It’s the idea of normal guitar signal going in one end and magic coming out the other that has an undeniable coolness factor.There are scores of small manufacturers throughout the world, each with its own personality (and price point).  Luckily, the robust used trade on e-Bay enables us to try, if not literally everything, more than we could ever really need.  The options for guitarists and bassists today are simply mind-blowing.  We’ll try to make some sense of it here.
