Can't sleep. Insomnia gives birth to DISTRIBUTOR
Many people lay awake at night unable to drift off due to so many thoughts nagging at them. I do suffer from this, and what do I think about? Tone. That's it. What can I do to improve your tone. Our latest offering to apease the insomnia deity is the Distributor. This is going to help alot of people, tidy up alot of congested boards, and hopefully I can now get a little bit of sleep.

Paul Stacey last at the 606 in London, OMG!
Once every couple of months Paul Stacey does a classic rock gig at the 606 club in Chelsea London which is where I caught up with Paul last night. What an incredible gig. Paul's tone was phenomenal. He's back from a long tour with The Black Crowes and is in truly fine form. Jeremy Stacey, Paul's brother was on drums and it must be said, is one of the best drummers on the planet. And how John Hogg on rhythm guitar and vocals is not world famous is simply an injustice to mankind. If your a fan of classic rock done the way it was meant to then keep an eye out for the next time they play at the 6.

Oh my...I think we've done it!
We've been working on the ultimate pedal board power solution for some time. Integrating our Generator and Virtual Batteries in a way that will power nearly every dc powered effect on the planet... and I think we've just done it! I'm a bit excited so watch this space for more news on this soon. All I'll say is that daisy chains are about to become obsolete!

Review for Deviever effects on the way!
Joe at Vintage and Rare guitars in London sent me a bunch of these Deviever effects to check out. I've ended up doing a full on review for Guitar Buyer Magazine for three of them. Really fantastic creative tools. These guys have arguably one of the most unique design takes on fuzz's in recent history. Stay tuned for the full review.

Big Day for TheGigRig
When I was ten years old My older brother showed me an amazing magazine that had nothing to do with scantily clad ladies. An American mag called 'Guitar Player'. I'd already been playing a couple of years and tho I wouldn't get my first electric guitar for another 2 years I was already well and truly hooked. The images of rock demi-gods toting Les Paul's and Lycra stayed with me for a long time to come and for me it's always been the benchmark mag, I mean, it's GUITAR PLAYER after all! Well yesterday TheGigRig got a mention in 'The Ultimate Guide To Pedalboards' article in GP. They called it one of a couple of 'ingenious products', so basically, I'm over the moon. I'm really proud of this pumping little company Dave and I have created out of nothing but an idea and bloody hard work. So thanks to everyone who has been involved, from our clients who inspire us to do what we do to our fantastic retailers and industry partners. You guys and gals ROCK!!!
