@@danawakes2001 look up the Expedition, hollow body edition. It fits my full scale 5-string bass as well as my bigger hollowbodys electrics. See my recent review.

@@hiroprotagonitis I do it all the time; I own a double neck lap steel and this does a perfect job at it - nice firmness, control, scope.

@@ddebayan1990 any works! Low draw. And if you use it as an EXP into your profiler, it doesn’t need any power.

@@itsemurha0 power comes from the demonstrated power supply. It does connect to your computer using the shown USB-C cable, but that does not power it (in any board I know of)

@@Johannfrank thanks for the answer.

That's news to me! Definitely try this one out if that is something of value to you - it really is versatile!

@@Johannfrank yeah I hope my wong press is defective, waiting for responses from hottone. can't be like that.

@@stefanhamilton8713 I appreciate the love!

Exp function is really straight forward, compared to the innovations highlighted here.. but it’s an awesome and mighty function, especially now that builders start omitting the exp pedal from their multi effects units!

​@@Johannfrank so how would you use the input and expession input at tha same time if the volume is controlled in green mode and wah in blue..how do you control the expression out???

@@i.b.l.b5627 you can’t do both. It’s either a volume+wah, chained and powered like a regular pedal, or an EXP, plugged into a multi effect (Ampero, etc). Hence why I focus on the vol+wah function because to me, it’s the where this pedal really breaks ground. However the one plus side of the EXP function is: the pedal doesn’t need power in that mode. So, that can be a plus depending on your rig. Hope this helps!

It’s such a broad question or broad statement .. like what’s better, Strat or LesPaul. Purely qualitatively however, the Hotone partnership with Celestion IRs would give it a leg up in “better sounding” unit. But you can load those onto the HX too. The HX platform is way better (thus far) in terms of user friendliness.. but that might change over the updates Hotone puts out. At the end of the day we are now working with evolving machines instead of idle products, which is what makes it super exciting.

Their partnership with celestion made the Ampero a real top of the liner when it comes to IRs, correct. As a matter of fact, I often use the Ampero unit just for amps alone, sometimes with the HX Stomp after for all my stereo effects.

Normal quarter inch.

As close to "no" as it gets. Never been an issue for me with this pedal.

Absolutely, and that's like 1% of the potential of this pedal:)

I've never used it as EXP, because it's just too good as a vol/wah. It's almost a shame to use the EXP function, which would cancel out these 2 functions. I transferred my Soul Press 1 over to EXP duties, though! Super small footprint and works well.

HA! Love that concept. I don't think it's possible, though. I currently use my SP one as EXP.

I'm not sure... what power supply specifically are you talking about? I use a good isolated power supply (Phoenix by Walrus) and it's perfect (except a normal hum when in Wah mode)

Both good, still on my board and rocking it! Only quick fix I ever had to do was to tighten 2 screws inside because it started wiggling a little side to side.. super easy and it's been firm ever since.

Hey Charles. Great question. NO scratch, which is awesome and unheard of yet in my experience! I did have to tighten a couple screws inside the pedal, with great and clear instructions from the service dept at Hotone, because it started wiggling laterally... which one could expect after 100s of unforgiving foot movements! It was quick and easy. It's good as new still.

Havent tried the Joyo (cause I'm so all set with the SPII! haha), but at first look I don't see an EXP function on the Joyo... So that would be one clear argument for the SPII. Joyo looks old school chunky, too

I haven't had that chance yet!

There are many good ones out there! You have to see what fits you, and spend the time to learn how to talk to it and manage it efficiently and quickly. The HX Stomp is amongst the ones that I now see everywhere from guitarists to bassists to keyboardists' rigs. I've done entire shows just with that and a footswitch, and Line 6 are great with updates. My rec is just get yourself some good IRs. Now Fractal, Kemper, UA are all top notch companies and make great stuff. My 2nd recommendation is, do your research and once you acquire the piece, log 100s of hours on it to know the modeler in and out. All of them can send a spaceship to the moon in terms of CPU , yet most players only use a fraction of their abilities. It's up to us to make the best of it!

@@Johannfrank Thanks. I get all that but was hoping for a more specific recommendation. I do not have 100 hours to test before buying. If you had $1,000 or less, which one would you consider? Main contenders are FM3, Ampero II, Line 6 product, etc.? I am not a pro doing shows- just want good tone and relatively simple to use. The Ampero II is only $400- seems to check many of the boxes- no? Is the FM3 that much better for a casual, at home player?

Hi there! Love the Blues Jr., I still use mine quite a bit. This Wah will do! It doesn't OD amps nearly as much as other Wahs, though keep in mind that you do drive certain frequencies up quite a bit (it's the purpose). So if your amp gain is past 6-7, it'll start breaking up... But that's the beauty of a 15W amp. If it does, turn the Q knob down a bit! You'll still get the wah effect without driving the eq as hard:)

@@Johannfrank Cheers Johann, great work 👍

Thank you Greg!

Yes, it's very linear

I don't believe you can; refer to the manual to make sure. I always abide to factory specs when it comes to electrical matters

Yep, I'd really like to know more about this... it could stop me from buying it. I use a Blues Junior with a clean sound (as loud as I can go) and I'm afraid it's going to push it into overdrive. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated 👍

Same here! This one is definitely worth a try:)
