Visiting @cornerstonegear HQ in Italy to work on our epic reverb pedal. Starting to sound REALLY good ✨👀
Also, pizza, good food, vibes, gelato and swimming 🇮🇹🍕🍷🍨
A quick noodle to Pearl Jam -Alive today with the epic Nero Fuzz from @cornerstonegear
For this I was using the @a.lowe.guitars S-Type and a @thorpyfx ER-2 into the Nero Fuzz into the @marshallamps JCM 800 Studio series
The amp was running pretty clean

🇯🇵 Japan, you’ve been something else.
From the Osaka show to the days spent with @freethetone_official@kazuki_isogai and @toshikisoejima , to the late nights over beer and sake with Jannis (@jampedals ), @cioks_power_supplies_official , Charles (@silktoneamps ) and the whole crew brought together by our amazing Joshua at @quanta_official_ distribution.
And somewhere in the middle of all this, a small big moment: we previewed a brand-new pedal designed for the Japanese market at @musiclandkey_osaka 🤫
What we’re bringing home isn’t a trade show. It’s the people, the conversations that ran late into the night, the mutual respect between builders crafting pedals by hand in different corners of the world.
Thank you, Japan. We’ll be back soon. 🙏

What if your reverb pedal felt less like an effect - and more like a cinematic space built around your guitar? @cornerstonegear NUCLEO is in stock now.
Lately I’ve had a few pedals to try out (thanks to my buddy @aldolanz ), including the @nobelsofficial ODR-1 30th Anniversary… and this thing completely blew my mind! The tone is insane, so musical and inspiring.
I turned everything on just to shoot a quick one-minute clip… but I couldn’t stop playing.
Yeah… I definitely need to get one. 🎸🔥💸

Your tone is inconsistent. Here’s why.
Ever feel like your sound is all over the place — too loud, too quiet, never quite there? That’s not your guitar. That’s not your amp. That’s uncontrolled compression.
Here’s the thing most players miss: compression is always happening. Your tube amp does it naturally — it’s called SAG, a gentle squeeze from the power supply, the transformer, the tubes. It’s part of what makes a great amp feel great.
But sometimes you need to take control of it yourself.
Toggle up → higher compression, more sustain, smoother dynamics. Raise the volume to compensate — and let your notes breathe longer.
Toggle down → lower compression, every nuance of your right hand comes through. Peak attack, raw response, total dynamic freedom.
Compression doesn’t kill your tone.
Set it right, and it becomes one of your most powerful tools. 🎸

Every detail matters. Always has.
When we started, we had one obsession: building pedals that felt as good as they sounded — inside and out.
Sound and tone? That’s a given. But for us, quality lives in every single detail. The way it looks. The way it feels in your hands. The way it inspires you before you even plug in.
This is our story. And we’re just getting started.
Crafted in Italy. Built to inspire.
