WAY HUGE CAMEL TOE
Yep, Way Huge is finally
reissuing the unfortunately
named dual overdrive that
combines a Red Llama and
a Green Rhino into a single
rock-tastic package. Guitarists
have been clamoring since the
re-launch of Way Huge for a
Camel Toe reissue. Sure, the
Green Rhino and Red Llama
have been back in production
for a few years now. But Mike Campbell of the Heartbreakers doesn’t use
a Green Rhino and a Red Llama—he uses a Camel Toe and with it, creates
some of the best sounds on Earth. For bonus points, the reissue Camel Toe
adds a tone control to the Red Llama side. This should be great for those
players who feel there is too much high-end in the Llama circuit. The Camel
Toe reissue should hit stores in September.
CUSACK PEDAL
CRACKER
Me, I’m a reluctant vocalist with
a serious pedal habit . . . if only
there was some way to hide
behind—I mean, use—all of my
pedals on my vocals. Thanks to
the fine folks over at Cusack,
I’ll soon have that option. The
Pedal Cracker offers controls for
Wet, Dry, and Gain and switches
for Bypass and a momentary
on-off switch. It also offers a
mini-switch to allow for trails (in case you are running a delay or reverb). I’m
looking forward to running some gritty vocals and probably some Beatlesesque rotating speaker vocals. POG and Whammy vocals are sure to be fun
as well. I. Can’t. Wait.
