Ah, I see you've got one of those silly Danelectro sitar pedals!

I've had one of those for years and I've never actually managed to use it for anything useful - will be interesting to hear what you guys get out of it.

What we got from it was a fuckload of laughter and lots of comments like "how is THAT supposed to sound like a sitar?". Easily the worst effects pedal ever made...

Ben said...

Yeah, it's exquisitely rubbish...

It's like they couldn't figure out a way to make a convincing sitar sound, so they just threw some cheesy space phaser thing in on top and hoped for the best.

And there's no way to control or turn down the cheesy space phaser, so whatever signal you put through the thing just turns into that one stupid noise it makes. Genius!

I really pity anyone who paid £100 or whatever to buy one new...
