Not Our Usual Instalment of Effect Pedal Effervescence




Is it excess though? Never I says.

Something a little different this time around. We thought it might be nice to celebrate some of the Musicmaker's pedal videos of yesteryear.

While we are currently under the tutelage and stewardship of the Father of Fuzz and the Director of Drive and Delay, there was a time before this time. A time when things were simpler perhaps. I believe our videological evolution is getting so much better but there's no harm in having a little look at the past.

Let's check out a few older videos for a little bit of fun.

Feel free to like and subscribe to our Youtube channel in general, it is always improving. Particularly if you like Effects Pedals.

And what's not to love there.
