HomeGoods™️ never saw this coming

Vongon Ultrasheer is an AMAZING stereo reverb and vibrato pedal! Ultrasheer one of the best sounding reverbs I've used, and the random vibrato is an absolute treat. Not only is this a new staple in my studio sound, it's a new staple in my studio decor. With a few simple mods, this can become the ultimate coffee table piece. Join me as I bring Ultrasheer home to it's motherland, HomeGoods.
Thank you Vongon, for sending me Ultrasheer !!!

[@dainhamilton7746]

I'd be so stoked if the one time I actually went into a homegoods that there was a sick reverb pedal just chilling out

[@emilyharpist]

Lmfao same!! Just go to the aisle with the blocks of wood and turn all of them around!! You might get lucky 😊

[@seanmagallanes1276]

The stealth "Live, Laugh, Love" pedal idea is absolute gold! The music was gorgeous, too.

[@emilyharpist]

Hahah thank you so much, Sean!!!

[@kurreorava9626]

The music at the beginning is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard.

[@b0000kify]

The dedication to the Homegoods bit was a hoot!

[@emilyharpist]

hahah thank you so much!!! once we laughed that hard at the idea we knew we HAD to go through with it 😂❤️

[@johnt1815]

Ok, I know I'm probably late to the party on this, but the fact that you have a custom neon sign that says "Custom Neon Sign" is absolutely glorious.

[@emilyharpist]

lmaooo thank you so much

[@bobisadrummer]

"A little dew drop of verb" is now my go to. This pedal works really well with Harp. I could imagine this sound in a game where you're a little drop of water and you have to roll/slide/drip around leaves and surfaces and become a bigger drop of water. Like a little 2d game with water color graphics.

[@emilyharpist]

hahaha oh my god i LOVE that idea!!! 😂❤️

[@bricelory9534]

It feels more like it was a pedal intended for desktop use, being so beautifully crafted. What a classic look, which obviously REQUIRES Mooger Fooger pedals to keep it company. ...which I think are also available at Home Goods 😅 I was SLAIN with the Live, Laugh, Love bit! If you start a pedal line, your flagship should be the Live Laugh, Love combo pedal of vibrato, reverb, and delay. "Live" is the vibrato, "Laugh" the delay, and "Love" the reverb. And all the dials can just be crafty blocks of wood from Home Goods!

[@naturaljoe759]

I think “Live” should be the delay, as it “lives on”, and “Laugh” would be vibrato because it sounds like a giggle.

[@bricelory9534]

@@naturaljoe759 either way! Haha! My thinking was that in a lot of styles of music, vibrato is used to "liven" the sound (that is, vibrato on an instrument rather than the pedal, which is obviously a different thing!), and that laughs can bounce a bit like a delay - ha ha ha! But that's a bit beyond the point 😆

[@naturaljoe759]

@@bricelory9534 that works too, I was just looking at it more literally I guess

[@bricelory9534]

@@naturaljoe759 totally, either way, it's a winner of a pedal 🤔
