Just want to get an idea how you guys use your hellbilly. I know Tas and a few of you others have one and love it. Fuzz side mostly? treble boost side?
gracias,
johnny

Hey Johnny, I've been using mine mostly for fuzz duties but I've noticed the longer the gig goes the more I'm moving that tone control towards 12 oclock. I usually end up with it around 11 by the end of the night and I usually start around 9 oclock. It's a pretty fat sound and likes to be loud. I'm using it for dirtier fuzz/overdrive sounds ala Lenny Kravitz, Van Halen (early) Cream, bla bla etc etc. I don't think I've even tried it above 12 oclock on a gig yet. (treble booster/range master style) Might try that tonight. I still think this is one of the best value for money pedals around...and you've gotta love the smokin' Hog ;D

glad you're still diggin' that 'billy tas!
man, you're gaining some momentum towards celebrity status... I gotta try to keep up!
johnny - the 'billy is great with a Ghia... use it however you want (treble booster, fuzz, or a cross between the two) - there ain't a bad sound in that box!
Ya know, I might pick up another hellbilly... I miss that pedal. The Java Boost is a little sweeter, but the 'billy cut better and had more clarity. Yeah, I really miss the 'billy!

I must have found a sweet spot or maybe the room just really liked it because it sounded AMAZING last night. Best value for money guitar investment I think I've made. The Route 66 LOVES this pedal.

Sometimes I miss ole 'billy... Yep, it's a great pedal, and FANTASTIC bang for the buck! whispers: and another unreal bang for the buck: Danelectro Fab Distortion $15 brand new w/ free shipping from music123.com... or maybe I'm just trippin' and losin' it.
