Style: ToneDEQ Preamp EQ
I have no problem recommending this product. It's not perfect but it does the job. I've been a Fishman fan for a long time and started out with the early version of the Aura. They know how to create a nice UST/acoustic guitar tone at loud but pleasing levels. Ultimately this takes your guitar and makes it louder and smoother put retains the natural sound. On the 'pros' side the EQ Compression and Boost are worth the price. The preamp does a nice job to give the guitar that sparkle. The effects are simple and a little goes a long way. The output runs to the house mixer with no discernible hum. There is no real learning curve as you can pretty much take it out of the box and dial in a nice tone almost immediately. On the con side the effects are grouped with "time" and "envelope" grouped together rather than individual tweakable effects. This means you have to select either reverb or delay. Also the input and output on the back should be on the back rather than the sides. But it's a minor annoyance as for my purposes as I default to a little delay and tremolo to give the sound a little atmosphere. The buttons are nicely spaced so you can hit it on stage on fly no problem. I do recommend getting the barefoot buttons to make it more foot friendly. But with all that I play high end acoustic Martin/Gibson guitar all the time. This unit is not designed to create over the top crazy effects. The bang for the buck is when you just want to get a little smoothness, some minimal compression to the acoustic guitar with the ability to pop in some gain for a lead solo. And actually it looks cool.

Style: Fission Bass FX Pedal
Other reviews here are mixed, which is not surprising. You can't expect miracles from a pedal like this, but as some of the other reviews state, the primary purpose is for playing bass in a band with one guitarist, and when that guitarist takes a solo or is otherwise playing "thin", this pedal adds some reasonable power chord thickness underneath. I'm a "real" bassist - i.e., it's not just about playing the root all the time - but in cases where I need to provide ground cover under a solo, I alter my technique, stick with the roots of the chord structure, and use a pedal like this one. For that particular purpose, it's pretty good. Some other things: For years, I used an Akai Unibass UB1, which essentially does exactly what this does, but the UB1 died and this seems to the only like-for-like pedal out there. As other reviewers have noticed (and was true of the UB1 as well), the "overdrive" is not the best. But it's OK for live applications, especially in bar-band settings. What's really interesting to me - but I haven't tested it yet - is to keep the overdrive at zero and run the wet signal into either a guitar amp or a "real" pedal like a tube screamer. The beauty of this pedal is the ability to have separate outputs for dry (original) and wet signal. Other octavers don't provide that option, and virtually none of them allow you to add the high 5th or 4th as well. Tracking is not 100% perfect and gets a little wonky both in the high registers and when playing lightly (which was also true of the UB1). But again, for pretending to be the bassist and rhythm guitarist at the same time under a solo, the technique is to play with normal force and stick to fairly simple lines, and then it tracks just fine. All in all, it seems to be an almost exact clone of the UB1, both in terms of what it does well and what it does just meh. A bit expensive for what it is, but gets the job done.

Style: ToneDEQ Preamp EQ
I’m an old guitar player who’s been playing and gigging for over 50 years and currently play about 150 gigs per year. I’ve been through every combination of effects and amps over the years from boutique pedals to all in ones. The past 5 years have seen me move from bands to acoustic soloist playing more rocky stuff than folky and I’ve become focused on lightening my load when gigging. I use a Boss RC300 looper to build songs live on the fly with no pre recording of loops. I perform thru a Bose L1 Model 2 so it’s as good as you get on the output side. My main gigging guitars are Composite Acoustics and occasionally one of my Taylor’s. The Fishman Tonedeq leaves me wanting for nothing. I was using a Boss ME80 for the past few years and tho it was OK, it wasn’t really voiced for acoustic guitar so it never sounded quite right. All I want in life these days is a bit of reverb, sometimes some chorus, a little compression and simple EQ and this pedal has it all and nothing more. The trem is good enough that I put my Fulltone Supa-Trem Into the old gear box. All of my settings are at my feet so if I’m playing through a house PA, I can tweak on the fly. It’s very simple and the effects are very useable and not too over the top to the point of being useless. The boost is great when switching from a strumming song to fingerpicking or when adding a different tone to a layer into the looper. Within a minute of plugging this in, I knew I had found my pedal soul mate. It sounded spectacular right out of the box. The DI and 1/4” out are brilliant. I split the signal to 2 channels into my Bose Tonematch, set 1 channel for my CA guitar and the second to a different patch giving me 2 distinct signals that I can mute in or out as needed. I set the second one with a more compressed and punchy electric sound for solos over looped parts as I build the song. I keep my Tonematch on my mic stand for live performances so this is super quick and easy. My entire live has been a pursuit of “that tone” and my current rig with the Tonedeq in the middle gives me exactly what I have been dreaming of forever. If you’re serious about useable tone, this is the holy grail.
