Re: [Harp-L] Leaving my AFB+ in the bag

Speaking of Lone Wolf, I recently purchased a L. W. Harp Attack.  Got to try 
it on a gig, the other night.  It won't dreplace my amp, but it worked fine 
and travels in a little bag.  I mounted it on an old guitar mic holder and 
attached it to my mic stand at waist level.  Great for a blind person, as I 
could easily make adjustments.  I ran it into the band's P.A.  Thanks Lone 
Wolf.

Subject: [Harp-L] Leaving my AFB+ in the bag







I've been using the Kinder AFB+ consistently for maybe 3 years now. I 
recently purchased a Lone Wolf Octave pedal becasue I really liked the sound 
samples. (Don't be thrown off by the Octave name -- I have a POG that is 
clearly recoginzable as having various octaves -- the LW Octave pedal 
creates its sound through the generation of an octave, but to my ear does 
not sound "merely" or "mostly" like an octave pedal -- the octave somehow, 
in conjunction with the other properties of the pedal, fattens up the sound 
in a VERY pleasing way -- to my ears anyway -- and if not overdone.)
Okay back to the point, the LW Octave pedal ALSO has some feedback fighting 
properties -- to the point that for my last couple of gigs I left the AFB+ 
in the bag and just used the octave pedal! The octave pedal gave all the 
feedback fighting I needed (maybe an extra two numbers on the volume -- just 
to give a very rough idea). That was plenty. I expect the AFB+ fights 
feedback more -- in the sense that I could turn the volume knob up even 
higher, but I don't really need that. You might notice that the LW Octave 
pedal is significantly less expensive than the AFB+. However, I ain't 
selling my AFB+ yet -- but if it stays in the bag for a year....
