brown stuff]...pero christer's ross compressor clone muna...teka...amp muna kailangan ko...AAAGH! " g a s "... this pedal btw compresses your sound quite a bit, but for me, in a really musical and encouraging way. when i say encouraging, i mean, "wow, i didnt know i play this consistently" encouraging. haha.
seryoso mga dudes, christer's work is GREAT. and its a breeze dealing with him, too. yeheeess bait yan e. haha. i will be ordering a lot more stuff from christer my buddy over here and i can really tell you, the BSIAB2 is a HUGE, HUGE addition to any high-gain pedal user's arsenal.
