It’s been a little while since we’ve heard anything from the folks over at Danelectro, but today’s pedal suddenly appeared in the mail a couple weeks ago, and what a wonderful surprise it was. The Nichols 1966 Distortion Fuzz brings back the very first circuit created by fOXX pedals founder and current Danelectro owner Steve Ridinger, which has been elusive since the 1960s. This unique sound is gonna be loved by...

If you’ve never seen the big, oddly-shaped Danelectro effects that were born decades ago, today’s pedal is an excellent place to start (check out our review for the DC-1 Cool Cat Stereo Chorus HERE, too). The DE-1 Dan-Echo is a remarkably impressive sounding digital delay pedal based around the PT2395 digital delay chip, bringing warmth and vintage tone to any pedalboard. With basic controls and bold sounds, this purple...

Danelectro 3699 fUZZ Octaver

We have been loving the Vintage Pedals from Danelectro, and have the final effect of their current lineup for you today. Following in the footsteps of The Breakdown, Eisenhower Fuzz, Back Talk Reverse Delay and Roebuck Overdrive Distortion pedals, the Danelectro 3699 fUZZ Octaver brings a vintage and classic effect back into the fold. Improving on the classic FOXX Tone Machine, this vintage looking-and-sounding beast brings classic...

The Ibanez 10 Series is a classic collection, featuring some of the most celebrated (and perhaps underrated) pedals in history. Today’s featured effect recreates on of these vintage beauties, adding in a couple extras while retaining some ket sonic elements. The Danelectro Roebuck Overdrive Distortion is a take on the MT10 Mostortion, a Japanese-made MOSFET distortion pedal originating in the 1990’s. Found, perhaps...

There are some pedals that you always want to test out and see if the hype surrounding them is real, but for one reason or another, it just doesn’t happen. In the case of the Danelectro Back Talk™ Reverse Delay, the reason is MONEY, as the original pedals released in 1999 fetch upwards of $500. Thankfully, Danelectro has put this gem of an effect into its Vintage Pedals lineup, releasing a modern version for everyone who...

You’ve heard of Jimmy Page, right? Be you a fan of Led Zeppelin or not, it’s hard to ignore the culture impact he’s had on music, and rock n’ roll especially. That first Zepp album opened the floodgates for a new generation of guitar players who wanted to emulate Mr. Page, and basically altered music forever. The Danelectro The Breakdown™ Boost Overdrive seeks to emulate those classic, unforgettable tones from...

FFFUUUZZZZZZ….we love it, you love, what’s not to love about it? Today’s pedal, the Danelectro Eisenhower Fuzz, re-invigorates the sounds of a vintage, early-70’s blue label fuzz box (guess which one – we have an idea, but still aren’t 100%), with modern updates and options. Also, it’s not JUST a basic fuzz: it also harnesses the power of the Octave, adding to its intrigue, usefulness and...

In today’s world that has become just fantastically filled with the most options-laden, powerful, hip, trendy and mind-blowing effects pedals on the planet, sometimes it’s hard to remember a day when everything moved a little slower, things were a bit easier and every pedal didn’t cost a ton of money or have a manual the size of a phone book…..for those of us who remember phone books. A prime example of these...

The Tremolo Effect. It’s been heard, loved and loathed by many on countless records throughout the decades, and, regardless of if you’re a fan of it or not, you can’t deny it’s place in musical history. Starting with circuits in amplifiers and moving gradually to our beloved effects pedalboards, it comes in many shapes, iterations and styles. Sometimes, though, simple is the best solution, and we’re going...

Have you ever been truly, genuinely and pleasantly surprised by an effects pedal? Recently, we had the chance to check out a pedal from Danelectro’s Billionaire lineup, the Big Spender Spinning Speaker, and it really threw us for a loop (in a good way), so we were super-excited to test out another in this series of effects. The Cash Cow is a simple overdrive pedal (or so it seems) with an easy to use control section and small,...

We dig a good Leslie cabinet emulating effects pedal around here, and one that is low-budget-friendly is always a welcome perk. The Big Spender Spinning Speaker, designed and distributed as Billionaire by Danelectro, covers both areas, while managing to create some incredibly useful and tone-enhancing sounds. Self-described as the “best ever spinning speaker tones,” the Big Spender does in fact utilize just a couple of...

Tape delay/echo units have produced some of the most unique and recognizable tones in music history, used by countless artists and studio producers for decades. However, the older, “classic” units are big and bulky, and are extremely prone to damage, lack of replacement parts and near impossible upkeep. Fortunately, we live in a golden age of effects pedals, and companies like Danelectro re-create these machines with...

Danelectro PB&J Delay

Danelectro PB&J Delay


Posted By on Tuesday, January 20, 2015 in Danelectro, Delay / Reverb | 0 comments

The PB&J Delay from Danelectro packs quite the punch and capability. A lot of delays, I feel, lack the ability to switch patterns with out either kneeling down or having to invest some extra dough to get a multi-channel delay (Flashback, Etc.) But what I love about this Dan Electro is it is the exact opposite. It was what I needed in the sense of two delay options (Long and Short) which is what the button to the left is...

We’ve had an influx of pedals sporting the classic Octave/Fuzz combination recently, such as the Red Witch Seraphina, Danelectro 3699, Sitek Electronics Pandora, Warm Audio Foxy Tone Box and Hochstrasser Hairy Eggplant. While this combination might seem fairly regular and obvious, today we’re going to look at a slight variation that doesn’t appear all that often. The Way Huge Purple Platypus Octidrive MkII combines...

Rob Compa Guitarist for Dopapod Wayne, NJ www.dopapod.com www.facebook.com/dopapod How long have you been a musician? How did you get into it in the first place? I’ve been playing guitar since I was 12, so if my math is correct that’s about 17 years, I think. My Dad always played guitar around the house, so that got me into it initially. Eventually, we played a little guitar in our music class in middle school, playing little riffs...
