The El Diablo Pedal Swap Event is BACK at the beautiful Como Lakeside Pavilion on Saturday, Aug. 10th, sponsored by the Lakeside Guitar Festival! If you haven’t been to one of our Pedal Swaps, it’s really great fun! Here’s how it works: Gather up your gently used guitar/bass effect pedals (Minimum of 2), and register for the event on our website (link in Bio). Registered participants will lay out their pedals for display, and trading takes place from 11:45 am to 12:45 pm. You can arrange straight trades (pedal for pedal), trades plus cash, or cash transactions with your fellow musicians. HUNDREDS of pedals will be on offer!! Register today!!
Tips and Tricks:
1. TEST your pedal at home BEFORE coming to the swap. Gear gremlins are real! If the pedal has been sitting for a while, test it. Even if it worked last week, TEST it again!!
2. Take a moment to CLEAN your pedals and find the original boxes if you have them.
3. Price tags are handy and help speed up trades. Check Reverb or eBay, get a sense for what your pedal is worth and write it down somewhere!
4. We STRONGLY recommend the use of PayPal or VenMo (rather than actual cash) when purchasing as an added layer of protection and peace of mind.
5. If your pedal requires 12V/18V power, mark it clearly on the pedal and bring the dedicated power supply. We’ll have power supplies on hand as well.
6. Tell all your friends! The more the merrier!
If you haven’t been to an El Diablo Pedal Swap, you’re in for a treat! It’s a super fun day to meet new friends and catch up with old pals, compare notes about the Mpls/St. Paul music scene, chat about gear, compare collections, and much more. We hope to see you on the 12th!
