Earlier this month, U2's The Edge sent shockwaves through the gear world when he ditched his beloved tube amps for Universal Audio’s UAFX pedals for U2’s Sphere residency. Now, for Black Friday, the entire UAFX range – including the Edge-favored Ruby, Woodrow and Dream pedals – has seen its prices slashed by as much as 20% at Guitar Center.

For those uninitiated, the Ruby, Woodrow and Dream pedals are pedal amps that offer emulations of the Vox AC30, ‘55 Fender 5E3 Deluxe Tweed, and ‘65 Fender Deluxe Reverb, respectively.
