What are your four ‘must-have’ pedals? That is what we ask our guests to share with you in our Four On the Floor podcast segment.
Kevin is a super talented guy who has his creative hands in many pots, one of which is making awesome pedal enclosures and pedalboards out of old skateboards. He also happens to make some dang good music. If you are not familiar with Shoneswood do yourself a favor and check him out. He gave us a fantastic interview too! You can hear the episode for yourself right here. Check out Kevin’s choices for his Four On The Floor.
1. Jackson Audio – Prism Preamp/EQ/Boost
“It’s pretty new to me but I love the way it cleans up my amp, and it boosts so nicely. It plays really well with my other pedals as well. It has a lot of options to play with to dial in the tone you want. I turn it on and keep it on. It’s a keeper or me.”

2. Spoon sound FX – Overdrive (Shoneswood enclosure)
“It is just a super simple one knob overdrive, but it sounds so sweet. I just love it. It is perfect for my style of playing. It is just enough dirt. It does not get crunchy or anything. I have used natural amp overdrive all my life but I could not do without this one at this point.”

3. Ibanez – Analog Mini Delay
“It is a super simple with a small footprint, great for my board. I use it for always-on ambiance; it is a sound that I just got used from music I grew up listening too. Also if you are not the greatest guitar player (like myself) it is great to hide mess-ups!”

4. AC Noises – AMA Reverb / Oscillator
“I just got this pedal. It turns on and stays on for me from now on. It is an awesome pedal. AC Noises is a husband and wife team out of Italy which is cool. She does the art, and he does the electronics. It has a bit crusher setting which is really cool, but I don’t use it for my playing. I love the shimmer this pedal produces.”
