    I believe older Line 6 stuff had reversed polarity and so there are L6 adaptors around that reverse the polarity. I have a Stomp and it's centre - ve. It does have a slightly bigger power jack so you still need an adaptor. 

    Thanks for clarifying, that makes sense! I had a 25cm power connector cable made up with 2.1mm and 2.5mm sockets but hadn't been brave enough to try it! 😉

  2. I decided to give this thing a go and picked up an HX Effects - it's starting to make sense.

    Quick question on power supplies if anyone knows, I have a Truetone CS7 which will power the HX Effects - but I keep seeing mentions on other forums about using the supplied adapters and polarity reverser. Now, the CS7 is centre negative and the supplied HX power supply is also centre negative...am I missing something here? Looks like there should be no need to reverse polarity.

    But, I did blow up the band lights once, so.....🙄

    This thread has been enlightening so far for this very reason. I feel bad, as I really appreciate the input, but very little has hit the mark for me yet.

    I think the thing is to not place too much weight on how the original version sounds - take the song and do what sounds good for your band with it.

  4. Pickin' a Chicken - Eve Boswell (my Mum once used this song to explain how great rock and roll and The Beatles were to me - evidently before them there was just 'rubbish' like this - I refused to believe there could be a song about pickin' a chicken - how wrong I was....)
