Today’s Show Me Your Pedalboard entry comes from Cas all the way from the Netherlands. Cas plays bass in dutch pop band Rondé and it looks like they’ve developed quite a following for themselves! Word! Cas prides himself on working unconventional sounds into pop music, and his board is very indicative of that. He also has some of my favorite pedals ever! You’re just showing me what I want to see!

Today’s entry for the Pedals and Effects 5 features long time pedal fiend and friend to Pedals and Effects, Jonathan Hischke.

Read MoreHere we go with Pedals And Effects Top Ten Pedals for 2015 and this year came with some radical sounds! As the boutique pedal dominance continues in the industry, a couple of the big guys managed to come up with some over the top pedals.

Read MoreIt’s always fun when I get to do a post on a rare, discontinued pedal that sounds great and was insanely cheap. So today’s post is about a pedal I found on a recent dig, the Multivox CB 1 Chorus Box. Made in the 1970’s, the CB 1 is an awesome chorus box with a super musical vibrato effect!
Read MoreToday’s Show Me Your Pedalboard entry comes from bass player Tony! Tony is rocking an incredibly modest, but colorful board. These tiny boards are phenomenal for traveling with, especially when you have to deal with public transportation, going from venue to venue, or even if you’re just biking around town.

Well, when someone is given pedals as gifts, we feel obligated to at least do a video featuring the pedals, so here are DOD’S FX58 Metal Maniac and FX59 Thrash Master distortions!
