Looks like a nifty tool. That Eric Valentine is a cool cat.

Whoa. Very interesting. Great post Swurveman. That's a ver well done video. I would liked to have heard just a little about how that would affect effects pedals.

Yes this is awesome, but does anyone else think the guitar sounds like crap with every cable he used. Trebly and piercing.

I'm not clear, can you use effects pedal with it or not? I was guessing that as long as it's the last thing in the chain it will work.

The guitar sounded different with settings on the cable. Eric also said that the cable has to go into the guitar, nowhere else, and that it only works with passive magnetic pickups, the guitar/cable combo becoming something of an LC network filtering the highs with high capacitance cable. The graphs were convincing, as was the demo. I thought that Tele sounded the best with the high capacitance cable, but mostly it sounded like crap. |

I was very impressed. And I find the guitar sound to be totally useful for many applications. Not everyone like the same thing every time in a guitar sound.

Hey donr - It's almost like this cable does the same thing as the Kemper Definition parameter. LOL |

Ha. I seldom get that deep into a profile, some tube sag sometimes. Unless I'm making my own profile.
The Undertone cable seems like something you'd want one of. Especially for single coil guitars.

This looks awesome, I want to hear how big of a difference it makes with humbuckers

A tone pot in the guitar can do the same thing if you sub the cap values down to the pf level.
Put the cap in series and you get a HPF effect. This was all done back in the 1970's, nothing new here.
Filtering an already filtered guitar pickup with all the parasitic effects only reduces the guitars sonics.
That's why all mine are active, I start large and filter externally, if desired. You can make big into small easily, making small into big is another story.

I got one. It saved a session last week.
Bogus gtr, bogus tone...got something perfectly useful.
Used it last month with a good player, great tone...didn't need it and ended up not caring much for any of the switch positions. Pulled it out.
Glad I got one. It's a cool tool. One more thing to try before using the trusty old face palm

Can you still use effect pedals with it?

As I understand the function, no. It would defeat the purpose of the cable.

Well, I almost never use pedals. Being old school, I like a sensitive amp and the volume control, but there are exceptions. In daylight, you can't see the digital tuners that clip on guitars, so I might use a pedal tuner, and there's a new pedal that creates a 12 string sound that works nicely. Also, unless it's a particularFender, there might be one or two songs where I'd choose to use tremolo. Unless the amp has a separate line in for pedals, I'd be stuck.
