Pedalmania 2024 Week #3Eventide Ultratap Delay/Reverb Multi-Tap Effects Pedal Silver
UltraTap is a unique multi-tap delay effects pedal offering rhythmic delays, reverb and modulation. It's perfect for staccato leads, swelling chords, and other evolving effects — everything from reversed reverbs to the sound of ripping it up in the Grand Canyon! UltraTap features the ability to add as many virtual tape heads as desired along with the ability to expressively control head position and output level enabling new and unprecedented effects.
Xotic XW-2 Wah Pedal - Limited-edition Blue
The wah tone and EQ are dialed in to perfection making accessing the perfect wah sound easier than ever. With plug-and-play simplicity, you can achieve the finest wah sound that will truly elevate your creative ingenuity. The pedal features custom wound inductor, pot and circuit which not only captures the pure essence of vintage Clyde McCoy (as XW1 did), but also breathes an evolved essence (of wah) that goes beyond vintage. As with the XW-1, the pedal has a relay-based true bypass switch and adjustable rocker tension to optimize your rocker pedal to your liking.
Walrus Audio Sloer Stereo Ambient Reverb Effects Pedal Blue
The Slöer Stereo Ambient Reverb builds on our popular Slö lineup but adds two additional reverb algorithms, stereo width control, two additional modulation wave shapes, and the ability to control the sample rate. Now you can create immersive, lush, modulated, sleepy, and ambient soundscapes with more width and depth than ever before.
J. Rockett Audio Designs Blue Note Select Boost/Overdrive Pedal
Transparent, organic, dynamic — J. Rockett’s Blue Note Select all but embodies these sought-after overdrive qualities, improving upon J. Rockett’s self-admitted “favorite circuit” with a fresh look and tone. Like previous Blue Note series pedals, it skillfully skirts the lines between dirty boost and overdrive to deliver the same lively feel of a hot tube amp. And just like a traditional amplifier, this pedal’s 4-knob setup — consisting of Volume, Gain, Tone, and Fat controls — provides a straightforward and intuitive tone-shaping experience. However, Sweetwater’s Blue Note aficionados find that this V2 variation’s most significant change is found in its harder-hitting low-end response, which impacts both standard mode and the screaming sound of Hot mode when you engage the middle switch. The Blue Note Select fits the bill for the guitarist who requires an uncompromisingly amp-like response from their gain pedal.
Neon Egg Planetarium 3
The Planetarium 3 is a stereo reverb and/or chorus, running into a delay with stereo modulation, running into a compressor with an external sidechain input. It lets you turn any sound into a sea of modulated ambience, then make it pump in time with the music (without the need for a computer or click track).
Maxon Od-9 Overdrive Effects Pedal
The Maxon OD-9 Overdrive Effects Pedal may look like your old favorite but that's where the similarity ends. Improved circuitry with a new chip yields the ultra-smooth dynamic overdrive guitarists crave. Drive and Level controls tweak the intensity and volume while the Hi-Boost/Hi-Cut tone controls adjust brightness. Features true bypass switching, a die-cast zinc case, and 3-year warranty. From subtle cries to shattering screams, the Maxon OD-9 delivers a huge range of tones.

You've got another SIX chances to win in this week's giveaway. Enter below for your shot at pedals(or gear) from Aguilar, AmpMojo, Electro-Harmonix, Gator Cases, Truetone, or Zashabuti!
Aguilar AG Preamp/Direct Box
Aguilar’s AG Preamp Pedal is a must-have for any bassist looking for a clean and transparent preamp to sculpt their sound.

AmpMojo Sol Drive Responsive Tube Overdrive
The Sol Drive is a low-to-medium gain, responsive tube overdrive pedal. It uses a Tung-Sol 12AX7 pre-amp tube to bring a rich harmonic texture to your tone that only a real tube can. Real tube tone. Real tube feel.
Features:
• Genuine Tung-Sol 12ax7 vacuum tube
• Premium no-click foot switch
• True bypass relay circuit
• Top mounted input, output, dc jacks
• Tour-grade durability
• Built in U.S.A.
Electro-Harmonix Lizard King Octave Fuzz Effects Pedal Green
Make way for the new heir to the octave fuzz throne, the Lizard King from Electro-Harmonix. Directly inspired by the EHX x JHS collaboration released in 2023, the Lizard King takes the gnarly and responsive octave fuzz circuit from the Lizard Queen and optimizes it for bass and beyond. With updated tone controls and a new Blend knob, the bass’s fundamental tone and low-end is preserved while the top-end of the fuzz tone is shaped to fit or dominate any mix!
The EHX Lizard King is a fixed-gain fuzz that is dynamically responsive. Adjustments to your instruments volume affects the amount of fuzz. Lower instrument volumes create a clear, fuzzy overdrive, while full instrument volume sends the gain over the top for ripping riff and searing solo tones. The familiar VOLUME and OCTAVE knobs control overall output and octave blend volume respectively. New to the Lizard King, the BLEND knob sets the mix between your clean and fuzz tones to create the perfect balance of fuzz while retaining your bass’s attack and low-end. The TONE knob is a low pass filter that rolls off the highs, while the SUN/SHADOW switch further enhances the tone of the octave fuzz and clean tones. SUN boosts the octave fuzz with a more driving midrange, and the clean tone accessed by the BLEND knob has more treble and bass frequencies. When the switch is set to SHADOW, the clean tone is unchanged, and fuzz tone is tighter.

TrueTone 1 SPOT Pro CS11
Our most powerful 1 SPOT Pro yet! The 1 Spot Pro CS11 is the same size as the CS12, but with all new outputs and options.

• Simple gain and output controls make it easy to dial in the perfect tone.
• At home, on stage, or in the studio, the ZAMP delivers cranked tube amp tones at any volume.

Giveaway season is ramping up with our first Pedalmania giveaway of 2024! Enter below for your chance to WIN pedals from Chase Bliss, LR Baggs, Keeley Electronics, Karma Guitar Amplifiers, Wampler, or Solo Dallas! Ends September 16, 2024.
Chase Bliss Onward
Onward is a sampler controlled by your playing. It moves when you do, capturing the sounds you make to create rich musical landscapes.
You will find responsive accompaniment, synthetic reimaginings, and a whole heap of glitching dreamscapes.
It has two sides – one freeze for soft, smooth sounds, and one glitch for angular, repeating sounds. Combine them into one moving mega-effect, or split them apart for waves of depth and dimension.
LR Baggs Venue DI Acoustic Guitar Preamp / DI / EQ / Tuner Pedal
We created the Venue DI so you can travel light, set up fast, and sound incredible anywhere you plug in. The Venue DI gives you complete control by combining a full-isolation DI output, 5-band EQ with adjustable low & hi-mid bands, variable clean boost, and chromatic tuner all in one acoustic pedal. With its all-discrete signal path, hi-graded semiconductors, and exclusive use of audiophile grade film capacitors, the Venue DI is on par with the world’s elite preamps and provides a studio quality sound for the stage.
Keeley Mk3 Driver Andy Timmons Full Range Overdrive Pedal - Black
The Mk3 Driver – Andy Timmons Full Range Overdrive is an overdrive workstation that allows you to orchestrate everything from a clean boost to a treble supercharger, a chimey tube-amp overdrive to a square-wave, germanium fuzz generator and more. This pedal combines a three-control blues driver circuit with two switches for the voicing Drive and Tone characteristics. Robert and Andy developed these switches to give players a broad range of drive tones. The Drive toggle engages two germanium diodes for a smoother, slightly compressed drive. Switch to Andy’s clipping style for a brighter and more articulate attack. Every part of the circuit has been optimized for tone and the demanding needs of a recording and touring artist such as Andy Timmons. Simply adding the Mk3 Driver to your pedalboard will likely make your rig sound better. This pro sounding overdrive can be switched between true-bypass and buffered bypass at any time.

that has shaped the fabric of music for decades – the legendary 1176
Peak Limiter. This compressor pedal takes you on a journey into the soul
of timeless studio sounds. The EGO 76 transcends the conventional role
of a pedal compressor, moving beyond merely squishing your signal to
significantly enriching your tone.
Fueled by FET-based (field-effect transistor) technology, Wampler gave the
EGO 76 studio-like Attack and Release controls, a Parallel Clean Blend knob,
and a meticulously tuned Tone knob. Each carefully designed element
encapsulates the spirit of the iconic 1176 and brings a touch of that magic
