<p>The CHK CHK BOOM works by feeding your effects loop input to it&#8217;s output.</p>
<p>The CHK CHK BOOM has a momentary switch so it&#8217;s only on when your foot is on it. This is a good thing because its perfect for short blasts of crazy noise mixed into other melodic content. It&#8217;s also great when you&#8217;re playing through a delay and you want the delay to swell and feedback with out bending down to twist a knob.</p>
<p>Every other feedback pedal out there has a latched switch, which in my opinion, doesn&#8217;t work as well for the kind of sound this pedal produces.<br />
(If you do want a latched switch I can produce a custom one for you. Email for a quote.)</p>

<strong>Construction </strong></p>
<p>There&#8217;s no battery or power source to worry about so it won&#8217;t take up a much needed power cord on you pedal board.There are no over-priced, poorly made warts to buy.</p>
<p><strong>Art Design</strong></p>
<p>The CHK CHK BOOM was born from a hand crafted litter of 10 in Brooklyn, NY. Each pedal is hand painted with a unique color combination and hand serial numbered.</p>
<p>You&#8217;ve got yourself a collectible, Champ.</p>

<strong>Warranty</strong></p>
<p>All pedals come with a lifetime warranty. I&#8217;ll fix or replace them at anytime.</p>
