“Made from the cheapest finest platinum looking substance on the black market. It may or may not actually be a Chinese knockoff. Who cares. What I would or wouldn’t do is, stack this particular pedal with a Russian Muff. This pedal is excellent, you see this is made in the United States of America. Crafted with the best hand selected USA components outsourced from China. A lot of people-I don’t want to sound trivial- but a lot of people are using these digital amp modelers, very unattractive it’s weird.. You see these players with their Ax FX because they can’t wire a pedalboard properly. And I hate it. I’m a traditionalist. I have so many fabulous friends that happen to use amp modelers, but I’m a traditionalist. They’re good friends of mine. No matter what you do - pedals, no pedals - it doesn't matter. You have people that are mentally ill. And they're gonna come through the cracks. And they're going to do things that people will not even believe are possible.”
