Rig Rundown: Little Barrie

Rig Rundown: Little Barrie

For more than 20 years, English guitarist Barrie Cadogan (aka Little Barrie) has been one of the go-to 6-string collaborators for England’s biggest rockers, from Morrissey and Liam Gallagher to Primal Scream, Paul Weller, and more. The Better Call Saul theme song composer has also made a name for himself in the U.S., notably as a trusted creative collaborator for Dan Auerbach and his Easy Eye Sound studio. That’s where PG’s Chris Kies linked up with Cadogan for this Rig Rundown. Tune in for the full interview for all the fascinating details, and peek at a quick preview roundup below.

Warm Audio Reamper | PG Plays

The Warm Audio Reamper does what the name says, but that's the least interesting thing about it. Tom Butwin runs through three use cases of the latest studio stalwart from @WarmAudioOfficial: pulling old direct recordings back through a real amp and pedalboard, splitting your signal to capture a dry safety track alongside your live rig tone, and even routing a vocal through a guitar overdrive pedal. For something this compact, the feature list runs long: JFET and op-amp switching for analog color or transparency, plus a built-in 50-watt power soak for silent amp recording with IRs or cab sims added after the fact.

The Grunge Wah Returns!

The Grunge Wah Returns!

The Cry Baby BB535 Wah Reissue is an authentic restoration of the expressive, throaty growl that became the collective voice of a new generation of wah. Designed with extensive input from the top early ’90s rock acts, it gave players the power to shape their own sound with a frequency selector, built-in boost, and custom inductor tuned for a uniquely warm, vocal tone. We dusted off the best-sounding model in our collection and recreated it part by part, original inductor included. For modern convenience, we added on/off LEDs for both the wah effect and boost circuit. Find your voice, and put some attitude into it, with the Cry Baby BB535 Wah Reissue.

Rig Rundown: Crowbar

Rig Rundown: Crowbar

New Orleans heavyweights Crowbar have been on a relentless tour of sellout shows this spring, with a schedule of dates that would have bands half their age fainting. Ahead of their gig at Eastside Bowl in Madison, Tennessee, PG’s Chris Kies talked with guitarist/vocalist Kirk Windstein, guitarist Matt Brunson, and bassist Pat Bruders to see what gear they’re using to conjure their crushing wall of sludgy hardcore.
