Short But Sweet Video Demo Of The Love Pedal Eternity Overdrive

13. December 2007

Ever since guitar-slinger extraordinaire Andy Summers gushed about the Eternity Overdrive pedal in Guitar Player Magazine I’ve been keeping an eye out for a decent video demo.

Perhaps I missed the announcement during my grief (ongoing,) but it looks like Gibson has introduced a newly innovated re-issue of their ‘68 Custom Les Paul––the aptly titled Custom Shop 1968 Les Paul Custom Chambered.

Well, I haven’t seen any official announcement from Fender on either of these beauties, but I’m assuming this is another pre-Christmas move to try and get a fair number of lower-cost Strats under all those Christmas trees. According to the small amount of info I have, Fender has now re-issued two of their popular “Texas Style” [...]
