It’s not often a boutique pedal manufacturer gives you the chance to win any of their pedals. The good people at Cannoy Guitars are doing just that with their latest pedal giveaway!
This giveaway requires a video, but the guidelines are loose. You don’t have to be the fastest shredder, just tell Cannoy why you deserve to win. And it’s not a voting contest, which is nice. The Cannoy staff will pick the winner. And said winner will have his or her choice of one of the following prizes: a “45ACP” overdrive pedal, a “Clockwork Compressor” pedal, a “Shaky Old Dog” tremolo pedal, a “Signal Pirate” delay pedal, or a “Pimp Slap” envelope filter pedal.
Japanese electronics maker One Control is currently hosting two giveaways on their Facebook page. First, everyone who likes their page is entered to win a Micro-Distro pedal power distributor. They will announce a winner once the page hits 1,000 likes.
The other giveaway requires a bit more work. Explain how you would use any One Control switcher in a YouTube video and the owner of the best video gets to chose any current One Control product as a prize.
I’ve heard a lot of Soundgarden talk lately, and the band has a new song on The Avengers soundtrack. Chris Cornell is a helluva solo artist, too. His new solo album, Songbook, has gotten rave reviews.

I know there’s been a lot of talk lately about Eddie Van Halen being a big fat lair, but it’s tough to argue with his tone!

It’s guitarists vs. drummers over at DPS Music. Actually, there seems to be more than enough gear to go around, so the fighting can probably stop.
