Chevelle’s Pete Loeffler
Relying primarily on his guitar, amp, and hands to deliver a tight-but-chunky sound, Loeffler has a modest pedalboard. His signal path starts with a Shure UR4S wireless that feeds a Peterson StroboStomp 2 tuner and then runs into an Electro-Harmonix Holy Grail Nano Reverb. For extra spice, he switches on a Boss TR-2 Tremolo or MRX Phase 90. For more gain and grit, he adds a Tech 21 SansAmp GT2, with a Boss GE-7 Equalizer adding a nice midrange boost. The last link in the chain is a Dunlop GCB95 Cry Baby wah with a G Lab True Bypass Wah-Pad. A Voodoo Lab Pedal Power 2 Plus provides the juice.
We rummaged through our entire backlog of Rig Rundown footage and photos to compile a guide to some of 2014’s tastiest, most elaborate stomp stations, including boards from the Cult’s Billy Duffy, Keith Urban, the Pixies, the Sword, Carlos Santana, Brent Mason, and more.
