| OK, well, I'll jump in on this too...I'm just starting to tweak my LE and I'm loving it. I've messed about with the Pedal effects just a bit and I'm very impressed! The Wah is really nice to my ears, very smooth and sweet, which is exactly what I'm going after. I'm using it in Post Amp mode right now which seems to give a more full-ranged wah sound. Pity (as so many have said before) that you can't plug a fuzz in before it, but oh well, life is very sad sometimes. I've also been grooving on the Klon Centaur model. I borrowed a Klon from my friend Mike Katon (a fabulous guitarist with an amazing pedal collection, check him out at katon.com) and it's fantastic...but damn, the LE model is so close to my ears that it makes no difference, and I've spent over 30 years listening pretty critically to music and effects! Nice to not have to fork over the $400 or whatever for the OD, eh? So far as I can see, the LE, as they say, rules. |

The pedal effects are awesome. I too like the wah, my cry baby sits on the shelf lonely and rejected.
What does it for me though are the Modulation effects, so full and customizable. The Bi-Chorus is just fantastic through two amps. When I get in a funky mood I hit the filtron - awesome. |

| My only problem with LE is that I don't have time enough right now to use all the things it can do! But since my Deluxe and my Blues Junior are both down in the music room, I'm gonna start trying the stereo effects. I'm just scared that I'm gonna like it so much that I'll have to carry around two amps...and I'm a lazy guy with a bad back! |

this Klon Centaur pedal I had never heard of but It does sound nice
try it with the Recto amp, Marshall Greenback cab and don't push the gain to much... sounds awesome

| wouldn't putting the wah post be very similar to using a fuzz before it. I myself have never found a use for a real distortion stomp box so i don't use one as a model either. |
