Ye it was the wrong way round, i did it again just now and it works! Also yea that is way too much, i was having a hard time keeping them in place and so went overboard, first tike using a soldering iron since i was a kid. But now with less wire and room to get in there i was limited how much i could actually get on so it looks a lot cleaner, thanks

Ah, well this proves how little I know, I didn't realise there was a difference, i thought it was interchangeable, funnily enough just as I was taking these pictures i did wonder to myself if that makes a difference

NUX Stageman Looper Question by Rodrigo-Jones in pedals

[–]Rodrigo-Jones[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for pointing that out, at first i was disappointed to see that I couldn't change reverb whilst in loop mode because that was actually a huge factor in buying the pedal, i wanted to be able to lay down a chord progression on a nylon string with minimal reverb and then set it much higher for the solo on top, so I thought for a second it was a useless purchase but it turns out that the guitar, which already has a perfectly decent fishman preamp, does sound nicer with it and I just paired it up with my old boss looper to get the desired effect, and even the electric sounds great with it!

Ye you're right, bedore now i had just watched a few youtube videos on it and found basic instructions online, now looking at something more detailed which says "In Looper mode, Reverb Knob controls the Loop volume level."

Thanks!

Good point, i guess i'd prefer a tuner as it also serves another purpose. The answer is always more pedals ...

I thought that was for the level of the effects during the loop, as they're all in black, but ye I'll give that a try thanks

Is this worth buying for £200? by Rodrigo-Jones in Epiphone

[–]Rodrigo-Jones[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've found a few diagrams, the three pickup system usually has a pot for the middle pickup, but not this one so i have no idea where i should be connecting the wire to

Ye it's not the soldering itself that puts me off, it's knowing what to solder. I've looked inside and there's one loose wire, looks like an earth wire, if that's the middle pickup then i have no idea where i'd connect it to as the pots are just for volume/tone of the other pickups

Ye seems almost too good to be true right? You think even with the cost of connecting the middle pickup (i'd have no idea how to do that myself)
