Hilton Low Profile Help

Throwing this out to the gurus out there- I bought a used Hilton Low Profile pedal, but the power supply isn’t correct. I’ve ordered the correct one from Hilton, as a possible trouble shooting measure. The pedal works, but the sounds are pure high gain and very distorted. I’ve tried every poss...

Thanks fellas! I’ve been messing around with it- seems like there’s a sweet spot on the bar, I guess I thought it just sat there flat, but I’m realizing that pressure and position make a difference besides just fret position and straight. I get the volume pedal thing- mines not quite here yet....

Update! Got a Mullen D10, BJS bar, a Hilton Vol pedal on the way, and a Nashville 400 amp coming tomorrow. As I was getting ready to fly my new guitar home, I hear Leon try to explain Tempered Tuning, Equal Temperament and the fine art of being able to tune to 335.5 cents. :? Another question I have...

Turns out it’s not a few years younger, but it does have a bunch of higher end touches. What’s the serial number? Mullen keeps track of all the guitar they make, and I found their serial number cross reference page yesterday. Thanks Gary! I might need a good deal on a Hilton pedal and good bar i...

I took a few days off over Thanksgiving, and I never checked back for this thread- Thank you to all who took the time to help me out. I hope to make a deal on a PSG soon, and I'm working with a great guy on some of the pieces needed to make it run. I think Im just waiting on a volume pedal, and I sh...

I was able to reach to Mike at Mullen, he has a D10 that just came into the shop, and there are 2 or 3 on here that are a possibility. Gotta figure which and move onto volume pedals and amps. Sounds like I won’t want to use my Mesa equipment, I should be looking for a Nashville 1-12 or even 1-15. ...

This is similar to another RP I’m looking at on here- The other one has a few more bells and whistles- and is a few years younger- are there any blemishes or scratches on this one? Any close up pictures or info would be greatly appreciated.
