Hi all.
I'm wondering if anyone has experience with the Fender FBM pedal. It gets great reviews and is reasonably priced. I plan to play it thru my Hot Rod Deluxe hoping to get a better sound. I've been using a Moor echo and it helps but not quite what I'm looking for.
Thanks to all.

I played through one once through a Blues Junior. I didn't like it. The sound through the Blues Junior was far better.

I've yet to try a FBM-1 myself though I've wanted to for a long time. My one word of advice such as it is though... Try playing it through a clean Class-D amp of some kind, or a very simple tube amp. If you play it through anything as complex as a HRD or a BJ in terms of circuitry, then you have to account for all the parameters of the amp in question.

I have one. I play through a memphis mini, I really like it with guitar, very nice sound with humbuckers. But doesn't work so well with harp. I would definitely recommend the tech 21 blonde or the cheaper copy of it, the joyo american sound, instead. It's aiming at doing the same thing, but analog. I have the joyo, it's like 35$ on ebay. Looking to try it with PA. It's similar but analog.
