I’ve never been a “pedal guy”. Fiddly bits of gear that pretty much work at their own convenience, and, despite the nickname “stomp box”, break half the time when you stomp on ’em. Now that you can buy hand-wired effects pedals that cost HUNDREDS (!) of dollars, there’s always someone ready to take the piss.
Witness RedTelectronix Custom Effects. Obviously, he feels about pedals pretty much the same as I do. And no, Rick, this isn’t about your current love affair with the wah-wah. I’ve always hated pedals.
