Mike Fuller comes through again with a pedal that delivers the best elements of Robin Trower’s tone I’m not too nuts about anything “signature”, but sometimes, you have to just let go and admit that something is good. This pedal is good. Fulltone doesn’t make to many bad pedals (who am I kidding?, they’ve not [...]
It was not long ago that guitarists who wanted reverb outside of an amp would have to use either rack-mounted gear, or ridiculously large effects units. The new Hall Of Fame Reverb from TC Electronic is an impressive little stomp box that offers the most popular types of reverb in a very small footprint.
Remember when we were happy with four seconds of sampling time? Those days are over. The DigiTech JamMan Solo Looper offers some serious looping / playback features in a small footprint.
Starting with the TS-808, these little green monsters known as “tube screamers” have been gracing the pedal boards of guitarists for more than 30 years. Over the years, the shade of green and look have the pedal has morphed a bit, but the popularity has never waned.
MXR’s new ’78 Bad Ass is a dammed good distortion pedal that offers true bypass and a warm sound, at a very reasonable price.
If you are looking for the “Perfect” overdrive, this is one you should check out before making a purchase.
Maybe you have an MXR Phase 90, maybe you are thinking of buying one, or maybe you are considering an upgrade. Either way the MXR M-107 Phase 100 is a great alternative to the Phase 90 if you want a bit more control to the overall shape of the wet signal.
If you are looking for an awesome floor-based real tube guitar compressor, the Electro Harmonix Black Finger is highly recommended. It does come at a price, but may well be worth it.
This amazing Fuzz from Fulltone offers an octave-up that is one of the best.
This is a special little combination that really works. Rick Franklin’s mod of the BOSS DS-1 implements the much-needed true bypass that takes this pedal from “working class” to “boutique”.
