Pedals are an interesting topic with some guitarists collecting many different kinds, while others taking the less is more approach. What pedals are you currently using and are any of them custom made for you?

I try to keep it simple, the more pedals you have the more things can break when you are on tour hahaha. And pedals are expensive. But this is what’s on my board now:

– Boss Chromatic Tuner – Wampler Plexi-Drive – Himmelstrutz Fetto (Got this a looong time ago from the guy who makes them and I have use it a lot live and on recordings, it’s a killer!) – Dunlop Fuzzface Mini – EHX Memory Man Deluxe (no it’s not reeeeeally old, it’s just rusty hahaha) – EHX Holy Grail Nano – EHX Wah Wah
