The elements is awesome! Not quite what I usually look for in a pedal, but awesome all the same. It was a lot more dynamic than I expected, when I switched to single coils I could get a great clang out of it that was :drool: What really surprised me were the lower gain settings. They were incredibly interactive and with the tone controls you could get all kinds of woofy/trebly/generally amazing sounding tones.

The clipping options didn't change things drastically from my experience, but they did change the nature of the clipping some.

In combination with the tone controls you could dial-in big muff tones, what I imagine as death metal tones, and really the way pickups and picking style affect the overall tone you could dial-in just about any kind of high-gain sound. I set all the controls to noon and was able to get all kinds of tones by just adjusting how I was playing.

Overall a really fantastic pedal, but not for me. I couldn't quite bond with the overall sound, but I'd be surprised if this wasn't wildy popular because it really does sound great.

A few days :idk: ...No more than a week would probably be ideal.

Raintes, when you get the Trem, and MaxMaps gets the Elements, I will send out the next persons shipping info.

I'll get to try it for myself soon, but I was hoping you could give some more information regarding not bonding with the overall sound. You describe it as being fairly versatile, except for the clipping option sounds, so I was wondering what about the overall sound wasn't happening for you?

The versatility of this pedal seems ideal to me, and I'm anxious to see where it would fit amongst my current array of boost-dirt-fuzz (sparkle motion-white light-monarch-hoof) and if I could replace any or all of those pedals to scale down my board size.

I just spent two days with it before I sent it out. I was going to keep it if it was here any longer.

It should be too you soon.

It was kinda hard for me to put my finger on. It was really just the very nature of the beast itself. it's not really what I look for in a dirt pedal. It reacted in ways I was entirely not used to, not bad by any means just different, and it was those differences that I couldn't quite bond with. That's part of the reason I didn't record a demo, I just wasnt sure how to play with it.
