Valeton GP-100 - "Built Touch and Sounds Great... with a Ton of Options!"
Multi-effects and guitar processing units have come a long way. I recall an old rackmount Boss unit with early COSM technology that left a lot to be desired, making it difficult to create some clear-…
Tokai Love Rock - "Chines Tokai Love Rock, good, but not extremely good"
MY Tokai Love Rock had not been produced from mahogany, and has no maple cap I think, just a flame maple veneer, which looks great, but has no effect of the sound. Hoever, it's pickups are decent, en…
Brière Pedals Drive Factory - "Great Sound and Plenty of Options, from Clean Boost to Heavy Distortion"
Christian Briére hit a homerun with the Drive Factory, and in a number of ways. First, the most important aspect of a drive is its sound, and the Drive Factory sounds darn good. It has a medium grai…
Fender Hot Rodded American Fat Tele - "Hot Rodded Telecaster 2001"
I can confirm words from previous reviews. I found it and bought as my first Fender guitar. It plays with many tones and humbacker is really impressive. Only one small notice is that the volume and…
Hagerman Amplification Overdrive - "Warm and Dynamic only begins to describe the quality of this overdrive"
The term ‘organic’ may be overused in the music industry, and perhaps a bit of a peculiar nomenclature to describe circuits and electronics, but its applicable nonetheless when comparing sounds that …
Strobel Guitars Strobelcaster - "A Travel Guitar that is Gig Ready - plays well and sounds excellent"
Take a Fender Stratocaster, reduce its body mass to make it lighter, make it headless for better sustain, give it a detachable (interchangeable) neck for even more compact transport for travel/carry-…
Music Man Axis (1996) - "Beware - the Axis has been cheapened down over the years!"
I owned a 2013 standard USA Axis and a 2014 Axis Ball Family Reserve (a.k.a. "BFR" model) for a few years. It had been nearly 20 years since I had played an EVH Music Man signature, so I had little t…
Sonicake Fazy Cream - "From Classic Fuzz to Full Bore Modern Distortion-Fuzz"
It’s a great time to be a guitarist, with so many affordable effects coming to market. Sonicake certainly fills that niche with their line-up of effects, and the Fazy Cream muff-style fuzz pedal is n…
dpFX Pedals Eris Dual Distortion - "Two Distortion, Each with Unique Tone Characteristics (Classic & Modern)"
One issue that many people have with dual-distortion pedals is that often both ‘sides’ (the two channels) consist of the same voicing, whereas you change those voices by way of the EQ, how much Gain …

Morley 20/20 Distorsion Wah - "Classic Distortion Tone with a Wide Sweeping Wah"
If having a wah pedal isn’t enough, Morley reinvented the concept to include an effect that nearly anyone can appreciate and wants – a Distortion + Wah. Morley also has a Fuzz Wah, for those who can’…
dpFX Pedals Nemesis+ Fuzz w/Expression - "Perhaps the most flexible and diverse fuzz pedal"
Not all fuzzes are created equal, and the Nemesis + Fuzz/Expression, by DPFX (direct in Greece) proves that point. (FYI: available on Reverb, but do search Nemesis fuzz, since there is a Nemesis dela…
Morley 20/20 Lead Wah - "The Sweep and Tone with High-Gain is Unbeatable"
Morley’s Lead Wah is one of the latest in the 20/20 family with many of the same great features. It is a switchless, optical wah, which means there are no pots to wear or get scratchy, and you merel…
TL Pedals Honker Overdrive - "Great Tone with Lots of Volume and Drive"
The Honker Overdrive, by TL Pedals, certainly impresses and delivers. Engineered in Atlantic Canada, this soft-clipping style transparent overdrive is a take on the famous Tube Screamer, but with sev…
