Default NPD day for my BDAY!

Just returned the Sweet Honey and got a Black Cat Tremolo. Very cool pedal. After a few more beverages I would post a video of something I am working on.

One question- Using the effects loop, does everyone cram their pedals on their amp or get a couple longer cords and run them off? I have never used the effects loop and now I am out of real estate on top of my amp!

Lol! Great strategy! If I ever get to gigging status like this I am truly worried.

The pedal is 4.75 x 2.5 inches. Super compact and nice looking too boot. Best ran through the effects loop or it will kill on board overdrive.

Everything was fine with it, I just had a hard time knowing I spent money on something I basically already had. I could have bought any overdrive pedal and I would have done the same thing. It was kind of unfair. If I ever do need an OD I would buy that one again. Thanks for the suggestion. I would have been totally lost after seeing the huge amount of boutique pedals. I just remember a huge BOSS stomp board, now there's pedals for pedals and all sorts of gadgets!

Nice looking pedal.. Is that a blues deluxe you are running it through?
