This week I’m giving away a Digitech Hot Head distortion pedal. Someone gave this to me several years ago and I’ve never used it. It’s still in the box and taking up room on my shelves so I thought I would just give it away on Pickstroke. Here is what DIGITECH has to say about it: The axiom “the right tool for the right job” is something musicians live by and strive to find. For those looking to get the high-gain crunchy tone of a driven stack whether you are playing straight ahead rock-n-roll or higher gain modern rock, you have found your tool. If you are looking for a little grit or you want your amp to sound like a full stack, the Hot Head pedal is the right tool for you. DigiTech delivers all this tone packed in a rugged metal chassis with standard dual outputs (amp and mixer) as well as giving you low and high tone controls so you can shape your tone to exactly what you are looking for. The Hot Head is the right tool for the job. But don’t take our word plug in and find out why everyone agrees! You can also [ Read More ]
Chris at Gravity Guitar Picks has created a great product. Guitar Picks can be a blessing or a nightmare. There are so many thicknesses, shapes and materials to choose from. I once had a guitar teacher who insisted that I use a hard jazz pick which he said would help me develop speed and consistency. I couldn’t use it. I need a larger thin pick. From the website: These picks are made out of sheets of cast acrylic. They are then laser engraved and cut out into the individual picks. Next is to grind and polish each pick one by one. Thats basically it. Acrylic is a fun material that comes in lots of colors and thicknesses. Look through our variety of shapes and thicknesses to find the pick that is perfect for your playing style. In addition to shape and thickness, each Gravity Pick is available in a Mini, Standard, and XL size. Our goal is to create guitar picks that will truly enhance your playing experience. These handmade jewels are crafted one at a time with great care and precision. This revolutionary guitar pick looks, feels and plays above and beyond what is currently on the market. If [ Read More ]
