Match Box
The Goodrich Match Box is a true hidden gem in the world of guitar effects pedals. While it may not have the same name recognition as some of the more popular distortion and overdrive units, this unassuming little box packs a serious punch when it comes to sustaining your tone. At its core, the Match Box is a sophisticated plugin-style sustainer, designed to seamlessly extend the natural decay of your guitar's notes. But this isn't your average sustain pedal. Goodrich's engineers have meticulously tuned the circuitry to preserve all the nuance and harmonic complexity of your instrument, ensuring that your sustained notes retain the same rich, organic character as the original. What sets the Match Box apart is its uncanny ability to respond to your playing dynamics. Dig in with some extra attack, and the pedal will reward you with a thick, singing sustain that hangs in the air. Back off the strings, and it'll gracefully fade away, allowing you to shape your tone with effortless control. While the Match Box may not have been wielded by any famous shredders, its subtle magic has graced the rigs of countless session musicians and studio wizards over the years. If you're looking to add some next-level sustain to your sound without sacrificing your guitar's natural voice, the Goodrich Match Box is an absolute must-try.
