Hi everyone,
I'm a new forum member here... I just got my H&K Grandmeister 40 Deluxe and am loving it so far!
I used to own a Blackstart HT-100 and built my effects around the use of that head. I invested quite a lot into a Strymon Timeline, a Boss MD-500, Noise suppressor, Boost pedal and two Rocktron switch/loopers. I had built one box to contain all 'front of the amp' effects and another box to contain all the 'effects loop' effects. Both boxes had their own individual Voodoo Power 2 power supplies and Rocktron Switch looper. I had invested in Lava Piston cabling to get all of this wired up.
Now that I have the Grandmeister 40, I'm sure that I can get away with not using the Strymon or Boss, plus a few other pedals - including the Noise gate and boost, which means I can fit everything into my one custom made pedal board box.
I'm a bit cautious, as I'm don't see a lot of reviews that compare the Grandmeister effects to any other specific pedals. I guess I'll have to use my own ear and make up my own mind
I like the idea of selling my extra gear, as it will free up funds to buy more awesome gear - but I'm hesitant and don't want to regret selling anything, should I find that the Grandmeister doesn't fulfill my needs.
Has anyone else here decided to purge anything and rely solely on the effects offered up by this amazing head?
