➍ ALEXANDER PEDALS CHANNELS ITS INNER WOBBLE WITH THE CHESAPEAKE ➍ Alexander’s Chesapeake takes chorus and vibrato effects and puts them through the Alexander machine, delivering three separate modes of chorus, which can be turned into pitch vibrato simply by turning the mix knob. Alexander’s platform allows for tap tempo with subdivisions, stereo outs and an external tap switch for players who prefer to have it in the back row. ➎ DIGITECH STAYS GOLDEN WITH THE NAUTILA ➎ The Nautila gives players a choice between chorus and flanger, then explores both effects to their absolute ends. Six total knobs that go beyond simple rate and depth give players full control over the modulation, including controls for number of voices, emphasis and DigiTech’s unique blendable wave feature. The wave control spins in a 360-degree motion to morph seamlessly between LFO waveforms. ➏ SUPRO UNVEILS THE 1600 SUPREME ➏ The Supreme 1600 is Supro’s recreation of the legendary late-‘50s Valco-built Supro and Oahu amps that Keith Richards preferred. This no-nonsense 25-watt 1x10 amp contains two inputs for two different instruments at the same time. However, when a single instrument plus into input 1+2, the gain stages are combined for a thick rock ‘n’ roll tone and double the gain. The Supreme 1600 is loaded with 12AX7 preamp tubes, 6V6 power tubes and a custombuilt large-magnet Supro speaker. ToneReport.com 9
