Used this week's optional challenge as an excuse to buy a cheapish stereo reverb pedal, set up both my amps, and pull out all my guitar pedals. Hopefully, this will all work out.

Oh, and this weekend a friend is making me a Big Muff clone.

Yeah not a pedal of mine went unused this fight, minus my crybaby cause it doesn't always work right. I'm curious who's going to have the most effects pedals this round?

People in the #guitar-nerds Slack channel at my job keep posting pictures of the amazing guitars they are seemingly constantly buying. Somebody just got a gorgeous used ES-335, somebody else some kind of super fancy Suhr Strat-style shredder with a figured maple top and roasted maple neck, and somebody else got one of these Fender Tele Mágico's, which look SO awesome.

Anyone have any experience with the Schecter PT Van Nyus?
I just spent some time with one and it's quite sweet! Love the jumbo frets and its clean tone.
