That Pedal Show | New Vs Old Ross Distortion, Nano Vs Vintage EHX Deluxe Memory Man & Other Interesting Excursions @ThatPedalShow | Uploaded October 2023 | Updated October 2024, 6 hours ago.
Four great pedals – but what do we really want to know?

Welcome to the show! We’ve had a lot of artist shows just lately… and we love them. But it is called That Pedal Show after all, and there are many here among us who feel that life is but a… oh hang on… there are many here among us who miss a good old dig through some new stompers.
We have decided to focus our digging on one or two simple - hopefully obvious - questions that the official demo and review videos probably won’t ask. Now then, regular viewers will know that ‘focus’ isn’t exactly a key strength of That Pedal Show, so we’re easing ourselves in gently via the usual tangents and banter. What we eventually get around to asking is:


- Does the new Ross Distortion sound like an original old one from the late 1970s?
- Does the Thorpy The Dane MkII’s new boost actually sound like the Heavy Water?
- Does the Electro-Harmonix Nano Deluxe Memory Man sound anything like Dan’s original?
- And what is a Lo-Fi reverb anyway? Erm, using the Caroline Météore and UA Golden as our yardsticks.

Massive thanks to…
- Jonny Duffett for giving us the old Ross pedal.
- Gav Thorpe for the trade on the Marshall Bluesbreaker combo.
- Charlie Higginson of Riffers Brixham for the deal on the Johnny Jag!

If you can, enjoy the show!
