We are Dan & Mick from That Pedal Show. We want you to sound better, play more and be inspired! We believe that when it comes to guitar tones there are no answers, only better questions. Our job is to help you find those questions and explore them. We like traditional guitars, real amps and high quality stompboxes with as much analogue signal as humanly possible. Please join us in our quest for ever-improving tone!
