Interesting that Hilden makes great use of this, but a lot of folks the more I read have issues.
I suppose it's in his fingers - he would make any pedal sound awesome.
Totally agree! When you listen to his videos he sounds very much the same across all the different guitars he plays (which is in the thousands). The guy has an awesome tone but its more his fingers than the pedal. I think the pedal works well for him to get his sound, but might not give someone else the same result.
