In this video, I made a riff using the brand new Archangel pedal by Spline Laboratories. This is their brand new drive pedal designed with a built-in noise gate and developed for the modern metal guitarist. It will create devastatingly heavy tones within a few seconds of twisting a few knobs.
The first part of the video is a full demo mix using the pedal and the second part of the video is jamming and improvising riffs using the pedal in a raw playthrough with no post-processing.
This might be my favourite modern drive pedal of all-time.
Spline Laboratories nailed it out of the park with this one!
