Klon or Cloned? Analogue vs Digital Shootout
Nik Farhan (NEA | H.A.T.D.) shoots out his Rare Efek. 1:1 Klon reproduction overdrive pedal. Which one do you think is which? Does it matter?
Silence = Heaviness
Muting, automating, and letting the section breathe is key for maximum SLAM.
I like WIDE Solos And I Cannot Lie
More WIDTH is more BETTER. Make your guitar solos feel huge and expensive. Saves you from doing perfect double takes as well.
