Gamechanger Audio got quite the hometown-hero boost at Nashville NAMM this year: Third Man Records and JackWhite teamed with the Latvian innovators for a new version of their existing bug-zapper-inspired fuzz pedal. The Plasma Coil features the same electrified xenon-gas-filled tube as the original Plasma Pedal but swaps the blend knob out for a 6-position octave control. Octave modes can be activated on the fly with the new momentary footswitch, or engaged in tandem with the normal fuzz effect via a back-panel switch (not shown).
