J. Rockett Uni-Verb

Modulation + Reverb combo pedals have been a thing for a while now, but in most, if not all cases these are effects targeting the ambient/psychedelic guitarist, featuring long reverbs and a variety of swirly modulation options. The J. Rockett Uni-Verb - as we have come to expect by the…Click on the title for more

Funny Little Boxes 1991 “Pearl Jam” Distortion

The dude at the Let's Play All YouTube Channel is very much into the guitar sound of the '90s, and some time in the first half of 2021 he asked a friend at Funny Little Boxes (a small UK pedal builders) if he could create a pedal that reproduced the…Click on the title for more

Spaceman Effects Delta II Tremolo

Notably, Portland's Spaceman Effects didn't have a compact tremolo in their roster until today, the day they released the Delta II. The rather simple interface can be misleading: this pedal can deliver a wide variety of rhythmic and tone-shaping options, from the traditional to the adventurous. The Lag knob is…Click on the title for more

Wampler Moxie Overdrive

The Wampler Moxie is yet another dirt box (in mini format) inspired by the most popular overdrive of all times, but with a couple of tricks up its sleeve.

Hailing from Greece, the Tsakalis Audioworks Six serves up a strictly analog buffet of dirt circuitry, with six different selectable modes inspired by such revered gain devices as the Analogman KOT, Marshall Bluesbreaker, Paul C Timmy and more.

ProCo RAT2 Distortion

The ProCo RAT2 distortion pedal is an update on a classic from the early 1980s. With an appearance similar to the footswitch of a Marshal Amplifier, the pedal’s sound is reminiscent of the dirty channel on those British tube amps.

PastFX Stereo Chorus PX65

Australian PastFX makes it quite clear that it's in the business of recreating/improving existing effect circuits. With the Stereo Chorus PX65 they keep faith with this philosophy by releasing an evolution of the DOD FX65 Stereo Chorus. The original was probably the first almost compact stereo chorus on the market (we…Click on the title for more

J. Rockett El Hombre Overdrive

Remember that creepy movie from the '90s by Jennifer Lynch called "Boxing Helena? Well, the J. Rockett El Hombre overdrive could be the sequel of it, entitled "Boxing Billy Gibbons" (of ZZ Top fame).
