January 10, 2011, 13 years ago
MISERY INDEX guitarist Mark Kloeppel has partnered with Amptweaker to unveil the Tight Metal pedal at the annual NAMM conference next weekend (January 13th - 16th) in Anaheim, CA.
Amptweaker owner James Brown, who is well known for his engineering of Eddie Van Halen and Peavey’s original 5150 guitar amplifier, teamed up with Kloeppel to create the Tight Metal high-gain guitar pedal.
The Tight Metal pedal tone circuit was devised over the past year through concepts provided by Kloeppel coupled with Brown’s unparalleled engineering expertise. The pedal also features consumer suggested innovations such as an onboard noise gate or “chomp”, a “tight” control, and more. Additional details on the new Tight Metal pedal can be found here.
Kloeppel will be appearing at Amptweaker’s booth at NAMM next weekend to demo the Tight Metal pedal to industry leaders and music fans. He has also recently posted an online video demonstration of the pedal. Check it out below:
