Whenever possible, demonstrate AFX pedals in stereo for maximum impact
•
mphasize the natural tone of the instrument before cranking up the effect. Then, turn the
• E
pedal on and off to show that the natural guitar sound isn't buried or overly colored, even
with the effect all the way up.
When demoing an AFX Delay: Set a delay to "Long" mode, press and hold the switch until
•
the light flashes. Play a short rhythm phrase, release the switch. Improvise over the loop
you just created.
Develop a repertoire of appropriate licks to highlight each type of AFX effect

"Why haven't I heard about acoustic stompboxes before?"
"It's never been done with as much attention to detail. Acoustic products
are Fishman's specialty, and AFX is changing the market."
"Is $250 on the high side for a stompbox?"
"Not for pro gear, many boutique effects sell for much more.
Fishman's prices are very competitive for such high quality products."
"You bought a great sounding guitar, why compromise your tone by using
electric guitar pedals?"
