Highwind Amplification put their classic Direwolf pedal up for auction. Offering high end, handmade guitar pedals and amps, Jordan has had some stand out moments equipping Mastodon (Bill Kelliher), Billy Idol (Steve Stevens), and Black Dahlia Murder (Brandon Ellis).
We are running flash TODAY 12-8PM with our silent auction running throughout the day. Come bid on your favorite items, grab lunch from @pizzaconezone and stay for live music at 8PM with @marystongue and @warmveins.slc

Cleaned and restrung the RIP Star Destroyer for a quick demo of the new @cult.fx splatter finish SNK VHD.
It's such a great sounding preamp/distortion pedal and takes boost/OD pedals so well, so I ran the acid-etched Highwind Direwolf into it to make it a bit more tight and crisp.
You know where to find both pedals if you like what you're hearing...

Lauren Howard is a beloved friend, colleague, and asset to the tattoo community. During her eight years tattooing, she has traveled the country, sought out further knowledge of tattooing and its history, and makes consistent contributions to help other artists grow. “Little” Lauren is proud of her adult self and the life and friendships she has built for herself. She is very grateful for every opportunity and connection tattooing has brought her.
When Lauren is not tattooing, she enjoys time with her partner and cat, and appreciating what nature has to offer. You can catch her with a backpack on hiking our local mountains, riding her bike, paddle-boarding and so much more.
Since tearing her ACL (let’s be honest, she absolutely destroyed that thing), she’s been unable to dive back into the things she loves.
Let’s get Lauren back on her feet, happy and healthy again! The financial weight of surgery costs, specialist care, and downtime are overwhelming but we can help as a community.
Remedy Tattoo Parlor is hosting a flash tattoo fundraiser on Friday, May 1st from 12-8PM. We will also have a silent auction, merch, and food throughout the day, with Warm Veins playing live at 8PM.
Help us reach our goal of $10,000. All funds will go towards paying Lauren’s medical bills and cost of living post-op.

I am thrilled to announce the Holy Moonlight a collaboration with @highwindamplification and @theacaciastrain that has been in the works since last summer. An extremely versatile overdrive that can find a home in any rig. And for fun we included the KILL button so you can make your amp sound like it’s about to explode. Here are some features:
- 18V Charge Pump for added headroom using a standard 9VDC supply
- Internal Voltage Selector Switch to run at 9V if desired
- Top-mounted jacks for tight-fitting pedalboards
- Clean blend control for retention of dynamics (Especially for bass)
- Wide dynamic gain range
- 3 position Mode switch for clipping configurations: (LED, Lift, Asymmetrical)
- 3 position Boost Switch for different levels of distortion
- 3 position Growl Switch to control the thickness of the pedal
- 3 position Bite switch to control the top end brightness of the pedal
- Special ‘Kill Mode’ footswitch to instantly crank the knobs and bring the noise
The Holy Moonlight is available for preorder right now from @highwindamplification !

Possibly our last run ever of one of the most decked out OD/TS type pedals out there. You snooze, you lose...

We quietly put up some really cool stuff, all in very limited quantities.
We got together with @lichtlaermaudio and created a bunch of super cool shop exclusives of some of their most iconic pedals: Gehenna, Altar, The Key & The Gate... and, of course, we also brought back the TOTAL DISTORTION WORSHIP in the same color scheme.
While we're at it, the acid-etched @highwindamplification Direwolf has also made a return. This is the last time we will be doing this particular version (maybe ever), so if you want it, this is your last chance for the time being.

Took a little trip across the country, got in some legendary hangs with my buddy @brandonellisgtr at his home studio. It was awesome to talk music, share stories, and get schooled on good pizza.
Thanks for being such a good host dude!

This is definitely one of the best days of my career. Giving these little monsters one last playthrough before they head off to their new homes.
The dream of one day making my own tube amp was the entire reason I got into electronics in the first place. To think that I've not only reached that dream, but gone beyond it, is pretty wild. It is still mindblowing to me that there are players wanting to try them out... I am absolutely blown away, and deeply appreciative.
Thank you to everyone who has helped me get to this point; it genuinely means the world to me. Special shoutout to @solidamplification and @ks.rhodes for their direct involvement in helping to make the Torrent possible.
Just got headshells in for the Torrent 50! Aren't they sick?
Super excited to begin final assembly. Thanks to everybody who jumped in on the first run.
To those who have asked - Once these have made it to their new homes, I will begin taking deposits for the second run.
Also, I want to give a big thank you to Kyle and the team at @ksramps for helping to make this dream into a reality.
