Mike Campbell's Effects Pedals

"It's an original Camel Toe. He's got three of them. We found three of them. It's what he likes. And Dunlop was going to do a version put out by Dunlop called Campbell Toe for Mike Campbell - a smaller version. That may or may not happen," says Mike Campbell's guitar tech about the Way Huge Camel Toe Triple Overdrive.

Campbell himself mentions the Daddy O in this September 1999 "Spotlight on a Heartbreaker" interview from the official Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers website.

26) Hank asked: I saw that you use those Danelectro pedals. Can you tell me your settings on the Daddy-O? For settings on the Danelectro pedal consult [email protected]. 27) Randy in NC and Greg asked: What is your stage amp setup and what pedals do you use? I saw what looked like several Vox AC-30's. Are your AC-30's top Boosted? I use a vintage AC-30 ( with top boost I think) with wah wah Roland delays, Danelectro Daddy-O --- also a Kustom200 and sometimes a Bassman amp. Also on the last tour the soundman had a feed from a Groove Tube preamp for the PA only.
