one of the best historical Guitar's Effect - Boss GT-10

Meet the new BOSS effects flagship, the BOSS GT-100.

The GT-100’s unique dual-LCD and eight-knob user interface provides fast access and intuitive control. There are no menus to navigate. The tone-customizing functionality has been improved as well. All patches, amps, and overdrive/distortions can be created from scratch or customized with the graphical Tone Grid.

New A/B Channel Divide

Another new feature onboard the GT-100 Amp Effects Processor is the versatile A/B Channel Divide. Assign different amps and effects to each channel, divide the signal by dynamics and frequency, with each channel capable of driving its own effects and amps settings. Assign smooth, mild lead tones to the mid-to-high pitches, for example, and heavy, cutting tones to the lower notes.


New tonal possibilities with the Accel pedal
A new dimension of expression is available with the Accel pedal, which enables control of multiple parameters simultaneously, as well as time-variant effects such as Feedbacker, S-Bend and Twist. Experiment with creative combinations of parameters, interacting in real time with the pedal.

Protone Pedal "Hunted Delay" Review by Mark Holcombs

Pro Tone Pedals is extremely proud to present the Mark Holcomb Limited Edition Signature Delay Pedal. Mark’s signature pedal, The Haunted Delay, was designed to be an ambient style delay, like your favorite vintage tape echo… with gig-ready durability to last you decades without a $1000 price tag.

-The Delay control offers a sweep of delay times ranging from 25 milliseconds to 450 milliseconds.

-Repeat control runs from a single regeneration to infinite feedback-The longer settings introduces some slight note crunching similar to the vintage tape delay systems from decades long gone by.

-Mix sets the level of delayed signal mixed with straight guitar tone.

-The Volume knob adjusts the overall output from unity gain to a 20db boost- enough volume to drive your amp to the edge The Haunted delay was intentionally designed to work well with modern high gain amps as well as classics, offering the widest range of usability no matter what style you play.

I’m extremely happy with how unique and versatile this pedal turned out, and it’s been an
inspiration merely jamming on it as of late. The intention here was to create something truly trippy – a pedal versatile enough to handle the soundscape-y material I’m drawn to, while at the same time having a very streamlined interface, making it easy to use as a songwriting tool – which is it’s main use for me. -Mark Holcomb

Periphery Announce Dual Album Release Date and Tour

Periphery have announced the release date of their dual albums, ‘Juggernaut: Alpha’ and ‘Juggernaut: Omega,’ as January 27 via Sumerian Records.

One of the most awesome song from Periphery called "Make Total Destroy"

Drummer Matt Halpern said, “’Juggernaut’ is a story that is told through our music, and we want our audience to fully digest the whole experience. Because ‘Juggernaut’ is very detailed and dense in terms of character development, peaks and valleys, climaxes and resolutions we’ve divided the story and music in two, in the form of two separate albums. ‘Juggernaut: Alpha,’ the first part of the story, focuses on the back story and character development, while part two/album two, ‘Juggernaut: Omega,’ focuses on some pretty serious and gut-wrenching events, taking you for a thrill ride along the main character’s complex journey. Although the albums are split in two physically, the story is only complete when the albums are digested consecutively, allowing the listener to recognize and hear the lyrical and musical overlapping themes, foreshadowing, and connected ideas.”

The band will also hit the road early next year with Nothing More, Wovenwar and Thank You Scientist.

“We are ecstatic to be out of the studio and touring on ‘Juggernaut,’” said vocalist Spencer Sotelo. “The band is planning on performing a good amount of tracks from that record on this tour and we are beyond excited to share this experience with all of our fans. It’s going to be a killer tour and we feel very strongly about the diverse line-up of bands that we were able to bring together for this.”
