Any thoughts on the Surfy Industries Blossom Point?

Bango_Rilla Joined: Jan 06, 2019 Posts: 183 Bananas, TX	Posted on Nov 09 2024 05:42 PM After some trial and error, I moved the Blossom Point off my board. It's absolutely nothing to do with what the pedal is doing or not doing, it's just not what my ape ears are expecting to hear out of my rig. I dig what it does to my tone, when at home fooling around and it NAILS that driven brownface sound. It turns out that's not MY sound (there's another pedal for that). I love all the SurfyBear products and have a bunch of their tanks in my stuff, but the Blossom Point isn't what this ape personally needs for my rig. It will ABSOLUTELY do the driven brownface, so I can recommend it on that level - but it's not going to work for everybody/every situation. — Bango Rilla! DiPintos, Fenders and Reverb (oh, my!)

Please remember, this was recorded on an iPhone, not a professional mic. https://youtu.be/zf_hVBQYai0?feature=shared https://youtu.be/bA6vMILd4n0?feature=shared Dude, that is a bada@@ tone! Thank you very much, that means a lot to me. I always keep my Brownfacer dimed, but I am wondering if somebody messed with it a bit as I had the "community" rig that night. The bottom line... If I am not playing my Showmans, I am using my Brownfacer. I have to work a hell of a lot harder playing the guitar when not using it. — MooreLoud.com - A tribute to Dick Dale.

I also posted about the Surfyman and I am curious about the Blossom Point too because I feel like I am missing something with my sound. I do have a Deco 2 which I use for warm saturation. Would anyone know how the blossom point compares to that pedal? I know the Deco 2 is basically Tape saturation and the Blossom Point is basically a Fender Showman amp. But I never played that amp before. I use my Deco 2 right after my gain as a little compression, but I use it before my time effects like delay / reverb / trem. Thanks Top

Thanks I am a big fan of the Blossom Point. Use it as the last device before the amp and you’ll get a degree of Showman character without having to literally crank up a Showman. It is different from tape compression, working more like a limiter and a beautiful Presence circuit. — The artist formerly known as: Synchro When Surf Guitar is outlawed only outlaws will play Surf Guitar.
