Burning Pedal Questions feat. Mikey Demus from Skindred (Ep. 42)

This week’s episode 42 marks the premiere of our new format “In the Loop” in which pedal builders get to share their wisdom live on the show. We welcome Mikey Demus from the British metal band Skindred as he is also one of the two minds behind Redbeard Effects. We get to the bottom of pedal making with Mikey by answering what sparks the development of a new pedal, how to decide on functions and looks (rhubarb pink!), and how even a small pedal company can establish a massive dealer network for their distribution. Of course we do also chat about the latest gear news such as the TC Electronics Mojo Mojo, the Redbeard Effects Angry Rhubarb, and Orange’s new OE-1 custom shop guitar. Enjoy this episode and do the thing!
