The Guitar Knobs

The Knobs are joined again by Alex Guaraldi founder Coppersound Pedals for a very special 101 on pedal breadboarding featuring Coppersound's incredible line of DIY breadboarding gear. We cover the basics of getting started, what gear is necessary, and things to consider. We also discuss Alex's own approach to creating a circuit. Let's all get out there and build some pedals!

The Knobs welcome Barry Grzebik founder of Grez Guitars to the show. Barry has created unique offerings for the guitar world through is handcrafted models featuring reclaimed Redwood from the Pacific Northwest. His original designs have an incredible resonance and tone. Aside from being impeccably well crafted, the thing that grabbed our attention when we met him at NAMM 2023 was how impossibly light they were. Enjoy the show!
