Demo Tips
•
Whenever possible, demonstrate AFX pedals in stereo for maximum impact
• E
mphasize the natural tone of the instrument before cranking up the effect. Then, turn the
pedal on and off to show that the natural guitar sound isn’t buried or overly colored, even
with the effect all the way up.
•
When demoing an AFX Delay: Set a delay to “Long” mode, press and hold the switch until
the light flashes. Play a short rhythm phrase, release the switch. Improvise over the loop
you just created.
•
Develop a repertoire of appropriate licks to highlight each type of AFX effect
Common Questions
“Why haven’t I heard about acoustic stompboxes before?”
“It’s never been done with as much attention to detail. Acoustic products
are Fishman’s specialty, and AFX is changing the market.”
“Is $250 on the high side for a stompbox?”
“Not for pro gear, many boutique effects sell for much more.
Fishman’s prices are very competitive for such high quality products.”
“You bought a great sounding guitar, why compromise your tone by using
electric guitar pedals?”
