Although it's often sold as an overdrive, the BE-OD's range goes from a subtle-yet-present overdrive to a high-gain organic distortion. Not only its knobs allow you to find that sweet spot that you have in your head, but it's inside knob controls the overall amount of gain, giving you extra possibilities to play with. In the beginning I found it a little noisy (hizz), and it was actually frustrating to see (home) videos and (amateur) demos on Youtube without that annoying noise, but once I reduced the drive with the inner knob, everything went terrific! I really like its Tight knob. It compresses even more your signal if needed, giving you that punch you want for rhythm guitar. It's my weapon of choice for the solos. The only thing I'd change is the accessibility to that inner knob: you have to unscrew and take off the back cover in order to access to it, so you cannot turn it in the middle of a song, but not a big issue, actually.

The Phaser. Not too bright, not too dark: the exact balance. It won't drop nor boost nor distort your signal. A little pricey, but worths every dime.

Practical, realiable, portable and easy to use. This is the TC Electronic Polytune Clip.

It has become my main overdrive. It can go from a subtle drive, to a high-gain distortion, but I use it mainly for "coloring" my tone when using the bridge humbucker of my HSS Strat. I really like that it goes very well either picking or strumming. Whether you play blues or any variant of pop and/or rock, you'll find this pedal very versatile, and I think THAT'S the keyword: versatility.

True bypass, Bias, Wah-Q controls and two EQ knobs, what else could you ask to a wah pedal? Smaller that the majority of wah pedals out there, this one has been ont of the best investments I've made on my gear.

After a light modification, this classic turned into a dependable drive. Check out this video where I match it vs a Surh Riot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=is-kyqOHWkg

It only took one of the high current outputs and a daisy chain to feed 8 pedals in a row. Yes, I had delay and reverb, and God in Heavens knows how much current they take. It's awesome! No noise nor hum at all. With isolated outputs, this power supply is an excelent choice if you want to feed up those nice pedals on your board.

Simple, usable, reliable and amusing. You can spend a lot of time practicing with this little but awesome pedal.

This is one of the most reliable volume pedals out there. Built like a tank, you'll never suffer for a ridiculously thin cable that breaks at any time. (Yes, I'm watchin' at you, Ernie Ball!). Trust me: its solid construction is very good, and it has the ability to work as an expression pedal too. Sweet! It comes with a knob that allows us to set the min. volume level. Finally, you can tighten or loosen the sensibility thanks to a screw. It's a little heavy, (not much, actually), and being the volume pedal of the most used elements in our gear, you'll thank its comfort and durability. Great job, Boss!

Forget about that noisy and annoying feedback. Just put (carefully) this item, and go. As known, it will reduce some high frequencies, but nothing that cannot be fixed with some EQ arrangements.

Unbreakable, but it can get a little rusty inside.

Reliable and low-cost in the same product? Yes, it's possible! To be honest, my first impression when the GC salesman showed me a "fine and cheap tuner" was something like "OK, my bad. I should know that those two words sometimes just don't match together", but I am actually impressed: this tuner is the best option when you are surrounded by other noisy instruments, and the drummer is like "pum-badum-tsss-pum!" at the rehearsal room. Don't get angry! Just clip on the SN1 Tuner and do the job as smooth as it sounds, 'cause it tunes by the vibration of your instrument, not by sound! Great, isn't it? In theory, you could tune up your arm if it vibrated. The SN1 is powered up by a CR2032 battery, just like that one that you find inserted in your PC's motherboard, so if it needs to be replaced, just go to the nearest Radio Shack, grab a bunch of them, and you're ready to tune up again. EDIT: After a year, it stopped working :(

Strings, strings, strings! One of the eternal debates in life. At least, in guitarists' lives. We all know the quality that Elixir strings brings in every set. The durability, cleanness and sound is legendary. Plus, the NanoWeb coat helps to get rid of the dirt, sweat and other uncool substances present on your fingers. Yes, we all sweat and there's nothing to do about it. So, help yourself and keep the new-string tone by choosing a quality set like this one.

I never thought that a quality cable was capable of improving my guitar sound. My pair of Monster Jazz cables accomplishes that. Lifetime warranty and golden and oxygen-free plugs, what else could I want?

Podcasting, recording guitars, voices and MIDI keyboards, are some of the tasks that I'm able to perform thanks to my Scarlett interface. Those preamps... lovely!

Variety is the word I'd use to describe this red pedal. Plenty of different options that allows you to spend a lot of time turning the knobs and creating nice atmospheres around your sound. As a side note, I'd be more than happy when TC Electronic (and many other manufacturers) include a power adaptor with every pedal effect they sale. But that's another issue. Great value-price ratio.

The GPCPA4 adds more tonal color and variety. The model features a 14-fret cutaway with fast and comfortable Performing Artist profile necks, and Fishman’s F1 Analog onboard electronics. Perfect for any performing artist.
