KMA Audio Machines, a German company that brings together the high-quality engineering that the country is famed for and combines it with a love of creative musical expression, has launched a new effects pedal that embraces a more streamlined approach than many contemporary pedals.
The 'Queequeg 2' effects pedal is effectively an upgraded version of its predecessor, the Queequeg Sub Generator. The key changes revolve around the additions of sub-octave ranges that can be selected via a simple toggle mechanism. Moreover, the LED display ensures that players are always fully aware of what tone they're using.
Available for a price of around $168, the 'Queequeg 2' effects pedal is designed for guitarists who want to explore the musical realms made possible by lower octave ranges.
