Anywho, > I am curious about the signal quality in bypass mode. > Any comments, criticisms, complaints, recommendations? True bypass. Sounds clean to me. I have and use a Z-Vex SHO(verdrive), Woolly Mammoth bass fuzz, Seek Wah, Ooh Wah, and Lo-Fi Loop Junky. They're great pedals. Batteries last forever, they take up little room in the bag or on the stage, solid as heck. I strongly recommend Z-Vex pedals. I will say that each Seek Wah and Ooh Wah sounds slightly different from each other when it's *not* bypassed, so if you're not happy with the tone of a given Seek Wah or Ooh wah when it's on, try another. It's a subtle difference, but it is present. > 'Tis a spendy little pedal.

Zachary just started shipping them late last week, and my local Z-Vex dealer didn't have any Seek-Trems in yet as of Saturday (I got the email from Z-Vex Friday night). I hope my local dealer will have a Seek-Trem in this week and it will be mine. Yes. Yesss..... Steve B Subscape Annex http://www.subscapeannex.com/ Phasmatodea http://www.phasmatodea.net/
