"i own a Joyo Tremolo pedal.
i was lured by the cheap price - turns out to be a mighty expensive paper weight.

i heard Joyo clones pedals by famous makers,…"

the Thingz replied to the Thingz's discussion Joyo pedals in the group Bands & Musicians"the vintage overdrive is the one i was looking at, thanks Johnny.
lots of vendors are selling Joyo stuff on ebay and through amazon. you can buy them direct from China but i think i'll find a domestic vendor."
Johnny Danger / Itchy Scabs replied to the Thingz's discussion Joyo pedals in the group Bands & Musicians"I have the joyo vintage overdrive - it really is bloody great, I leave it on all the time for a nice amount of grit before a variety of fuzzes. Get one - and even if you don't like it it costs bugger all for such a good sounding pedal. got mine…"

The Ungodly 77s replied to the Thingz's discussion Fender Excelsior amplifier in the group Bands & Musicians"I, too, have had my eye on that amp. It looks super cool for being a Fender (and under $300).
I am gonna keep my eye out for one in a few years when they start popping up used on Craigslist.
Thanks for the post!"
the Thingz replied to the Thingz's discussion Fender Excelsior amplifier in the group Bands & Musicians"the tremolo is a little slight, good for single note runs but it kind of washes out if you do a bo diddley-type rhythm."

the Thingz added a discussion to the group Bands & MusiciansFender Excelsior amplifier
I just picked up the Excelsior, made by Fender. Sounds real nice, an all-tube amp for $300, surprising loud for 13 watts, and it looks cool too!See More
