Jaicen Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I'm guessing it's the only one that sold in any real numbers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Also Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 This little beauty arrived today Now I need a Kaoss Pad but it seems pretty hard to find nowadays... It's my 3rd Manson, after my MA-2 EVO and my DR-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted March 21, 2018 Author Share Posted March 21, 2018 This little beauty arrived today Now I need a Kaoss Pad but it seems pretty hard to find nowadays... It's my 3rd Manson, after my MA-2 EVO and my DR-1 Nice. What drone number have you got? And do you mean the KP2? You can always get the KP3 (apparently they've come out with a new version of it too) but it doesn't have the same synths. The KP3 is definitely a better unit though. I'm guessing it's the only one that sold in any real numbers? Yeah that's highly possible. I was tempted by that 50th anniversary MS 500 at one point, but wasn't sure about the pickups (which I recall are super low output) and what tonal characteristics quandong has...

Bs Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Is it just me or is that XY pad huge? They're not that square usually are they? Or am I imagining things? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can always get the KP3 (apparently they've come out with a new version of it too) but it doesn't have the same synths. The KP3 is definitely a better unit though. I bought Drone #88 (my birth year). I'm looking for the KP2 (which I think is the one with the SMBH solo effect), but it's really really hard to find. Is it just me or is that XY pad huge? They're not that square usually are they? Or am I imagining things? It's my first XY guitar so I can't compare it to others, but I think it has the same size as the other models, I might be the picture tricking your eyes haha.

Cider Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Btw Bs, I have a VH4-2 coming in the mail tomorrow. Will let you know how it is. Apparently it can handle channels 3 & 4 of the VH4 (instead of just Channel 3 on the original VH4 pedal) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bs Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Ooh, yes please! I've actually been thinking about ordering one myself, but I wanted to wait until I'd got the new guitar here first. I wasn't sure how much the import charges were going to be. Now it's here, once I've got used to playing it a bit, I'll be thinking about going for the pedal too, so any feedback you have would be great.

I thought you'd at least hold off for another year or so, but I guess I've had too much of an influence on you. Must have been from when I got my hands on your first custom that time... but I can't resist grabbing an extra thick 25.5" scale wooden shaft when I have the opportunity...

daveno1 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Let me know how the vh-2 is please! Was considering one but not sure id take that over a kemper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bs Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Definitely the pedal. Speaking of things that never get used, I should really think about selling my Loop Station pedal at some point. I bought it years back when I had more free time, and then have just never really been able to dedicate the time needed to learn how to use it properly. Don't know if anyone here would be interested though. It's huge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveno1 Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 I have the vh-4 pedal i like it but its always on back of mind its not the real thing. How much did you pay for your vh-2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stocking Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Man seing the gorgeous mansons here makes me hope one day I get one. My hope is for a DR-1 with sustainiac, if not I'll just settle for the MBC-1 with a sustainiac. seriously tho, that sparkle finish looks fantastic!

Cider Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 But... QOTSA.... I still have the PDF-2 and the cheap Fulltone clone! And all the other stuff I've been talking to you about. Let me know how the vh-2 is please! Was considering one but not sure id take that over a kemper Ooh, yes please! I've actually been thinking about ordering one myself, but I wanted to wait until I'd got the new guitar here first. I wasn't sure how much the import charges were going to be. Now it's here, once I've got used to playing it a bit, I'll be thinking about going for the pedal too, so any feedback you have would be great. So far, I like how it sounds into a 6L6 power amp sim on the Ampli-Firebox. It's not a very versatile pedal though - you cannot get any cleans from it on either channel even on low gain settings. The high gains sound great, but I don't think the knobs are that touch-sensitive. It is a $330 pedal though - a lot cheaper than a Kemper. Channel 2 (4 on the real amp) is more aggressive, whereas channel 1 is tighter. I think Matt only uses channel 4 on his VH4 though? I have the vh-4 pedal i like it but its always on back of mind its not the real thing. How much did you pay for your vh-2? I have no idea what the real amp is like, so that's one less problem I have I paid about $270 for mine - it's a demo unit + Reverb's 15% St. Patrick's Day sale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And all the other stuff I've been talking to you about. https://reverb.com/item/10989631-fulltone-ultimate-octave Buy that. It's from 2005, so it's not too far off from the 'correct' one and might have the magic transistors too. So far, I like how it sounds into a 6L6 power amp sim on the Ampli-Firebox.

Channel 2 (4 on the real amp) is more aggressive, whereas channel 1 is tighter. I think Matt only uses channel 4 on his VH4 though? I don't think it's supposed to emulate any of the clean sounds on the VH4. And MB mostly uses channel 3 on the actual amp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
