Eau Claire, WI (June 26, 2018) -- Dwarfcraft Devices just can’t seem to leave the fuzz alone. The Reese Lightning is a powerful fuzz pedal meant for getting heavy. This fuzz monster picks up where the Eau Claire Thunder left off. Brighter and dirtier than its Thunder brother, it boasts many of the same features. The Timewarp toggle omits the clipping diode to give you some octave up artifacts and the Toneblast bypasses the Tone control for added volume and even more tonal options. It couldn’t be related to the Thunder and not have the Feedback switch and tuning knob.
Reese Lightning features include:
- Volume, Tone, and Gain controls
- Tunable feedback with a momentary switch
- Full Wet/Dry blend
- Top-mounted jacks
- True bypass soft switching
- Standard 9v DC center negative power
Reese Lightning will retail for $209 and will start shipping in July 2018.

Dwarfcraft Devices has returned to the world of magic with the Witch Shifter. This one is the smoothest and cleanest pitch pedals they’ve released so far. Some of the features come straight from the Wizard of Pitch, like the doppler effect created by the Bend toggle and some chaotic pitch jumping. They have also integrated the “DinDin” stomp, freezing the Witch’s audio buffer for glitched out repeats. They offer up some new features too, like the Scatter toggle, which turns the pitch knob into a chaotic pitch modulator, often landing between pitches for unique tortured-tape-machine warbles.
Witch Shifter other features include:
- Full Wet/Dry blend
- Expression control over Speed and Pitch
- Fuzz control that goes from a subtle hiss to wide open distortion
- Secret Menu with Delay controls
- Top-mounted jacks
- Relay/true bypass soft switches
- Standard 9v DC center negative power
Witch Shifter will retail for $249 and will start shipping in August 2018.

Keith Urban has spent decades traveling the world and topping global country-music charts, and on this episode of Wong Notes, the country-guitar hero tells host Cory Wong how he conquered the world—and what keeps him chasing new sounds on his 6-string via a new record, High, which releases on September 20.
Urban came up as guitarist and singer at the same time, and he details how his playing and singing have always worked as a duet in service of the song: “When I stop singing, [my guitar] wants to say something, and he says it in a different way.” Those traits served him well when he made his move into the American music industry, a story that begins in part with a fateful meeting with a 6-string banjo in a Nashville music store in 1995.
It’s a different world for working musicians now, and Urban weighs in on the state of radio, social media, and podcasts for modern guitarists, but he still believes in word-of-mouth over the algorithm when it comes to discovering exciting new players.
And in case you didn’t know, Keith Urban is a total gearhead. He shares his essential budget stomps and admits he’s a pedal hound, chasing new sounds week in and week out, but what role does new gear play in his routine? Urban puts it simply: “I’m not chasing tone, I’m pursuing inspiration.”
