Hilton Pedal & Sustain Unit

Jim Saunders · Post by **Jim Saunders** » 3 Dec 2004 4:49 pm

I'm considering going to the Hilton volume pedal and I'm wondering if my Goodrich Super Sustain unit is compatible with the Hilton pedal. I realize Hilton also sells the sustain unit, so, if I change, will I need both units? I only use the Boss DD3 for effects.

I just did a search on this topic and found quite a few answers. The short answer is that with the Hilton pedal you won't need a sustain unit, Hilton or Goodrich.

Jim I use a Hilton pedal and also a DD-3 when i don,t use my pro-fex and 2 amp,s. I like the sound i get out of it. I bought a new Hilton sustain after i had my pedal and didn,t know that i didn,t need it. Hope this help,s. God Bless==Jim Harper

Jim:
You won't need the sustain with the Hilton. So here is the way to go...sell your sustain, Buy Brad's Black Box and keep the DD/3. It just don't get much better than that.my two pennies

All I'm seeing here is good advice. Man, Guitar+SGBlackBox+Hilton Pedal is the Way to go!!!!!!! You'll be set for as far into the future as I can think of for tone to the bone.
