Since the Femtaur Boost Overdrive arrived here at the shop 3 years ago, we’ve had the pleasure of getting to check out a bunch of effects from Kink Guitar Pedals, located in Cranbourne, Australia. Each has been unique and exciting, but with a cohesiveness to the brand that makes them all work well as a group. Today, we’re taking a look at our 5th Kink pedal, the Atomic Spaghetti Overdrive Tremolo, which is exactly as fun...

We’ve been in the Kink Guitar Pedals camp since we first took their Femtaur Boost Overdrive for a spin back in 2019, and we haven’t looked back. Today’s pedal from Melbourne, Australia, the Dozer Fuzz, uses a deceivingly simple set of controls to create a HUGE wave of fuzzy tone, working with multiple instruments and crushing everything in its path. It’s about to get doomy in here, prepare yourself… The...

The Femtaur Boost Overdrive and Blazed Fuzz were the first two units we had the privilege to check out from Kink Guitar Pedals, and both were quite impressive. For Round Three, they wanted us to peruse the Absolution Fuzz V3, a pedal with some serious gusto and attitude (as if you couldn’t tell that from the graphics). Just a couple of knobs and one switch, this badass pedal will show you the true meaning of FUZZ. The layout of...

Looking back, it seems we should have featured today’s pedal yesterday, as you can clearly see from the artwork (Happy Belated 4/20, all!). No matter, we’re still gonna crush some faces with the Blazed Fuzz, another killer effects from our friends Kink Guitar Pedals down in Cranbourne, Australia. The clearly Jamaican-influenced graphics are a stark contrast to the down-and-dirty sounds this pedal creates, but in absolutely...

The Infamous Klon. Tons of debates about this one: some swear by it, some think it’s incredibly overpriced, some just want one to add to a collection of status symbol pedals and some just like the way it sounds, period. Since the majority of us don’t have roughly $2,000 to drop on one pedal, there are companies like Kink Guitar Pedals who make it easy for us to get the Klon sound affordably. Their Femtaur pedal is what...

Jeff Lewis Northampton, Massachusetts Sun Parade http://www.thesunparade.com/ How long have you been a musician? How did you get into it in the first place? I’ve been obsessed with music for most of my life. I started playing guitar and mandolin when I was 9 or 10. My dad was always in bands when I was growing up so I was always surrounded by his and his bandmates’ rehearsals and great vibes. He got me started on both instruments and...
