Anyone using this pedal? I might be getting rid of mine. I don't really have much use for a clean boost. I have an Xotic BB for adding dirt to the Bassman or tightening it up, I might also use it when I get the SL. I havd a modded Sparkle Drive for boosting leads, but haven't found a use for the RC yet. I was going to use it as an EQ to tighten rhythms but I just EQ differently now to solve that.

Maybe I could use it in the loop for a solo boost but the Sparkle Drive up front seems to do enough to get the tone about the band.

Anyone find a good use for it? How about the AC? I was going to use the AC for a solo boost....but the Sparkle rules for this due to the clean blend.
 
I think you mean RC Boost, right rich?

I use mine mainly with my B rig - I'll put it after my distortion pedal, to boost level and add some compression.

I really don't have any use for it with my Mod50 rig, since I get clean, crunch, heavy rhythm, and heavy lead out of 2 modules.
 
Hi Nick,

I use my amp like this. For example, the SL2x...I set channel A for a cranked JCM 800 tone with gain at about 2:00. I use channel B for heavier rhythm with gain around 11-noon. With this I can hit them with the sparkle Drive for leads. I like the feel and tone of this more than channel B alone. I like that it not only adds compression but reshapes to add more mids!

The RC was for me to tighten up the Erect......even after the tight bass cap mod. I use the amp's presence control now to tighten it.
