bassboy115 Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 I went to see the Zico Chain monday night and i was stood right in front of Chris the bass player. I looked at all his gear as he came on to set it up but i couldnt work out what one of the pedals he was using was. It was a little orange thing, more of a circle than a square or rectangle(curvy), slightly smaller than his Boss overdrive next to it. The only other pedals he had was the boss overdrive and a Boss tuner aswell but was using an Ampeg SVT pro4 which he may of had a tube sound on giving him his dirty tone. It was hard to tell amongst the other overdrive which was always on but i think it was another overdrive or fuzz, possibly a filter but i couldnt be certain. Can anybody tell me from my terrible description what it was?!! Thanks Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheddatom Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 expandora is silver isn't it? It could be anything to be fair, loads of people re-house pedals, or have custom pedals made etc. I've never heard of the band, so they can't be that big. Maybe just ask them?

bassboy115 Posted November 29, 2007 Author Share Posted November 29, 2007 no its not that pedal it was more like a a marshall pedal shape! But i dont think it was a marshall i didnt expect to find out from the description i gave TBH i just thought someone might have known! The band arent big really i should have asked them on the night but i forgot! www.myspace.com/zicochain www.zicochain.com If anybody wants to have a look!

cheddatom Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 like the new marshall shape, for the echohead etc? I've seen some brightly coloured pedals with a similar shape on ebay, but can't remember their name. I don't think they have much of a reputation, it's just cheap stuff really, but could be good. Could be that? Have a look on ebay, see what you can see! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matty Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Possibly one of them cheap Daphon pedals: which seem to be based on the Ibanez Soundtank pedals. Well, at least in style... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bassist has a seriously big sound! The music's quite good too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vegas_hooker Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 So do they 'write' songs about child molesters often? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musky Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Danelectro do plenty of curvy pedals. [attachment=3843:FAB_E_2T.jpg] Though obviously that one's an echo so probably not what he was using. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
