When i got the first visual of this pedal I thought it would something completely different. It's a three mode overdrive distortion pedal that uses a massive swivel pedal with three set points to select the drive mode. I was hoping it would be a pedal that rocks like a wah, and the change in position changes the amount of gain being used. I've played with effects like that on mutli effects units that have an "expression" pedal and always thought it woukld be a cool thing to see in a stand alone OD effect.
Oh well.

At least over at the site they have some sound samples to give you an idea. have a look and see what you think.
With the amount of Les Paul inspired guitars out there, it still confuses me how Gibson thought the suit against Paul Reed Smith would float when there are Les Paul style guitars that are more Les Paul that the PRS Single Cuts. This is one of them. It's the new Reverend Roundhouse HB-FM.
I'm not saying that as a bad thing. I'm just saying the profile is much more akin than the PRS is. But regardless, Reverend make great guitars no matter what the inspiration. The latest is no exception.
* Solid maple-flame veneer top on solid korina
* Two Reverend humbucker pickups
* 3-Way pickup switch
* Wilkinson staggered EZ-Lock tuners
* Volume, Tone, and Bass Contour (bass roll off) controls
* 24.75" scale, set-neck one-piece mahogany with graphite nut and tilt-back headstock
* Dual-action truss rod
* Rosewood fingerboard with 12" radius and 22 frets.
I still don't think I can get used to the pick up selector all the way down there, but I won't know until I play one. Reverend, wanna send me a test model?
A new pedal from SD and this one is called the Twin Tube Mayhem. You guess it. It's got two tubes in it and it's a little crazy.
It has the typical features, 3-band EQ with high and low mid switch, gain and level controls, 4 or 8 dB switchable boost, and comes packed with two Phillips Sylvania 6205 tubes.
Diesel has always been one of my favourite guitarists. Even back in the "Injectors" days, I found myself rocking out to the blues rock styling of the man in question. So the news that he was bringing out an instructional DVD had me salivating profusely. Diesel is without a doubt one of the most underrated guitarists/singers in the world today. His solo performances are something not to be missed.
Diesel is currently touring around Australia with the following dates.
