I've been out in Chicago for work this past week, meetings and political intrigue galore. What fun. Decided to take yesterday afternoon off for some shopping. Accidentally ended up in a guitar store and bought two new sweet effects pedals. First of I got the classic Nano Clone:
It's a beaut, does a really nice range of chorus, from nice subtle doubling to wacked out of tune fat madness. Ace.
Second up I got a Holy Stain (huh huh Stain):
This little bad boy does two reverbs (one kind of normal, one really dubby), pitch shift (fun, but never that useful imho) and a tremelo (which is really nice). Also has two really fat meaty distortions - mmmmm.
Hopefully we'll be back in the studio next week so I can try them out. We've been trying to organise some gigs for December (yes, you read that right, plural!), and a charity night thing for the
Malawi Education Project for the new year, so we'd better get our skates on!
