[quote name='Rowbee' post='466820' date='Apr 19 2009, 05:11 PM']Forgive my ignorance but is the XO the latest model like the one on the EHX website? Is it true bypass? That's pretty important to me.[/quote]
Sorry you missed out, yea the XO is the newer small one shown on the site, the general consensus is that the old one sounds better, warmer and more analog, but it has a terrible bypass, is the size of a small island nation, and uses a non-standard power supply. The new XO one apparently (I haven't played one) doesn't sound as good, but it's small, true bypass and takes 9v, so i spose it's a matter of choice, one thing i'll say is the bypass on the old one IS terrible, very noticeable, if I'd kept it I was gonna do a true bypass mod, apparently it has a true bypass switch, it's just not connected for true bypass, but if you're not good with soldering you could just get a truebypass loop pedal, they're pretty cheap
