Description

The world's first vintage effects collection book, covering everything from mainstream to unorthodox.
Records and memories of a collection that was dedicated to a life and poured with extraordinary love.

Yuichiro Hosokawa is a world-renowned effects pedal collector and aficionado.
His life's work, to which he has devoted most of his life, is the research of effects pedals.
The company inspects all kinds of brands from around the world, past and present, from vintage to the latest models, and checks over 3,000 vehicles a year.
This book is the world's first collection book to focus on vintage pedals produced and sold from his collection between the 1960s and 1980s, and to bring together a selection of the finest models from that collection.

From the world's first compact effects pedal, the FZ-1, to the legendary Buzzaround distortion pedal beloved by Robert Fripp (King Crimson), the BIG MUFF Rams Head series, which was studied not only for its differences in color and font appearance but also for its circuit boards, to extremely rare Japanese effects pedals that were short-lived but left their mark with their strong personalities, this program delves deep into the appeal of the pedals that he loves, from classic classics that have made their mark throughout history to mysterious, unorthodox models, while also discussing the development background and changes in part specifications.

Every effect pedal that has ever been created has a meaning... You can sense this when you look at the wide range of models featured. Please take your time to enjoy the many carefully selected masterpieces that have been collected with extraordinary love. (Editor: Bitou Masaya)
