Hey guys. I briefly tried it out yesterday, and I was disappointed.

I used my Gibson J45 with Baggs VTC UST. I think it actually sounded better without the effect on. It sounded too chorus-y? I will try again today, as I only had a few minutes to play with it before practice.

I tried it with my LG2 American Eagle, which has a simple Baggs Element pickup in it - I think. It might be the Fishman UST, but I am not sure. Anyway, the improvement in tone was more noticeable on this guitar and pickup. I found that setting it to 1:00, and then dialing back Bass on my Fishman Solo, improved the tone a lot. But very weird... with the effect on, and no adjustment to lower bass EQ, the effect adds a very pronounced "woofy" bass, which is too much.

This made me immediately think that the Baggs VTC is a pretty good pickup.

I'll fool around a bit later today and report back...
