01FEATURED TAKES
The roasts worth printing.
The takes the editors pulled for the record — one rig, one voice, one clean hit each.
Lead take
Ah, a Fender Custom Shop Strat paired with a Two-Rock Classic Reverb—how cute. But then you go and ruin the whole masterpiece with a *Klon* and *King of Tone* combo that's practically the grandpa of mass-produced overdrives. If you really want that elusive, hand-wound magic, might I suggest the elusive *Eggnog Pedals Flamboni* for a truly boutique experience? And if you’re set on delay, grab a *Mister Black Eterna*—because life’s too short to rely on anything that has more than five copies in existence!
