OVERDRIVE- ORIGIN EFFECTS Halcyon ___NEW___ WTF ?? a Tube Screamer ??

ORIGIN EFFECTS HALCYON 

- GREEN OD - 

$245.00 USD

I knew they would let me down. There are 751,698  pedal makers on the planet and all but one hadn't made a Tube Screamer. Does the world need another one. NO!!! Are they getting this plus another one from a pedal maker who is going pro next week? YES !!!

Ok ...here it is the Origin Tube Screamer.

The layout is standard ts with volume, tone and gain. A switch lets you pick ts or their idea of a hot rodded one. Another switch fixes the dynamics problem and the weird thinning out thing you get if you turn your guitar's volume down. 

CONCLUSION

I have the only ts I need. The Caline CP-75 Emerald Night. Side by side with 

a brand new Ibanez ts9 not only can I not hear any difference.  

I paid $35.00 USD.

What I hear on the video is a very crystal clear and sparkling OD. 

It is also a bit thin and lame.

The market world wide, is world wide and there there are millions of players.

If your brand name has a high profile and makes a luxury product there are 

those will buy the product to noodle around on it  on a Saturday afternoon. 

They will spend 10 times the price for new golf club to use the next day. 

My basic point is if you want a ts this is overkill and will not make you 

sound any better than my Caline. If getting something assuring  

seems best then buy the Ibanez ts9 for $110.00 USD.
