Fender's Slide recording interface provides most everything musicians need to
start using their mobile device (smartphone)
or Mac/PC as a recording, performing or guitar instructional workstation. Along with
simple and flexible connectivity, the Slide
includes two complimentary versions of IK
Multimedia's AmpliTube amp and FX modeling software, along with a complimentary
version of the Rock Prodigy Lite app, the
most complete and effective way to learn guitar. AmpliTube download links are listed in
the owner's manual (to obtain a Rock Prodigy
Lite license, visit: fender.com/slide and follow the registration prompts).

interface with a standard 1/4" instrument
cable, and use either included data cable
(Slide connect "L" for iOS devices (iPhones
and iPads or Slide connect "A" for Mac/PC)
to connect to your device. Players can monitor with headphones or fill the room with

the 60's and 70's. More often than not, he will
find a record or artist that will inspire him to
create a new pedal. Sometimes it takes 2 or 3
records or artists to fully develop an idea.
Now, think back to Jimi Hendrix and the
Band of Gypsies, Robin Trower's Bridge of
Sighs, or almost anything by David Gilmour,
and then open your creative
mind to the Purple Moon. It
's has taken a couple years
on the bench for Martin to
be satisfied because it has
been developed with very
creative guitarists in mind.
The Purple Moon is the
only True Bypass, all analog,
dual speed Vibe with Fuzz,
and it is your ticket to recreating the same classic guitar
sounds that inspired Carl.
Like the rest of the pedals in the Vintage
Series, the Purple Moon features
