Howard is pretty awesome! Thanks for your comment!

Oh my freaking god. Iam an open G player and have been struggling at gigs to get " that tone" . I ordered this 8 minutes after this video! You sir are a genius!

Damn dude, you sold me on one of these. I really don't recall hearing another pedal like it. I imagine it would also do a damn fine "Mississippi Queen" tone.

I love the phrase "harmonic haze".

Don't buy this pedal, it's impossible to stop playing after you try it and it's very frustrating that this thing sounds too good at any settings so you don't know wich setting use first, and then when you stack it with other overdrives and fuzzes the situation becomes even worst, because those conbinations sounds also unbeliveble...hehe, this thing ended my dirt pedal quest, ah, what a relief! Thank you catalinbread!!!

I second your remark! In fact, all their Foundation Overdrive pedals deliver. BIG TIME. It's nearly impossible to stop playing because it sounds so Fn good. RAH, DLS Red, Sabbra, Naga Viper. Any combo played through my SG, Les Paul, Strat, or ASAT Tribute is, well, 🤯🤯🤯

I love the sound that you get out of it. So many pedals that I want from you guys, so little money...

Very cool ACE strap Howard! Killer playing and pedal too.

You convinced me. I ordered it and I love it.

I'd think you'd want to put a footswitch on that thing to go between the gain options, cool pedal 😎

Niiiiice. Can't wait for the full rundown! Howard, can you do a comparison video showcasing the SFT, WIIO, RAH, and 5F6?

The strat / neck clip finally sold me on the pedal. Exactly the hard-edged overdrive I'm looking for on my jazzmaster with flats. All of the stones/qotsa in demo's made the pedal (and the ampeg in general) sound very bright and fizzy.

i recently bought one and it is unbelievable. i should have bought this years ago.

most excellent demo!

I love this pedal so much.

I will be getting one of these Friday!

this guy is awesome!!

awsome freakin pedal! way to go CATALINBREAD!

Victor Capo is the best there is. Nice to every single detail in your work Catalinbread! love the artifacts you make

Thank you for making this pedal. I have been using the original model for about 5 years and it is a integral part of the guitar and bass sound on all of my videos. Really interested in the new model!

OK, just that opening riff, that is SO much better than the old video, and done with a Tele right instead of a Flying V. This is a tone anyone would be proud to play.

Wow, that Strat on the neck pickup is pretty close to my ideal tone. Just needs a little more treble. Actually, everything in the lower gain mode sounds fantastic, to me. I think an SFT will be my next Foundation pedal.

great sounds by the way.

I have the previous version and LOVE it. I leave it on almost all the time. I love pedals that sound great with all my instruments and the SFT definitely does (even banjo!) I was wondering if a comparison of the 2016 next to the last version would be something you guys are considering doing. Wouldn't have to be a long video, just a "hey, here's how they're different" kinda thing.

I love that pedal

Late to the party as I have only learned of this pedal recently....like it alot!

Hello Howard Gee!! I(and bassists everywhere) would still love to hear a bass demo of the SFT. Preferably through some sort of common solid state/class D tube hybrid amp and say a single 15.

Fantastic : -)

I love the idea and the stones/stoner pun! Well done. I also love the fact that you didn't include any QOTSA riffs (even though I guess many guitarists know Homme used VT40s a lot & recorded them in the first 3 QOTSA albums). An idea for the future SFT video is to include Wipers songs, since Greg Sage was also a famous user in songs like Over the Edge etc).

Very cool! I just realised that they came from Portland and you guys are based in Portland, right? The slightly Hiwatt-y high end distorted sizzle can be heard in many Wipers songs. You can see his Ampeg in two photos: the cover of the Wipers 3 CD box set (img12.nnm.me/a/d/a/c/0/756d6504d27ea33c07d3a6d6b75.jpg) and on the Live 1984 LP (1.bp.blogspot.com/_1FfeEq4IS8I/SR3WpiPHSnI/AAAAAAAACkA/M6b_zuY7y58/s400/1.jpg). I would LOVE to hear a few Wipers riffs, anything from Over the Edge or basically anything you like.

I wanted the last version of this but now I'm sold on this as I'm a blues stones kinda guy. But every now and again I like to riff rock the shit outta my amp.

Damn man that high gain just melted my face off,I wonder what it would sound like with the Naga Viper running into it.

Howard the god!! Man, if the only thing he did for Catalinbread was demo their pedals, it'd be worth his salary, 'cause after listening to him I'm ready to buy them all. Like this one, I want it! Does anyone know what the second piece he played was, after Brown Sugar?

@strat3

8 жыл бұрын

That was just something I made up! Same open G tuning as Brown Sugar!

awesome stuff. maybe i missed it but what amp did you use (speaker too?) or how did you record these parts? thanks!

The SFT really sounds like a great, straight-ahead power overdrive for those who like rock. But as Howard demonstrates, the pedal has a lot of range to match the range of gain.

What amp are you using and what, if any other pedals are you using in this video? Sounds great!

❤️

Will you guys be doing a bass demo of this pedal??

Long live QOTSA and KYUSS!!!

Man i'd really like that poster behind Howard (or at least a JPG of it)

Hi so I bought this pedal last April. Love the sound but there is one main downfall. When I'm turning the volume up of my amp or adding gain on the pedal, there is a continuous 'hum'. I've tried different amps and I have humbucker pickups. Also I power my pedal with a 9V battery. Do you people at Catalinbread know how to solve this problem?

Hey! what amp/amps are being used? Looks like a fender classic reissue of some sort. Amp choice and rough settings are important when demoing a product that emulates a particular amp. Or am I wrong? I love you guys.

+Howard Gee (kittycaster) Thanks for the reply. I'm looking forwrd to the bass demo. Hopefully you will use some sort of mid quality hybrid rig. I want to know if this will boost the headroom and overall dynamic range of my Orange BT500 that I play thru the matching Orange SP212. My current fave bass rig is a 70's V4 thru that 212 but I try and save it for recording because its a back breaker.

Any chance you guys could build a nice vintage transformer 18 volt power supply to go with this? Dunlop’s 18 volt modern transformer is noisy! I’m sticking with my Maxon 9 volt transformer power supply until then. This pedal is awesome!

Holy sh!t!!!

Can this be used as a direct into PA mixer without an Amp type platform?

Hello friends! Could anybody help me with the answer… Is there any serious difference between mk I and mkII if I don’t high gain mod? Just can’t find enough videos about first version of this pedal…

Anyone use this conjunction with the Sansamp VT Bass? SFT up front and VT at the end of the chain.

Still waiting for the bass demo! C'mon guys :)

I was going to get an Orange or15 but shit im just going to get this as it has all the grunge one could handle. To top it off its got that perfect overdrive I wouldnt have got with the Orange at least not like this.

What does SFT stand for?

I think that you mean you don't want everyone to think you can only play classic rock (Like the Rolling stones) with the stoner mode. (I LOVE CLASSIC ROCK AND THE BLUES THOUGH!)

I have to admit, February 29, 2916 is gonna be a pretty long wait ;)

Every time I tell another musician about my quest for early 70's Stones/Faces tone they kind of glaze over and don't have much to say other than get a Tele and a Twin. This is a revelation of the highest order. Was beginning to think I was being too OCD about this but...
