Fuzz Wars: Beetronics, Land Devices, Adventure Audio, Way Huge

Pedals and Effects is back with a long awaited entry to our fuzz war series! We got Beetronics from LA, Land Devices from the Bay Area, Adventure Audio from Rochester NY, and Jeorge Tripp’s Way Huge (also from LA). You know the drill, we run some riffs through the pedals, compare, contrast, and see what stands out. All’s fair in love and fuzz!

Fuzz Wars 2018

Nick is out on tour and I'm backed up with fuzz pedals! I decided to roll solo for this one, and shoot out some cool new fuzz pedals. On deck we got Dusky Electronics, AC Noises, Way Huge, and Spruce Effects. We haven't done one of these in a while, but I'm super stoked to see what's new in the fuzz world!

Picking up where we left off last time with Jeorge, Nick and I are treated to a Way Huge retrospective.

In conversation: Jeorge Tripps of Way Huge Electronics

This summer Nick and I got to hang with Jeorge Tripps, the mastermind of Way Huge Electronics, in his secret lab in Los Angeles! Like me, Jeorge is LA through and through, from his time in the early 90's building electronics from scratch, going to Santa Monica college, to Way Huge partnering with Dunlop, we sat down with Jeorge and talked about his musical career, and all things Way Huge, past, present and future!

Fuzz Wars: Way Huge, Rabbit Hole FX, Rocket Surgeon, & Analogman

Fuzz Wars: Way Huge, Rabbit Hole FX, Rocket Surgeon, & Analogman

Two dudes, four fuzzes, you know what that means...fuzz wars! Although maybe it's not necessarily a "war" this time around, as these guys are all our friends, and I'm pretty sure they're all friends with each other. So this is more of a fuzz "friendly," or a scrimmage. Got to keep it positive! Either way, we got Way Huge, Rabbit Hole FX, Rocket Surgeon, and Analogman on deck! Nick and I switch off on guitar and bass so let's see how each fuzz compares.

Demo: Tim Lefebvre with Earthquaker Devices & Way Huge

 Demo: Tim Lefebvre with Earthquaker Devices & Way Huge

This is something I have always wanted to capture for Pedals And Effects, where someone comes in and we setup pedals he or she has never spent time with, then that musician comes up with sounds on the spot! When I had the amazing Tim Lefebvre come through to video some stuff for the site, Tim had mentioned he was really interested in Earthquaker Devices pedals and that he had not really had a lot of experience with them (though now he has since acquired some!) so I put Tim and Earthquaker Devices to the test!

We’re back with Show Me Your Pedalboard, where I call on the Pedals And Effects community to send in a picture of their boards for an open discussion. Admar sent his picture of a very neatly organized pedalboard, chained much differently than what we’ve seen before.
