Museum of Lost Effects

The Museum of Lost Effects is a repository of articles and videos covering rare and odd guitar processors.

This initially modest collection is a work in progress that will grow over time, much like the ever-more-absurd prices these gizmos fetch on EBay.

Current exhibits:

Klon Centaur

Maestro Rhythm N’ Sound for Guitar

Morley Rotating Sound Wah (AKA “Oil Can Vibrato”)

Systech Harmonic Energizer

Lovetone Doppelganger

Interfax Harmonic Percolator

    Joe This series are Great! I really liked all those pedals, specially the maestro rhythm and sound. It seems to be a really useful tool lets say for playing solo!! Do you know if theres any modern cheaper alternative to that??

    Can ANYONE answer this……………

    Been trying for years to replicate this tone

    “I Love You More Than You’ll Ever Know” Blood, Sweat & Tears RAW without processing through soundboard.

    Anyone have an idea? Baldwin Buzzaround?

      Wow, thanks for that. I haven’t head that record since I was a little kid. A Buzzaround could sound like that, but it might also be a Mk. II Tone Bender. It sure doesn’t sound like a Fuzz Face!

    Hi Joe,

    Could you please consider doing some more pedal demos in this series – like your remaining Lovetone pedals? Also it would be great if you could add RSS to your blog – will make it much easier to keep following your videos. Thank you!

    That’s the sound of a 335 thru a cranked small amp.
    No pedals required.
