I'm not gonna lie, the pandemic and everything that came after it has killed my creativity, I was just noodling and having a couple of riffs/licks but that was it. Tried some new gear here and there, but nothing made me play again. Until I heard about the Hephaestus, which a friend of mine bought! So I went down this rabbit hole, trying to get my hands on one of their Black Friday and then one of the Rhett Shull edition, tried a few other fuzz pedals that I thought could do the trick, but with no success. So when I saw that mythos made that pedal part of their main line, I just bought it, and I've been so happy since I got it in the mail last week! Absolutely love the unexpected harmonies that comes with this pedal, played around with a few power supplies as well, it's just awesome, I'm like a kid! I am by no mean a guitar virtuoso, but this pedal made me write music again!
Is it for everyone? Probably not. But is it fun to play with? F*** yes! I can be teenage-me and play some doom with it, or I can be dad's me, and lighten up my play. Really really cool pedal!
