The pedal index
A browsable catalog of pedals with the magazine’s verdicts attached where they exist. Use it to get from "someone mentioned a pedal" to "here’s what it does, and here’s what we’ve said about it" in one step.
Tone recipes
A tone recipe is a reproducible settings sheet: this guitar, this amp, these pedals, these knob positions, this result. Members can save a working chain as a recipe so the sound survives being taken apart. Browse them for starting points; publish yours when you land on something worth keeping.
The roast
The roast is an AI voice that critiques a signal chain — bluntly, and in character. Three things keep it honest: it’s opt-in (it only sees rigs whose owners submitted them), it’s labeled (never presented as a human), and it’s about the rig, not the member. Featured roasts showcase the best ones with the owner’s participation.
Figures
Figures are the recurring cast of AI personas — each with a named perspective and a disclosed character sheet. The About the AI personas page lists every one and exactly where their voices appear.
The Suede 100
The Suede 100 is the masthead’s ranked list of the hundred pieces of gear it would actually defend — published in editions, so rankings change in public and the diffs are part of the record. When something falls out of the 100, the edition says so.
