BE-OD feedback issue

[Glynchfan1]

Using my be-od and getting a really nasty harmonic squeal type feedback. Thought it might be. Guitar issue, switched and it's still doing it. Swapped out patchcords and still doing it. It also seems to have lost a bunch of grit with the same settings as before. Any info/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!! JoeV

Does it do it at lower gain settings? at first I was thinking it may be microphonic pickups but its doing it with another guitar as well. suggest you contact Dave Friedman and see what he says! Mine works great with zero issues like you having.

Thanks J, yeah I love the pedal. Just weird. I thought the same thing with pickups. Gonna change out all the patch cords and if that doesn't help(did pedal-guitar right away and issue continues) ill touch base with Sweetwater. They're usually good with that kind of stuff. With NAMM I wouldn't expect a response from DF for awhile. Rather not bug hm if not totally necessary.

Hope you figure it out or get to exchange it, good luck!

What are you running it in front of and with how much gain on the amp and guitar?

Try it on the clean channel of an amp. It's not pick ups or chords.

Pop the lid on it and turn the gain trimmer pot down to about 9:00.

Thanks Steve, running it on a clean model of a line 6 AMPLIFi 150. It has been working fine up too last night. And I got it right around beginning of December. I appreciate the info big time!! JoeV
