Amazing hardback goodness!
STOMPBOX BOOK THE BRICK
Here’s what Stompbox say about The Brick box set:
A slipcased box-set of Stompbox and Vintage & Rarities books.
This exclusive “Stompbox brick” box set may be heavy, but the pedals and players you’ll find inside of it are even heavier – so please remember to lift with your legs!
Not only do these two volumes contain fresh interviews with nearly 150 noted musicians, collectors and pedal designers, but some of the stompboxes pictured within are so rare and obscure that even diehard experts had trouble identifying them. If your heart isn’t pounding with severe GAS (Gear Acquisition Syndrome) after just a few pages, you may not actually be alive!
Included in The Brick
A hardcover 3 mm thick slipcase with a logo cutout.
Foil Stamping on spine.
Stompbox City. An 18×24 In poster with original collage artwork by Morgan Jesse Lappin.

Vintage & Rarities: 333 Cool, Crazy and Hard to Find Guitar Pedals
A companion book to Stompbox: 100 Pedals of the World’s Greatest Guitarists
Originally created to expand the sound of the electric guitar, stompboxes have become collectible, highly-fetishized objets d’art, often prized as much for their looks, quirks and history as for their sonic properties.
Photographer Eilon Paz and writer/editor Dan Epstein – the team behind Stompbox: 100 Pedals of the World’s Greatest Guitarists – have scoured the globe in search of some of the rarest, weirdest and most iconic stompboxes in existence. Vintage & Rarities: 333 Cool, Crazy and Hard to Find Guitar Pedals features lustrous, exquisitely-detailed photographs of primitive fuzzboxes, one-off prototypes, whimsical boutique creations and elaborate multi-effects units—many of which have never been seen before, even by hardcore collectors.
Vintage & Rarities also features profiles of 25 pedal collectors from around the world – including legendary musicians Adrian Belew, Henry Kaiser and David Torn, Beastie Boys producer Mario Caldato Jr., and celebrated pedal builders Oliver Ackermann (Death By Audio), Mike Piera (Analog Man) and Josh Scott (JHS) – all of whom share their personal tales of stompbox addiction, while offering additional insight into these fascinating devices.
