About me

Gender	Male
Location	Huntington Beach, CA
Introduction	My name is Bill Burk, I've been playing guitar for over 30 years. My first amp was a Silverface Fender Champ. I ended up buying an MXR flanger, an MXR Dynacomp, and some used Boss pedals-- a DS-1, a stereo chorus, a purple flanger and a stereo delay, all analog. I bought a Boss OD-2 later to replace the DS-1. These were all sold after I bought a rack-mount Real Tube Overdrive and a Digitech delay. Years later around 1997, I bought an EH Memory Man and an Electric Mistress, as well as a Matchless Dirt Box. From the year 2000-2008 I owned a few more random pedals. After I bought my Fender Bassman 59 Ltd in 2007, I started buying pedals again for use with the amp. I have about 40 pedals now, I plan on reviewing all of them eventually, plus any new ones I end up with. There are no overtly negative reviews, if I buy a pedal I don't like, I either return it or sell it, it never gets reviewed. Just because I don't care for a pedal doesn't mean that maybe someone else out there can't live without it! Check out my reviews, from the ex-vocalist/guitarist of Hunger Farm.
