Brian Soden – Mythos Pedals – Olympus OverdriveThis is a drive pedal that I feel some might be sleeping on. If you dig the classic sound of a pushed old Fender tweed amp, the Olymus is right up your alley. I’m using mine for low/med gain amp-like Americana / Roots Rock with an Xotic RC Booster after it. Think Isbell, Wilco, etc. There is a decent … Continue reading August 2023 – Mass Street Staff Picks

Kyle Ralston – Milkman Sound – 5W Half Pint – ChocolateI love little dogs and little amplifiers, especially when they are a little unruly, and think they are bigger than they are.

I also found that it stacks very well with … Continue reading February 2023 – Mass Street Staff Picks
