Jim Dunlop

The Bass Overdrive & Fuzz now comes in a smaller package.

Highlights include Source Audio’s True Spring Reverb and a Strymon Volante.

He’s worked with Joe Bonamassa, Eric Johnson, Eddie Van Halen and the Jimi Hendrix Estate and designed an effects pedal that spawned whole new genres of music. Not bad for an engineer who began his career as a self-confessed “pain in the ass” to the big boys. We meet Way Huge main man Jeorge Tripps…

New MXR and Way Huge pedals, a Billy Gibbons-inspired fuzz box, and more.

Namely, a compact power supply, a mini bass octave pedal, and a Way Huge drive/octave stompbox.
