Danelectro has unveiled a new series of pedals, the "Billionaire" line. The four pedals feature an overdrive, a rotary speaker simulator, a tremolo (possibly a rehoused Tuna Melt) and a boost pedal (probably a Boss FA-1 FET Amplifier clone.) Also among the new products is a power supply powered by a 9v battery, which may be of interest to those prefer using batteries for their dirt pedals. For more information, visit Danelectro's Billionaire Tone site.
Pride of Texas
Aces the bluesy tone of one of the greatest players ever to walk the earth. Fattens up signal without loss of clarity or voice. Adds push and fatness to single coil or humbuckers. Plenty of boost for crunch rhythm or solos. If you can take only one pedal into the studio to record your dream tune, make sure it is this one.
