Epic Delay Pedal Shoot Out

July 20th 2010

This is an epic video shot in an absolutely EPIC studio featuring a bunch of delay pedals head to head. I highly suggest you check it out in Hi-Def too. The video features the following delay pedals: Moog MF-100, Empress Superdelay Dr. Scientist Sunny Day Way Huge Aqua-Puss MXR Carbon Copy Toneczar Echoczar Electro-Harmonix Memory [...]

Earthquaker Hoof Fuzz

July 20th 2010

I’m not generally a fan of straight out fuzz pedals, but this has some really nice sounds. Seems quite versatile too. Meet the Earthquaker Hoof Fuzz, a germanium / silicon hybrid fuzz pedal that’s reminiscent of the old green russian big muff of yesteryear, but with a tighter response and more defined personality. Copious gain and [...]

Solid Gold FX Electroman

July 6th 2010

I don’t often get excited by delay pedals, but the Solid Gold Electro man does something a little different. The momentary switch “Warp” drives the pedal into self oscillation, and the sonic possibilities of this are “warping” my mind. The other feature I love is the Tone control, which shapes the tone of the delays [...]

Are you the gate keeper?

June 30th 2010

One of the most talked about pedals at the 2010 Summer NAMM show wasn’t an effects stomp at all… it was the Pigtronix Keymaster Re-amp Effects Mixer. So what does this nifty looking box do? For that we turn it over to Pigtronix’s top hog Dave Koltai to give us a walk-thru of this unique [...]

I want this so bad I’m tremolo-ing in my boots

June 28th 2010

Tremolo is such an under-rated effect. When people think of tremolo, they usually think of some slow twanging country/western track, or surf music. While that may be true, there is so much you can do with it, as shown in this video. The Earthquaker Hummingbird is a unique, stuttering tremolo pedal based on the vintage [...]

New Ozzy Guitarist Likes Black Fire

June 28th 2010

One of the things I find annoying about a lot of the current heavy music genre is that so many of the guitar tones sound the same. The tone coming from this pedal is not. Sure it is heavy, crunchy, but to my ears it has a certain X factor that makes it stand out [...]

Weekend Wonders : Cry Baby Wah

June 26th 2010

I can certainly attest to how tough these suckers are. I had a full PA stack get knocked over and fall on this thing at a gig. It survived, and is yet to skip a beat some 10 years on. Every guitarist should own a wah, and this is as classic as it gets.

Is this the best sounding Wah in the world?

June 17th 2010

This is possibly the BEST sounding wah pedal I have ever heard. It has the exact range and tone that I think of when I hear a wah tone in my head. The mid point growl is absolutely guttural, and I love it. I would have loved to have seen this though set clean in [...]
