Carl Martin

Maine-based guitarist and songwriter Jack Fossett just took a deep dive into our Carl Martin Tone Tweaker — and he kept it refreshingly honest: it’s “not exactly what you’d call sexy.” 🫣
Fair enough 😄 We never designed it to turn heads — we designed it to fix tones 😉

What Jack also delivers — with his usual sharp ears, clear explanations and no-nonsense approach — is a spot-on demonstration of just how crucial a pedal like this can be in a serious rig. He shows how the Tone Tweaker’s EQ section and 12 dB boost don’t just shape your sound — they tighten it, clarify it, and make everything else on your board sound better. 👌

And as Jack himself puts it… “it might be the most useful pedal on your board.”
Honestly? We’ll take that over “sexy” any day. 😃 Thanks Jack!!

🎸✨ New Video Alert! ✨🎸

The Carl Martin HeadRoom Mini is designed to deliver a natural, highly responsive reverb – one that follows every nuance of your playing and blends seamlessly with your tone.

In this new video, our good friend, the award-winning guitarist El Amir showcases exactly that. His expressive flamenco guitar work meets the HeadRoom Mini’s rich, dynamic reverb, creating a sound that feels alive and deeply connected to every note. El Amir himself describes the pedal as studio-quality reverb in a pedal format.

👉 Hear how the pedal adapts to the player – and why it’s more than just an effect.
