I saw this over at GearTrap, one of my new favourite sites. This is a very nice sounding fuzz pedal. I’ve always associated fuzz pedals with over the top crazy tone, but this does some beautiful lower gain tones as well.

Moog at Namm

More on the Moog I talked about earlier. Here is a video showing how the electromagnets affect the strings, and more of an idea on what you can actually do with it.

Worlds Biggest Pedal Board at Summer Namm

No need for words, just look at the video.

Keely Mod of a Boss DS1

Robert Keeley is known for modifying pedals, and with good reason. The difference in tone he is able to achieve with his mods is absolutely amazing. If you ever wondered why people take their very expensive pedals and have them modified, I present to you some video proof of the difference it can make.

Behringer Trio Pedal Train

Behringer Trio Packs
My love of Behringer is well noted, so I am very pleased with these packs. Behringer have bundled their fabulous pedals into several packs as a jumping off point for musicians to get classic tones of various genres, and titled them the Trio Pedal Train. The packs are as follows:

METAL TRIO TPK985
Distortion, Multi-FX and Digital Delay Guitar Effects Package Including Cables

  • The SUPER METAL SM400 boasts brutal distortion, mind-blowing sustain and the sound of an overdriven stacked tube amp
  • The DIGITAL MULTI-FX FX600 features 24-bit high-resolution stereo effects such as Flanger, Chorus, Phaser, Delay, Tremolo and Pitch Shifter
  • The DIGITAL DELAY DD400 provides 24-bit high-resolution stereo delay/echo using RSM (Real Sound Modeling) for delay time up to 1.3 s

BLUES ROCK TRIO TPK987
Amp Modeling, Vibrato and Delay Guitar Effects Package Including Cables

  • The TUBE AMP MODELER TM300 comes with authentic modeling technology that lets you easily achieve the most sought-after tube amp sounds from clean, crunch to super-fat distortion
  • The ULTRA VIBRATO UV300 lets you experience classic and mind-bending, dimensional vibrato effects of the ’60s and ’70s
  • The DIGITAL DELAY DD400 provides 24-bit high-resolution stereo delay/echo using RSM (Real Sound Modeling) for delay time up to 1.3 s

BASS TRIO TPK988
Overdrive, Limiter enhancer and Chorus Effects Pedals for Bass Guitar Including Cables

  • The BASS OVERDRIVE BOD400 provides tube-like distortion and super fat tone, with Balance control to blend between overdriven and dry bass sound for maximum punch
  • The BASS LIMITER ENHANCER BLE100 smoothes out harsh volume peaks when using dynamic slaps or other playing styles
  • The BASS CHORUS BCH100 gives you super thick chorus with unbelievable stereo effect

KEYBOARD TRIO TPK989
Tremolo, Chorus and Digital Multi-FX Pedals for Keyboards Including Cables

  • The ULTRA TREMOLO UT100 delivers the classic, warm and mind-bending tremolo effects of vintage ’60s amps
  • The ULTRA CHORUS UC200 gives you super-thick chorus with unbelievable stereo effect
  • The DIGITAL MULTI-FX FX600 features 24-bit high-resolution stereo effects including Flanger, Chorus, Phaser, Delay, Tremolo and Pitch Shifter

The packs come with all the cables as well. No word that i can see on pricing, but I’d guess in the vicinity of $120.

I think they are on to something here. Perhaps they should branch ut into other accessory packs as weel. here are a few of my suggestions:

  • Delta Blues : Pill bottle, tobacco and map to the crossroads.
  • Grunge : Fuzz distortion pedal, drug of choice and Courtney Love
  • Emo : Super tight distortion pedal, eyeliner, ticket to Mexico

Any other suggestions?
