Huck!

Nope. Not that guy running for a certain political office... a guy I did NOT vote for (in case you care, I didn't vote for John McAmnesty either... that's all I'm saying).

I'm talking about one of my most recent pedal purchases: The Huckleberry. It's basically a Fuzz Face-type circuit with an EQ knob that blends between germanium and silicon transistors. That probably won't mean anything to anyone except me. The important thing is that I'm falling in love with playing guitar again. I seriously cannot remember the last time I had this much fun with a new pedal. I played for over an hour last night just on one pedal setting. It's really sparked my creativity and is moving me into guitar styles I don't normally visit. Worth every penny.

I'm in process of redoing my pedalboard as well. I still need to work out some ideas, but there have been lots of new acquisitions in the past few months. This means that I really need to start selling gear. I'll probably be putting the following items up on ebay:

BOSS DS-1
DOD FX69B
BOSS GT-3
Tech 21 Power Engine 60
Effector 13 Never Drive Plus
Toadworks Death Rattle 2
Ibanez S470
BC Rich Warlock

My Crumar Performer is already up, and is the only Crumar Performer you'll find on the 'bay at this time.

I hate to see some of those pedals go, but they need to leave so I can recoup the costs of things like this:

Ah yes, the Ultra-Lord from Sinister Analog Effects. It's evil, and I like it.
