Well, it’s been a helluva ride delving into the big bag of tricks that the folks at Ninevolt Pedals gave us, and today we bring you the last one in their complete series of effects pedals: the excellently-named Skateboarding Bear Metal Distortion. This is a BIG pedal, with tons of volume, attitude and range all in one, plus a drawing of a bear on a skateboard, and who doesn’t love that? A high-gain adventure awaits us all,...

Today’s “invisible” pedal comes to us from Japan, via a small company called Ninevolt Pedals, whose gear we’ve reviewed before (and will again). The 1927 Home Run King Compressor seeks to achieve the same tones as high-end studio compressors, all wrapped up in a nice,...
