| Guitar multi-effect pedal. Made by Digitech. (EM.XAS-EC)
Ever wanted to sound exactly like guitar legend Eric Clapton? Now you can sound like EC did at some of the most celebrated performances of his career -- the Digitech Crossroads effect pedal allows you to capture seven of EC's best-known signature tones! In conjunction with Eric Clapton, Digitech has helped recreate some of EC's most famous tones in the DigiTech® Crossroads Artist Series pedal by applying new Production Modeling™ technology.This revolutionary technology was designed to help reproduce the studio and live sounds and effects of an artist as heard on their recordings. This includes modeling the speaker cabinets, microphones with their placement, pre/post effects, and the recording engineer’s magic all in one pedal. The Crossroads Artist Series pedal was conceived in conjunction with Eric Clapton and his long-time guitar tech Lee Dickson. Crossroads models seven Clapton signature tones. From songs like “Badge” with its swirling rotary speaker, to “Layla” (Unplugged) with its intimate acoustic tone, and of course, “Sunshine of Your Love” which features Eric’s signature “woman tone”, Crossroads spans 30 years of Clapton culture and tone. MODELS INCLUDE: - “Sunshine of Your Love”: Eric achieved his now infamous “woman tone” by running his amps as hot and loud as possible, rolling back the tone control on his SG and engaging his wah-wah to a fixed position.
- “Crossroads”: A pivotal moment in Eric’s career, “Crossroads” was penned by Robert Johnson, Eric’s most important guitar influence. Its electrified delta blues form evolved from Eric’s days with the Bluesbreakers.
- “Layla”: Eric’s most recognized guitar riff and song feature him on “Brownie,” his Fender® Strat™ guitar, through a tweed Fender® Champ™ amplifier.
- “Badge”: Eric used a rotating organ speaker for the swirling guitar breaks between the verse and chorus. This sound was achieved by overdriving the amplifier within the rotary speaker and by strategically placing two microphones around the rotating speakers and panning their signals into a stereo field.
- “Layla” (Acoustic): A pivotal moment in Eric’s career was his live acoustic performance on the MTV™ television series “Unplugged”. This setting transforms your electric guitar signal into Eric’s vintage acoustic heard on this performance.
- “Lay Down Sally” is a country style shuffle featuring Eric and George Terry in a counterpoint guitar duet.
- “Reptile”: Eric’s title track on his 2001 release “Reptile” features a classic Gibson® L-5 jazz guitar played through his custom Cornell tweed combo. Some chorusing and reverb were added during mixdown.
