The JDX captures my sound with previously unobtainable control and clarity, offering our soundman a direct injection of sonic rage!... "Radial gear is incredibly roadworthy and has improved my overall tone. I get less hum and buzz and a cleaner signal. Awesome! Radial gear rules.

At 11:05 in this Rig Rundown from Premier Guitar, Kerry King discusses his Rack Wah. He says “We have the Rack Wah, which I have out there as a back up. The cool thing about this Rack Wah is you can run 6 pedals into that and just have pedals like Kirk Hammet does when he’s playing. He’s got Wahs all over the place because he’s running one of these. But I only do that in one song which we’re not playing right now. I’ll have a way set up on Gary’s side so we can double lead over there. But it’s versatile, you can have a million sounds coming out of it, there’s presets, there’s dials you can dial in the way you want each preset so it’s a really cool piece.“
