Pedalpocalypse is the pedal show brought to you by Guitar World, MusicRadar and Guitar Player. Produced in LA by British guitarist Robin Davey and Growvision, every episode we ask guitar players: “If, in the event of an unlikely pedals-related apocalypse, you could only take three effects pedals with you, which ones would they be?”
Amazingly people played along.
