Caroline Guitar Company

Caroline Guitar Company We make some of the best sounding effects pedals we've ever heard. That being said, we're biased.

Attitude, fun, taking your sound seriously, not taking ourselves too seriously.

For most of us, the classics are a perfectly fine destination. For us, they were an inspiration.

With the havoc feedback looping and voltage sag, there are sounds in Wave Cannon you just cannot get from anything else like it.

I guess there’s a reason people didn’t use the direct out on the Marshall JCM800 very often 🤣

What’s your take?

You’re telling me about Aquanet, Hypercolor tees and John Byrne comic book art? I can remember how they smell feel and look. From firsthand experience.

SOMERSAULT has that sound.

What, you thought we’d only make special stuff for the Canadians?

Presenting 24K Golden Pizza. A celebratory limited batch of pizzas featuring NOS Motorola transistors, oxblood console k***s and golden 3PDT switches.

We really had no idea how gnarly these transistors were until we built one with them. Then we went back and retested them. They are SPICY 🌶️

Available from some of our most assertive retailers, and direct from our site.

We kind of stan for the Audio Technica ATM29 mic - it’s a classic slice of 1990s neodymium hypercardioid that somehow slipped through the cracks. How does its update sound through your phone speakers?

We have a Tremburger winner!
And as much as I’d like to say it’s because of “Run Like Hell” or “Keep Yourself Alive” that I got into pedals, the truth is that it was always more about peers and friends were learning about and using, and how we’d share that info. Blame John McAteer and Jc Kuhl
Community matters. Get out there and play and interact with people.

There’s a whole bunch of people who love to tell you that things you care about don’t matter, won’t make any difference, your audience couldn’t tell, and so on.

But when you’re designing this stuff, and you discover a difference that matters to you, you want people to discover that difference for themselves as well.

Chris Rossi at Dusky Electronics gave old octal preamp tubes a shot cause, well why not? And he discovered how much he loved using them.

Proxima A amp orders are open now. Heck of an amp.

This amp kicks ass.

We had the distinct pleasure of hosting Chris Rossi of Dusky Electronics for a nice chat about his design process and play through his new Proxima A amplifier.

A lot of amps have claimed to have switchable, distinct voices; this one really does it. The feel and gain structure feels wildly different.

Full video is up on our YouTube channel. It was a great chat and the clips…as good as they are, we wish you’d been in the room with us!

What’s the deal breaker weight for you on a guitar? Is it different for different models/eras?
