Godlyke Announces the TWA Triskelion Mk III Harmonic Energizer

Godlyke Announces the TWA Triskelion Mk III Harmonic Energizer
Godlyke, Inc. is excited to announce the release of the TWA Triskelion Mk III. The Mk. III combines features of all previous versions of the Triskelion in a smaller, pedalboard-friendly chassis.

The Triskelion is a variable-state bandpass filter with adjustable gain. The filter's "Q" can also be adjusted from very wide to extremely steep to create harmonic focus in a narrow frequency band.

The Triskelion's specially designed filter can create glassy clean tones, boost mids for throaty solos, or tune your rig to any room for walls of singing, resonant feedback. Massive amp sounds, explosive lead-breaks, infinite sustain, and downright nasty, energy-intense tones are just a few of the uses for the Triskelion – the possibilities are limitless.

The Triskelion circuit is based on the uber-rare Systech Harmonic Energizer and has been used by many well-known artists including Dweezil Zappa, Lyle Workman, and Megadeth's Dave Mustaine.

This Japan-made Guyatone brings back memories of hitchin’ rides around the U.S.

This oddball vintage Guyatone has a streak of Jack Kerouac’s adventurous, thumbing spirit.

The other day, I saw something I hadn’t noticed in quite some time. Driving home from work, I saw an interesting-looking fellow hitchhiking. When I was a kid, “hitchers” seemed much more common, but, then again, the world didn’t seem as dangerous as today. Heck, I can remember hitching to my uncle’s cabin in Bradford, Pennsylvania—home of Zippo lighters—and riding almost 200 miles while I sat in a spare tire in the open bed of a pickup truck! Yes, safety wasn’t a big concern for kids back in the day.

Improvising over one chord for long stretches of time can be a musician's best friend or worst nightmare. With no harmonic variation, we are left to generate interest through our lines, phrasing, and creativity. When I started learning to improvise, a minor 7 chord and a Dorian mode were the only sounds that I wanted to hear at the time. I found it tremendously helpful to have the harmony stay in one spot while I mined for new ideas to play. Playing over a static chord was crucial in developing my sense of time and phrasing.
