The Clifton Worley Show: Musical Journeys & Guitar Gear episodes

  • Brian Bicknell (Spruce Effects)

    In this episode, I talk with Brian Bicknell (Spruce Effects) about how he got into playing music, becoming a gearhead, learning to build pedals, and eventually the creation of his own pedal brand. We talk about his unique branding that pays homage to the natural surroundings of his West Coast locale, from the artwork to the unique control set nomenclature. We talk about the pedals he builds and the differences between each one. He also tells us about some of his favorite gear that he doesn't build along with what is his favorite pedal to build at the moment. Check out his store at www.spruceeffects.com
