http://www.wmdevices.com The Arcane Pre Amp from William Mathewson Devices is one of my new favorite pedals. I love the presence of the preamp side, and the fuzz/overdrive channel is KILLER!!! LOVE IT!

  • i love how you say something as if its objective while stating that its subjective.

    if you dont like all these complicated pedals, why watch them on youtube? just take your fuzz face, strat, cry baby and play really bad stevie ray licks all day.

    GMD deserves a better audience.

  • @seasonedtoker I have to agree with you on the issue of orientation, but I thought it sounded pretty dern good. I guess that's why there are so many options out there. Some of us are just geeks, heh.

    Cheers.

see all

    Whats wrong with Fuzz Face's, Cry Baby's, and Strats??

    lol I Kidd I kidd!

  • not sure if you do requests, but there isnt much on the acoustic trauma... care to cater?

  • Actually, after some experimentation, my ZVex Super Duper can also get a little ratty at high settings. In fact, I was able to cop some similar sounds in this vid with the Super Duper. Makes me wonder if we should think of the Arcane as a kind of boost as well as "fuzz," but a booster with an EQ, which is an excellent idea.

  • @PlayaDontHate24

    Tell me what's a good pedal then. Have you owned or tried one of these?

    I'm thinking of getting one but if it's "shitty" then I want to know how.

  • Wow, I like the horizontal orientation, FWIW. Vertical would be fine too, but the switches would be pretty close together, though that's okay too Mainly I like how small the Arcane Preamp is, whatever its orientation. As to the sound, it's too hard to make a final judgement on YouTube. Seems pretty cool to me. The fuzz side might be a bit too compressed and ratty at high settings, but this thing might be awesome for whacking the front end of an overdriving amp.

  • @seasonedtoker Well put up or shut up. I wanna see some reasonably mindblowing stuff from seasoned toker electronics soon!

  • you sound like Jack Black

  • Yes I want some demo's of pedals you designed the past decade:)

  • sounds good , I guess wmd does make some decent stuff, I thought they sucked after that demo of that yellow thing that sounded like dial up internet starting, I stand corrected nice sound

  • ...and what is it that you design friend?
