Chords for [BOSS TONE CENTRAL] ME-80 played by Rich Eckhardt

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ Hi, my name is Rich Eckhart.
I'm lead guitarist for country superstar Toby Keith,
and I've [N] created some custom patches for the new BOSS ME-80 multi-effects pedal.
_ Before we get started, I'd like to tell you that the ME-80 was the most user-friendly multi-effects pedal that I've used in a long time.
It comes equipped with a fantastic arsenal of ready-made sounds.
I plugged in, auditioned it for a bit, and within minutes I was editing sounds and storing my patches.
_ I'm going to be using an amp for this demo, but you can play live or record the ME-80 direct out of the pedal. _ _
Here's a patch I created for just basic rock [F#m] rhythm.
_ _ [A] _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _
_ [F#m] _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ [A] I like to keep my [G#] patches simple and user-friendly.
On here I've just a little delay and made a few minor adjustments to the preamp section.
I made no global adjustments to the pedal at all.
Here's another more classic country patch [G] I created.
I [D] _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ [N] just used a smaller amp type on the preamp and a little bit of slapback delay.
[E] _ _ [Am] _ _ [F] _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ [N] _
This is a little bit more of a fun patch.
It's a Prince-like octave setting that I created utilizing more of the [E] ME-80's effects than on most of [F#] my settings. _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [N] _ Alright, I used the ME-80's freeze effect to create this next patch.
I assigned the pedal effects to control the freeze effect.
When I move the pedal forward, the freeze is in play.
[G] When I move it back, the freeze is off.
Watch. _ _

Thanks for watching, and keep jamming. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
