R.G. Keen and Bob Weil designed what might be the most under appreciated line of pedals ever: The GarageTone series. It's excellent, the sounds and quality are great, but almost as soon as it hit the market, this pedal line disappeared. In this week's episode, we find out why.

I recently learned about Affordable and not flashy. I'm not a pedal guy at all but figured after 20 years of playing I should figure out how to use a pedal board to take my sound farther and inspire me to try new things. I bought a JHS 3 series delay and it is amazing. I can get great sounds out of it with it being very easy to use (I don't know what I'm doing so less knobs and switches works for me), I feel like it's a gem that a lot of people will miss out on because it's cheap and plain. There was a lot in this video that made sense in that aspect. Think I may buy a few more 3 series pedals and just let my daughter go nuts on em with some sharpies so they look different and I can tell them apart on the board.
