Another Black Box Testimony
I am kind of a low intermediate player. I mostly use my 89 S 10 Zum. I have 3 different amps I use depending on the circumstances. A Nash. 400 with Lemay, A Nash 112 with chip upgrade, and a Profex II with Lemay mod, and batteryless chip thru a little 200 Stewart bridged mono into a 15 BW. I got a Hilton Pedal a Dallas last March and a used Black Box shortly after. I am now able to get very close to the sound I like on each setup. I don't think we ever get completely there, but this is by far as close as I have gotten. Usually a slight adjustment to the knob on the Black Box is all that is required to adjust to the venue. The effect is subtle and you need to use it for a while to appreciate it, but I'd hate to have to do without mine now.

I've had a BB for a couple of months and I love it! It fattens up the tone quite a bit. The wound strings sound cleaner and more distinct, not muddy. I really notice it on the upper frets, above fret 12. The wound strings sound very clear and separate. The best way to hear the difference: play through your BB for a few minutes, and then bypass (unhook) it, and play your steel. The difference is quite noticeable IMHO.
