little gear update: when @terrorizer.la played in little gear update: when @terrorizer.la played in LA a couple weeks ago, I had to borrow some amps. it turned out cool, but it made me too nervous relying on other people for gear, so I got these @uaudio Anti (5150) and Knuckles (Dual Rec) pedals, hooked them up to a @seymourduncanpickups stereo PowerStage with both “amps” boosted by an @empress_effects Heavy Menace, out to a @lehleswitcher ABY. just tested it out and it sounds pretty goddamn glorious.
what a week! flew into San Jose for family thanksg what a week! flew into San Jose for family thanksgiving and miscellaneous fun, “ran” a 5k race on t-day, saw my aunties and assorted family that night and then played a show with @terrorizer.la saturday night. ready for cats n’ couches.

My favorite pedal in front of any amp, now availab My favorite pedal in front of any amp, now available from @klein.michael.w. He says: Spire is an original design and my attempt at creating a pedal allowing the player to shape the voice and feel of their amplifier in a natural and intuitive way.

Most unique are the three Focus controls and the Harmonics control. Each of the Focus controls actively shifts the frequency response. For Low, counterclockwise is thicc while turning it up gradually shifts the active high-pass higher resulting in a tighter, more percussive feel. Mid Focus is a parametric mid boost somewhat similar to the old Pearl OD-05, Ibanez ST9, and Maxon ST9 Pro+, but revoiced as well as implemented differently. Lastly, High Focus too actively shifts the high frequency response without getting too dark or too stringy.

Harmonics helps reign in the aggressive (harsh?) overtones of hard clipping amps like 5150s, Rectifiers, SLOs, etc and generally makes them a more pleasant playing experience for plebes like me.

I sent a few out for input, and have been pleasantly surprised with the response. @sgtdeathmetal of @frozensoultx put his in his touring board. @taylorxyoung immediately used his for all guitars on the @krueltyjphc album. @delmuerte had this to say: “Magic bullet. Straight up cheat code. Better than any boost I’ve used and functionally more appropriate. I’ve got a lotta pedals and this is one of the few that is always on.” 

Spire is available to order ($225+shipping). If you’re interested holla atcha boi. 

Thanks to all for the continued support, positivity, and guidance.
