Silversun Pickups' Nikki Monninger

Nikki Monninger prefers a meat-and-potatoes board for her go-to Gibson Thunderbird basses. The signal first hits a Boss TU-3 tuner, then proceeds to an Aguilar TLC Compressor, a Boss ODB-3 Bass Overdrive, a ZVEX Woolly Mammoth, and a pair of Radial Engineering ProDI passive direct boxes that feed the front-of-house mix with dirty and clean signals. The pedalboard runs off a Voodoo Lab Pedal Power 2 Plus.

Get ready to dive into the gear-head dream: we teamed up with our friends at eastside music supply and pedal-wizard Blair White to build a pedalboard inspired by Queens of the Stone Age. From fuzz to filter sweeps, octaves to tape echo, we traced the band’s signature sound and then assembled a stacked board you could win. Whether you’re chasing heavy riffs or sculpting atmosphere, this one’s for pedal lovers and riff monsters alike.

OC Pedal Co. LA HABRA Hard Clipper Review

Fortin Kali Review

Fortin Kali Review

The aptly named Kali distills elements of the Fortin Cali—a Plexi-inspired amp—into a 2-channel pre-amp and distortion pedal. Each channel has three gain modes—vintage, raw, and saturation—which are selectable via a mini toggle. And each mode has a very distinct vibe, which could be loosely categorized as low-end-heavy, midrangey, and high-gain-centric, respectively.
