I had a very negative gut reaction to Josh when I first saw him. That smug grin nearly made me punch a hole through my TV. But he's really grown on me. He's a genuine pedal nerd who wants to share his knowledge more than making a buck. Doesn't stop him making a few dollars on the side, I'm sure.

He's in the lucky position to be collecting ALL of the pedals and instead of being selfish about it he's sharing them with us and promoting other makers along the way, top Gary.

There was a pedal the bass player from Muse used which ended up going for ludicrous coin....I think it was Akai Deep Impact

He's got one of those faces... I'm going to try again later. I didn't like Justin Hawkins Rides Again at first, but at least he was in a band I like.
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

I found I had to get past how Justin delivers things to determine that I like the content of what he's delivering, but it wasn't easy to start with.

I've had one of these for about 4 years now, really need to start using it again, its not as good as my old ebow plus was, but with that whenever I played live with that I'd get terrible feedback, unpleasant...

Yarr they're great, not quite as pronounced as the ebow + was, you can get different effects with it by moving it back and forth between the bridge and base of the neck, its obviously strongest when its over the pickups but other cool tones can be had too :-)
