The perfect pedal for the guitarist who always wants to speak to the sound manager!

The next time an aggrieved suburban white woman tells me “I don’t like your tone,” I’ll break out this pedal and tweak the Live, Love, and Laugh knobs appropriately.

(And yes, accordions and other keyboards sound pretty metal when run through distortion. If you don’t believe me, listen to some Nine Inch Nails or Van Halen’s And the Cradle Will Rock, where the “guitar” sound is actually a Wurlitzer piano via a flanger and Eddie’s Marshall stack.)

Thanks to Voltaire Ramos for the find!

Happy Mother’s Day, Mom!

That’s what we call ’em in Tampa*

* Not really.

I’m still wondering why none of the Halloween costume places have announced “sexy” Tiger King-based costumes. This is precisely the sort of thing they’d capitalize on.
