Yuki Hayashi had a dream. Unlike most of us Yuki was able to manifest that dream into something tangible, audible and stompable the very next day. Enter the Heat Blaster, an unabashed distortion pedal which owes its inspiration to high gain amps and Yuki's tenacity. It first saw the light of day during Yuki's tenure at Providence but it has recently been upgraded somewhat and released once again under Yuki's own Free The Tone brand. The pedal has all sorts of subtle EQ options and possibilities, designed specifically for the pro who will appreciate such versatility on stage. The Heat Blaster is a formidable and very musical distortion pedal. As we sometimes say in Australia, it's a ripper!
