Pedal Steel Guitar Amplifier

This compressor is incredible for pedal steel guitar. Channel 1 goes to volume pedal, 2 and 3 stereo at end of chain for more comp/limiting of peaks and noise gate since I have single coil pickups. Full control, perfect!

Great for sustaining notes on my lap steel guitar.

Bought two of these. One for at home and one for my uncles' house where he is teaching me steel guitar.

I use this to power a guitar pedal rather than changing out batteries. Works perfect, no complaints.

I use this for storing my micro bass amplifier and pedal tuner. With the multi-level foam there is a lot of room for adaptability. I have nothing bad to say about it thus far!

Excellent! It does everything I need and more for my pedal steel and telecaster setup, and built in effects can so easily be added or backed off on the fly. Now to see if it can last, being a pretty cheap mixer Ive read varying reports on Behringer, fingers crossed...

It is simple to install rug steel body, pretty nice Head Phones amplifier it come with everything you need to connect an Sound it is OK Can't be beat for the price

I got the last one in stock (time to reorder, B&H!) and I can see why... the Mel9 pedal adds a completely new vibe to any electric guitar setup. It's very dynamic and responsive, only slightly losing track with very soft notes. Send the dry out to one amp, and the effect out to another (or the sound board) and your sound palette gets very big very quickly. Like everyone else probably did, I immediately dialed in the flute sound and learned Strawberry Fields Forever, but it doesn't stop there. Strings, cello, orchestra and choir sounds are super-fun and very authentic - even down to the warbly tape sound. One thing I'm considering is putting an EQ pedal on Mel9 as its sounds can be a little harsh in the midrange. Dial that back, add some reverb, set the attack and decay at about 1 o'clock, and you have a string pad like keyboard players have always enjoyed - at a fraction of the cost of MIDI guitar synth. Play around with pickup settings too, as the effect sound definitely responds differently to neck vs. bridge pickups. Playing speed is also a factor... most of the sounds take a little time to bloom, so staccato, rapid picking probably won't let the sounds fully develop. But for adding a huge layer and vintage texture to your sound, the Mel9 is where it's at. I can't wait to try it on bass guitar too. This one will be used a lot.

From time to time, I need the use the guitar input of my amplifier for a second microphone input - this gizmo enables me to do that withous issues.

I was using a smaller version of this and could never keep my music on it. I fasten this to a mic stand on the side of my steel guitar, and until something better comes along, this is it!
