John Bohlinger transition to Jim Jarmusch is almost complete.

[@craiger2399]

I have a big box, a 550TT, and this nano. The nano sounds great, and it's good to finally have the DMM in a small pedal. You're a great player John. I want to pick up my guitar whenever I hear you play.

[@gregmize01]

Finally! Still have my full size DMM but have never put it on my gigging board because of the separate power supply and of course it's size.

[@brianaaland5263]

I love that they made this, but the noise on it and the clipping was crazy. I own a Big Box and the 1100 tap tempo and I have white noise and it'll clip, but not as bad as in this demo. Love John and glad he did this run through.

[@MikeHulmeUK]

As an owner of the Nano, and previous owner of a big box, I can say the pedal doesn't clip like in this demo if you get your levels right. Not sure what happened here, but I find it actually cleaner than the old version, with more headroom. On the Nano, I keep the level around 10 o' clock in my setup (in the FX loop of my amp).

[@TheKissarmygeneral]

I've had a few of memory mans over the years, I've kept the Memory Toy on my board though!

[@ak2112]

Memory Toy is legit

[@jonathanlee5907]

I love the ‘spacey reverb’ section; I’m hearing ’70s Richard Thompson or John Martyr playing a ballad there

[@buckdancer421]

Great demo John, good to see you rockin' and hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving!

[@wasteyelo1]

Good review. I love the ending "Psych Freak Out". Splendid. Makes me wish I still had a bong. 😁

[@mikefournier2601]

I have the 1970 s one still do now I got the new one comeing in it sound like a good one even better hope it get here soon 😎

[@mikefournier2601]

Getting one this Friday hope it sound good as I hope

[@surfrby8876]

Great Demo as usual John , I have the old big shoe box MM, the size has always turned me off , this is perfect 👍

[@RobFlaxMusic]

OOF that tone at 4:28 YES

[@mikedavis8165]

That's exactly what I need a pedal to work myself out of a job with 😎👍

[@ronnieking1025]

thanks john great demo

[@CAMoore-nm2kx]

Best pedal I've ever bought

[@briancoyne6700]

1:38. That's what she said! 😆

[@mchamberlain7408]

Hahahaha brilliant

[@daniellarson3068]

Electro Harmonix ought to pay you for that demo.

[@StratsRUs]

Great !

[@ccfmafia3301]

Damn those walls look good.

[@JAFOpty]

it has proprietary power? so it isn't compatible with regular power supplies?

[@miner49er79]

Is this what EVH used on that song 316 ?

[@coreyrenstrom]

Love all the digital content from you guys and other guitar publications.. my wish tho which I know it unrealistic in this digital world, but speaking of analog I wish your mag and all the other mags were as good as they used to be. it’s unreal how thin and what a short read all the mags are nowadays. Premier used to be fat what happened?

[@veerchasm1]

DOD Rubberneck is a superior copy and does so much more for cheap

[@mikefournier2601]

I want to hear more daley

[@mr.astrophysics9115]

Nice to see a 70 year old enjoying his reviews

[@dfuzzybuzzy]

ive had the big box for 21 years and I got the nano for my mini board for home and it really stands up to the OG.

[@uriahroseii1026]

I've the the 90s version I use all the time (got new complete with little wooden crate), a early 80s version and this new Nano. It's not 100 percent (none of them are to each other) but they've all really close. The Nano squeezed out my Boss RE-20 Space Echo off my board. I have a small board going into a Princeton (controlled by a Boss MS-3) and the Nano is now in one of the loops. I'm digging it so far. Trying to preserve my 90s version since they've gotten much more valuable.

[@nikkisimpson1835]

Agree, I have been playing 90's DMM's for decades and own 3 very nice examples. I am really impressed with this Nano offering. It is the sound and perfect for a gig board. Tricky part is getting the modulation to match the vintage units because it's not fixed, but once figured out it matches the vintage ones. Bottom line is a/b'ing is un-necessary, plug in and enjoy one of if not the best delay circuit design ever! Really there is no need to pay the insane used prices anymore, and I am not saying this to deter people from vintage units, it's true.

[@ivenliu]

It overloading too much in amp ‘s loop circle，I don’t really into that fizzy sound，but its clean delay tone is killer.what a pity ，any good advice？😂

[@dodgedandle8311]

I’ve Heard this peddle is very noisy, from other reviews, shame cos I really like the bigger ones there great as we all know

[@nickp440]

is this johns living room or a PG set lol

[@Acujeremy]

Is there a way to get the pedal very quiet so all the noise is gone? If not, is there another pedal to use instead of similar quality?

[@iam5486]

Memory Toy perhaps! 😊👍

[@tomz1989]

Earthquake space spiral offers a similar delay... if you're after DMM copy in terms of tone and flavour well....this nano is what gets you closer. Space spiral is actually more tweakable and lets you tail very nice (and weird) sounds. Evilish. 6 knobs as well, 3 for delay settings and 3 for modulation options (just like this nano). If DMM is Mario, space spiral is Wario.

[@Acujeremy]

@@tomz1989 It looks like it is no longer in production and my interest being in analog pedals and I believe the Space Spiral is digital, but thanks!

[@tomz1989]

@@Acujeremy Pretty sure you can find used space spiral pedals on reverb/eBay....it's half digital and half analog, you are right....but the feeling is to tweak a full analog pedal. Give it a go! Another option (but we are getting a little far from DMM) could be Vapor Trail by Seymour Duncan . I've been "roaming" long time for delays with tweakable modulation...

[@Acujeremy]

@@tomz1989 Interesting approach to make it all about tweaking modulation. Very cool!

[@garystackhouse5787]

The second I see that a demo is done by John Bohlinger, I close the window.... good player... proves over and over he doesn't have a CLUE about gear.

[@rareform6747]

all it needs is Tap

[@redielg]

Kind of frustrating when people still use tremolo and vibrato interchangeably as if they mean the same thing. I know guitar companies are guilty for this - mixing up the terms on their products.

[@goran2608]

I love the sounds EHX pedals make, unfortunately all of their pedals I had died inside 6-8 months of purchase, and I take good care of my pedals so..i look elsewhere

[@gregmize01]

You're a liar

[@Stereostupid]

Really I have some that have been in snow rain .. humidity of NY then cold as Satan's goat kackles... But seriously they are still going strong not one issue even several from 81,83 ..

[@JavierID]

This is true. EHX has terrible quality control.

[@nclsrfn]

I've got like 6 of them since 2004, none of them failed.

[@deanallen927]

Awesome. Now make it programmable and it'll be the perfect delay.

[@mr.astrophysics9115]

He ruined this by playing a Gibson

[@jamesgrobertson8024]

Save money maybe get the Memory toy?

[@ivandel7788]

Maybe xvive delay it even has a mn3005

[@bonsummers2657]

Memory Toy is no where near as good as the deluxe memory man, including the nano. I've had both.

[@castorkat4868]

How many of your bands songs do you use delay in ...NONE

[@hoover728]

Every single one.

[@roberthart666]

dont like it to much going on with it, guess it would help a sloppy guitar player
