FET Dream

I have had this pedal for a few days now and I can honestly say it is one of the best OD pedals I have heard. And it's Canadian to boot! Made by Cause and Effect Pedals of Mississauga.

From a little "hair" to to a lot of drive the pedal retains the essential tone of your guitar. I can make my 18 watt sound like it's dimed at low volume or give it a little ( or a lot) extra at high volume.

It has a surprisingly small footprint, about two thirds the size of my Pearl Overdrive, with some great graphics and a bright blue LED to let you know when it's on. Not like you need that light but it is cool, none the less.

The web site is here and it's well worth a look if you're in the market for an OD pedal.

Jethro Tull - Aqualung (Live)

Here's one I haven't heard in years. I remember having a good giggle over the lyrics when I was younger. Now I just want to know where Martin Barre got those pants.

Plain enamel wire

I recently lucked in to a nice supply of old formula plain enamel magnet wire. It's a beautiful dark purple, almost black, and smells like magic marker. I've wound a few sets with it now and it really goes on nice. Looks the part as well, much better than the newer plain enamel formulas.

That Buzzing Sound

Excellent article in the New Yorker about hearing damage. I saw this posted on one of the forums and then went back to try and find it and I couldn't.

That Buzzing Sound

It's a pretty important topic for musicians so I thought it wouldn't hurt to post it here. The article actually prompted me to purchase these.

Now I can enjoy my JCM 800 on annihilate again.
