Creation Audio Labs - Reedemer Circuit, M77-T

[guitarslinger]

I've had this project with a little DeArmond M77T going on. Added a genuine Bigsby, upgraded electronics etc. (Double thanks to Default for some help with a wiring issue.) But, I was so happy with Creation's "Holy Fire" overdrive pedal I decided to try another one of their products. It's a tone circuit that connects to the output jack. Wow! what an improvement. Hard to describe the difference but it's just better everywhere. They say that once you get to a certain point in your tone quest you spend 80% of your time (and money) trying to squeeze out another 20% in tone. Well this circuit worked really well on this guitar with 2K pickups. Wanted to know if anyone else has tried this and offer a "heads up" on a product that, for me at least, delivers.

Never heard of it, but I'll check it out. How do you like the new Bigsby vis. the old Digsby?

Ok, now I know what it is. It converts the high impedance signal from the pups to a low impedance signal, allowing you to drive longer cables and reducing the mismatch when you use stomp boxes. As an example, one of the guys I work with uses a a Boss multieffect board and his strat is considerably louder straight into the amp. That's a good product, particularly if some of your pedals don't have true bypass.

I like the feel of the Bigsby much better. Smoother in use and better feeling finish. It is also a little longer and where I rest my hand on the guitar the hump in the tailpiece is in a slightly different place. The location of the Digsby interfered with my most natural feeling rest point and was a distraction.
