What Dan & Brian Learned About The Hamstead Redwing Analogue Stereo Modulator [Best Mod Pedal Ever?]

Some Creative Ways To Use Modulation For Epic Guitar Tones
Welcome to the show. Back in November 2024, That Pedal Show and Hamstead Soundworks brought an incredible analogue stereo modulation machine to the market and they sold through quickly, becoming highly sought after.
Peter and the team at Hamstead - including Brian Love who is in this video – have made just 100 more before Peter takes some indefinite leave to concentrate on the wellbeing of his wife.
That means the Redwing will indeed be a rare bird for a while at least… Nevertheless, Brian and Dan are here to recap what they’ve learned using Redwing on their boards.
Even if you don’t have one, this video still has some great tone advice and inspiration for using your own favourite modulation.
Massive thanks to everyone at Hamstead, and of course we wish Peter and family all the very best for the road ahead.
Enjoy the show!
