I’ve been keeping an eye out at Amazon for some good deals… and it’s been rough. Not a lot going on after the Christmas sales I imagine. I did find a good deal on the Line 6 Uber Metal pedal at Amazon though. The Uber Metal lists for $179.99 and you usually see it available in the $100 range, but is currently on sale for only $91.83. You save a few bucks, and the Uber Metal does ship with FREE super saver shipping. I wasn’t able to find any ‘good’ demos of this pedal on youtube (I’ll spare you), but it seems the Uber Metal is similar to the MXR M116 Fullbore Metal pedal (which is also on sale for $91.73). Has built in noise gate and EQ adjustments to get that super scooped mid metal tone.

Here is the official description on the Line 6 Uber Metal:

So much gain, so little time. The high-gain model in the ToneCore pedal line, Uber Metal brings you massive amounts of gain in one tiny, tough package. You can chose from some of the best Line 6 high-gain tones including Metal, Pulverize, and Insane. Also included with the Uber Metal is a built-in selectable noise gate, and scoop control for massive tonal contouring.

Again, the Line 6 Uber Metal pedal is currently on sale for only $91.83 at Amazon.com

This morning I came across a nice deal on the Line 6 Space Chorus at Amazon. Apparently this pedal is no longer in production and isn’t commonly available any more.  When it was in production and available you would see it new for about $70.00 – $80.00. The Line 6 Space Chorus lists at $165.99, and is on sale for only $56.58 at Amazon and ships with FREE super saver shipping.

Here is the official description of the Line 6 Space Chorus:

The Line 6 ToneCore Space Chorus effects pedal has 3 killer models, all based on analog effects: Chorus, Tri, and Vibrato. Tweak your sound with adjustable speed, shape, and depth while controlling the rate with tap tempo. Stereo I/O.

ToneCore pedals consist of a ToneDock base–in stereo or mono–and interchangeable effects modules that snap in and out, allowing you to change effects without rearranging your pedalboard. The ToneDock is powered by a 9V battery or optional DC-1 adapter.

Here is a video I found posted by thommc:

A few months back we did a demo of the T-Rex Twister II chorus /flanger and it’s a great sounding pedal. The Twister II was created to replace the original Twister – version 1 (correct me if that’s not the case). Everyone knows what to expect when it comes to T-Rex – quality in build and tone. I was excited today to see a great deal on the T-Rex Twister Chorus/Flanger at Amazon. This pedal lists for $399.00, and is usually available for $299, but is currently on sale for a crazy price of $120.16! That’s $278.84 off of list price! At the time of this post there were only 2 left in stock. This price might jump up when it gets down to 1, so it’ll be a race to pick up this deal, but wanted to post it regardless. This pedal also ships with FREE super saver shipping!.

Here is the official description of the T-Rex Twister Chorus/Flanger:

The Twister chorus and flanger effects pedal from T-Rex Engineering is for guitarists who seek a shimmering, rich, vibrant, swirling chorus/flanger tone.

A chorus effect brings your sound to life, adding a dynamic vibrancy to the sonic texture of any song you use it on. But a chorus and a flanger?

Although they sound quite different, these 2 classic effects are so closely related that a single pedal can produce them both. T-Rex deviates from the usual path with The Twister and builds 2 separate units inside a single stompbox. While the chorus adds sparkle and shine to your sound, the flanger puts a funky twist on both chords and single-note lines. Give The Twister a try and discover how this T-Rex pedal is the wild and weird effect you’ve been seeking.

The Twister pedal is packed with features that make sure you get chorus or flange your way. The Twister has a mono output for running through an amp on stage and stereo outputs for the studio or live stereo setups. In chorus mode, the light/heavy switch lets you quickly switch between 2 classic variants of the chorused sound, while the brilliant Tone control lets you take some of the top off for a more subtle effect.

Again, the T-Rex Twister Chorus/Flanger is on sale for only $120.16 at Amazon!

The Seymour Duncan SFX-06 Paranormal Bass EQ Direct Box is currently out of production, but there is a great deal going on at Amazon for this pedal. This pedal lists for $199, and is usually available for $139, but is currently on sale for only $49.99 at Amazon! At the time of this posting there were only four in stock, so if you’re thinking about picking this up, you’ll need to jump on it.

Here is the official description of the Seymour Duncan SFX-06 Paranormal Bass EQ Direct Box:

While passive DIs proved to be quite useful for recording bass or sending bass to a console for live performance, people began to notice a decrease in overall response and punch. That’s when active DI’s came to the rescue. But how many are tailored to the response of a bass guitar? The Seymour Duncan SFX-06 Paranormal Bass EQ DI is, featuring a three-band active EQ that’s optimized for bass along with a contour switch for slapping styles.

Seymour Duncan SFX-06 Paranormal Bass EQ DI, First Take:
Active DI with three-band EQ optimized for bass
Dedicated contour switch for slapping styles
Solid construction, balanced XLR out and ground lift

DI with active three-band EQ

The three-band EQ allows you to dial in your tone in any room, sculpting your lows, mids, and highs quickly and easily. So, along with performing the normal functions of a DI, you get the benefit of adding an active EQ to your bass without having to make any modifications to your instrument. The EQ provides ±12dB boost and cut for each band, which have center frequencies at 30Hz for deep lows, 650Hz to contour the mids, and 5.2kHz for presence, clarity and attack.

Proprietary Slap Contour switch for happy slapping

The SFX-6 also features Seymour Duncan’s proprietary Slap Contour switch, which applies an additional preset EQ curve. As the name implies, this is a dedicated switch for slapping styles, but it also adds an extra dimension to fingerstyle or pick playing. Slap Contour gives you a 6dB boost at 80Hz to bring out the bottom and cuts 6dB at 650Hz to reduce the mud that can occur in the low mids. The result is a solid low end and more room for attack. By using it with the 3-band EQ, you can bring out more attack information if needed, as well as extra bottom below 80Hz.
Solid construction and hum elimination

Built like a tank with a 16-guage steel chassis and powered by either a single 9V battery or a regulated DC power supply, the SFX-06 features a balanced XLR output with ground lift to eliminate electromagnetic interference and AC-hum. Between that and its active electronics you can drive longer cable runs to a feed a front-of-house mixing board or a recording console without noise or signal loss.

Again the Seymour Duncan SFX-06 Paranormal Bass EQ Direct Box is on sale for only $49.99!

I just came across a nice deal on the MXR MC401 Line Driver at Amazon. This is the Custom Audio Electronics (CAE) version. Quality build on the enclosure and the circuit is tight, as you would expect from CAE!

This pedal is also available with FREE super saver shipping. At the time of this post, there were only 5 in stock. Usually when the stock number gets down to 1 or 2, the price will jump back up, so if you’re looking for a line driver.. this is a great opportunity to get one at a great price.

Here is the official description of the MXR MC401 Line Driver:

MXR and Custom Audio Electronics founder Bob Bradshaw – two names that have shaped the tones of the world’s greatest guitarists – join forces to bring you a dynamic new line of pedals. The Boost/Overdrive and Boost pedals are the first offerings in the series produced by MXR, featuring the unique sonic stamp of legendary designer Bob Bradshaw. Since 1980, CAE’s innovative pedal designs were made in limited quantities only for his select clientele. When it was time to bring these pedals to the masses, there was only one name he could trust to deliver the same quality and standards that his customers demand – MXR. Available only from Dunlop Manufacturing, Inc., the world’s leader in analog pedal technology. MC-401 Boost/Line Driver The MC-401 is simple in design but superbly effective in solving a variety of mis-matched line level and signal conditioning problems that can occur when combining effects.

It can also be used as an ultra-clean boost for solos or to drive effects for more dynamics and sensitivity.
