Coheed and Cambria's Claudio Sanchez Announces Signature Wren & Cuff Pedal

Coheed and Cambria's Claudio Sanchez Announces Signature Wren & Cuff Pedal

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Coheed and Cambria's debut album, Claudio Sanchez and camp launch Anna, a signature pedal to mark the occasion.


Coheed and Cambria vocalist / guitarist Claudio Sanchez has announced details of his brand new signature Anna guitar pedal from Wren & Cuff with pre-orders available today. To celebrate the 20th anniversary Coheed and Cambria’s beloved debut album, The Second Stage Turbine Blade, Claudio and camp had the idea to make a pedal to mark the occasion. They decided on a pedal dedicated to one of Sanchez’s favorite and most trusted combinations when in the studio and on the stage, his 80’s Boss SD-1 Super Overdrive feeding his ’78 “op-amp” Big Muff. A Swiss Army knife of fuzz and drive is the end result.

Earlier this summer Coheed and Cambria released their widely celebrated new album and the latest chapter of “The Amory Wars” saga with Vaxis II: A Window of the Waking Mind. The 13-song collection landed at #1 on Billboard’s “Top Hard Rock Albums” chart marking the band’s fourth #1 on the tally. Vaxis II: A Window of the Waking Mind is available on all streaming platforms with vinyl and cassette variants, along with a deeply immersive Deluxe Box Set available in the Coheed and Cambria’s official store.

Lloyd Baggs made his first acoustic guitar when he was a fine-art lithographer and soon found himself building instruments for Ry Cooder, Jackson Brown, Janis Ian, and other stars. Today he is an innovator in acoustic guitar pickup design.

The master guitar builder and pickup maker explains how our favorite unplugged 6-strings do their thing, for the strumming layperson and aspiring luthier alike.

It’s utterly amazing that a satisfying acoustic guitar can be assembled from a few pieces of wood. That’s magic. And the mystery, magic, and quest to create the perfect guitar tone is what I think drives most luthiers.
