Pedalflex Effects Pedal Remote
(starting at $69)
Sure, you may not think you need this, but consider how many
times you’ve tried dialing in a knob on your pedal with the tip of
your shoe, only to discover that your shoe was not made for precision adjustments. If you’re tired of groping around dark stages for
the Drive control, Pedalflex’s new Effects Pedal Remote will allow
you to adjust up to two knobs from the comfort of your mic stand.
While it’s still a mechanical system and a little limited in scope, it’s
better than nothing. We were also informed that a wireless system is
in the works, which will open up the possibilities greatly.

Fender Custom Shop
Limited Edition ’ 51 Nocaster
($5000)
Okay, we’ll admit we’re suckers for this stuff, but Fender’s
Custom Shop continually releases unbelievable relics like this
’ 51 Nocaster, featuring a body of lightweight ash, a Twisted
Tele pickup in the neck and a Nocaster “U” shaped neck. With
only 50 to be available worldwide, you’d better get approved
for that line of credit quickly.
