I have waited for this pedal for a long time!   Ever since I first heard Eric Johnson’s magic tone, I’ve wanted one. Well at least since I first learned that he used a fuzz face as part of his legendary magic tone . The funny thing is that I have never been a huge fuzz pedal fan until now. EJ worked closely with Fuzz Face guru Jeorge Tripps to create his signature pedal. It is inspired by EJ’s prized personal Fuzz Faces and is built to his incredibly strict specifications, featuring hand-selected BC183 silicon transistors (for higher gain), custom repro ’68-’69 knobs, and a vintage-style hammertone finish. The result: a beautifully dynamic, expressive, and powerful pedal. “I first heard the Fuzz Face when I was about 12 and loved playing through it,” he says. “It’s the classic tone used by Jimi Hendrix, one of my greatest influences. No other pedal gets this type of sound. It’s the pinnacle of psychedelic fuzz. In the accompamying video we have a quick clip by EMC customer Hale and his EJ rig minutes after hooking up this pedal and taking it for a spin.

The MC404 CAE Wah was developed by Bob Bradshaw of Custom Audio Electronics and the Cry Baby. I’ve been playing around with this Wah, and I have come to discover that it is very cool and different than most wah pedals available. One thing I’ve noticed is how quiet and transparent sounding it is.  I also noticed that it has a very wide sweep range. It features dual Fasel inductors with two voices (a low to high sounding sweep and a low to mid sounding sweep as well), and a built-in MXR MC401 Boost/Line Driver helps you maintain high gain levels for all out kinetic lead wah frenzy . It also boasts true hardwire bypass, a long-life CTS potentiometer, and internal pots for “Q” and gain adjustments, choice between a red and yellow fasel inductor , side-mounted kickswitches; bright LEDs on each side of the wah indicate operation status. Check out this quick demo.  Come down and try it for yourself!

If you’ve ever wondered how the edge from u2 gets that cool effect from a lot of their songs, then you should check this out.

If your looking for a new looper with some extras built in, check out this looper. The Vox VDL1 not only works as a looper but it has an incorporated effects pedal. It also has a whammy and a wah built into it.  Vox even designed effects for the loops themselves. These effects include reverse, fade in and out, shutter, and filter. This is one looper that is definitely worth checking out!
