Meet James, the first player to debut in our new series of 2011 MXR demos. James’ simple setup includes his Telecaster through the MXR Custom Badass ‘78 Distortion into a Vox AC30. This factory-modded pedal roars with huge amp stack tones and old school tube amp-like distortion. Expect more ‘78 Distortion videos with a variety of players through an assortment of amps and guitars in the near future. We’d love to hear your thoughts on the new demos – let us know what you think!
