Sleater-Kinney’s Carrie Brownstein

Carrie cranks it up for “One More Hour” with her custom-made, one-off Tele clone that was built by Rueben Cox. Here’s what the builder had to say about it: “The guitar was completed on New Year's Eve 2014. The pickups are Lollar Wide Range humbuckers. The body is mahogany—completely hollow except a for a mahogany bridge block—with a book-matched mahogany top and back. I gave it a chopped tele bridge and the 3-way placement is similar to the SG.”

Featuring dual-engine processing, dynamic room modeling, and classic mic/speaker pairings, this pedal delivers complete album-ready tones for rock and metal players.
