Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? I have several Hardwire Pedals and I would use any of them at a gig without a backup. They are solidly built pedals that always deliver. Reliability How has it stood up over time? As I stated "They are solidly built pedals that always deliver". General Your general opinion of this product. Lots of Delay types to tweak to your preference. Very user friendly. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? Very intuitive to operate. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Only con would be the Looper. I wish it was longer and didn't have the glitch at the end of the 20 seconds. It's still usable though. I tdoesn't quantize which I prefer. I like to hear what I put in and not have it reprocessed by any internal clock. I use the looper a lot. You just have to make the loops a little shorter and get the timing down where the loop stops. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? The finish on the Hardwire Pedals is anodized aluminum. Action How was the action out of the box? Action is great. It turns on and off by stepping on it and the knobs turn.

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? DIDN'T know it was a Dgitech product (I have a phobia of them) but since this says Hardwire I think the curse may be lifted. VERY RUGGED. Reliability How has it stood up over time? JUST GOT IT General Your general opinion of this product. One of the most awsome things in God's creation! Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? SUPER DUPER EASY TO TWEEK and lots and lots of control. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Finish How did the stain or paint job look? I'm about function no apperance. But they do remind me of OLD SCHOOL transformers. I DIG IT. Action How was the action out of the box? A few tweeks andI was soundin' like a full band with just my guitar and mic. (I bought a second to run my vocals through)
Awesome Pedal!

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Reliability How has it stood up over time? I've had this for almost a year and she is doing just fine. Not worried. General Your general opinion of this product. I never thought of trying out the Hardwire line. thought it was a gimmick. watched some YouTube videos, and took a chance. Glad I did. You could find something better, but for me its perfect. If you have an Effects Loop, sounds better though the loop. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Finish How did the stain or paint job look? Action How was the action out of the box?

Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? Very well made.A huge amount of tweakability,from a tight,slapback echo,to infinite repeats. Reliability How has it stood up over time? Only had it a few weeks.It will eat up batteries very quickly,though! General Your general opinion of this product. Very good delay pedal-lots of control over parameters. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? Most difficult time for me was getting it to repeat when I wanted to hear it.I want to be able to hear it very little while I'm playing,but be more noticable when I pause.It wants to be very overwhelming and in your face all the time. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? Can't adjust tone,but it doesn't seem to color your sound at all.The modulated echo is very usefull for clean parts,not so good for distorted tones. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? Finish was outstanding. Action How was the action out of the box? Action was good.
