Excellent condition. Sounds amazing. Original Box and packing included.The PETE CORNISH P-2™ is highly recommended for a fat,
high-gain, searing lead sound and is perfect for solos and heavy rock rhythm
work. This pedal is used prominently by David Gilmour of Pink Floyd and Paul
McCartney. The P-2™’s full, bright sound cuts through the
mix effortlessly and was the recipient of the Editor's Pick Award from Guitar
Player Magazine, receiving the following review:
"The PETE
CORNISH P-2™ delivers extremely fat,
smooth, and harmonically rich distortion tones, ranging from a relatively mellow
crunch to searing high-gain sustain. The pedal is also extraordinarily
responsive to playing dynamics, cleans up nicely with even slight guitar volume
adjustments, and it provides nearly uncanny single-note definition within
chords. Finally, it can crank out insane amounts of gain. Astonishing! Extremely
fat tone, quiet, great dynamics, infinite sustain, exceptional chord definition".
The input to this unique device is our universally acclaimed
High Impedance, Unity Gain, Class A, Buffer Preamp with it's superior RFI
rejecting capability (to eliminate Radio Station interference) and Low Impedance
Audio output, allowing the use of extended cable runs from the P-2™ in
bypass mode. The fixed High Impedance load presented to the Guitar allows the
pickups to operate at their optimum, even when several effects units are
connected after the P-2™. The Unity Gain Buffer also prevents "Ghost
Distortion" being audible in Bypass Mode. This effect unit gets the most benefit
from being fed into a clean, full frequency response amplifier and I recommend
that when you receive your pedal you connect it up without anything else in
line, just Guitar/Pedal/Amp, and discover the way the controls interact, both
with themselves and the guitar/amp controls. Then adding the rest of your
effects, you may find that you need to make slight adjustments to these to
compliment the constant signal level provided by the P-2™.
The tone facility on the P-2™ has been designed to
provide an attenuation of 14dB at 3KHz when set fully Counter Clockwise. When
the tone control is set fully Clockwise it provides the maximum Harmonic Content
to the signal. Settings in-between CW and CCW will provide varying amounts of
high frequency attenuation: experiment to find your optimum setting. The TONE control features fully passive frequency attenuating components that do not
cause unnecessary phase shift or uncontrolled mid range problems.
FEATURES:High Impedance RFI rejecting input buffer.
Each unit is hand built, wired and tested by Pete, Lynda and Mingus Cornish.
Housed in a Rugged Die-cast box.
Heavy Duty all-metal footswitch with Hi-Brite LEDs.
Dimensions: 145 X 95 X 49 mm
