Allparts Pedal Glove


Effects Manipulation in the Palm of Your Hand
Out with the stompbox and in with the squeezebox. The power of effects manipulation is now in the palm of your hand. Introducing the Allparts Pedal Glove - a bold union of classic Arion effects pedals and rugged fingerless gloves. Sound good and look better, all without using your feet.

Currently available as a left-handed glove for right-handed guitar players, the pedal glove is activated simply by squeezing the neck of your guitar.

Available in Wah-Wah, Distortion, Delay (digital or stereo), Octave, and Chorus Glove models.

Features:
Lined with luxurious synthetic fur to keep your hands cool and dry while keeping moisture away from sealed electronic components.

Glove lining (randomly selected leopard or zebra print) channels the power and freedom of African beasts.

Looks more awesome than a regular glove and a regular pedal.

Keep the crowd guessing by plugging headphones into the dual 3.5mm headphone jack so that only you can hear the effects.

Adjustable tension spring allows for custom pedal sensitivity while the unique plastic-foam alloy protects your neck's finish and wood from abrasions, indentations, wear, and sweaty palms.

Compatible with all stringed instruments, most hand sizes, and anything with an electrical current.
Maintenance and Care:
If loss of awesome is evident, apply Allparts Tuning Spray.
WARNING:
Avoid adjusting while wearing the Pedal Glove.

Avoid celebratory "high 5's" with other Pedal Glove users, as this could result in effects crosstalk and talent exchange.
Customer Feedback:

Let's face it - every guitarist knows there's the way YOU think the music should be, and then there's what the audience wants. The pedal glove's headphone jack is a godsend! Now I can play the way I want to play while giving the audience the junk they want to hear. I can finally deal with being at my own gigs now. It's win-win." - Harry O.

"I recently picked up an Allparts Distortion Glove. Not only does it free up my feet for jumping around on-stage, but it looks and feels great too. I upped the coolness big-time by putting it on my other hand and playing back-handed. It's rough on my nails, but the ladies dig it. I'll send pics soon. Thanx Allparts!" - Michael E.

"I have often found myself having to balance being a musician with the responsibilities of being a parent. I used to keep my kids awake all night with my practicing. But now my kids can sleep every single school night because I just sit in my recliner, wear my pedal glove, and know that I'm awesome and free - just like a Zebra. Thank you, Allparts." - Phil F.

"This thing is way more than a must-have tool for musicians - it's a must-have tool for life. With some chicken wire, a set of chopsticks, and 9-volt battery, I was able to rig this thing up to empty my cat's litter box automatically. So guess what? I'm gonna slap on a fresh battery, fill the bath tub with moist cat food, and hit up Vegas for a month. See ya, suckers." - Dean P.

Return Policy

At Allparts Music Corporation's discretion, returns, refunds, or credits may be accepted or issued within 60 days of the original purchase. However, this product cannot be returned. We worked through countless evenings and weekends and poured too much time and effort into Pedal Glove R&D just to have you send it back. One guy even ended up getting a divorce, but we all sorta saw that coming for a while now, so it may be unrelated. We don't tell him that, of course, because he's not very good at accepting responsibility for, like, anything. Plus, he's lost a bunch of weight and that kinda needs to go on for a while longer.

Defective merchandise may be returned up to one year from the date of purchase provided no alterations have been made.

Sale and Closeout products may be sent back for exchange or store credit only; no refunds.

Return Form
To return any products from your order, please print and fill out a return form and include it with your return package. Only one return form is necessary.

I can't recall the last names, but I think Harry and Phil are salesmen at AllParts. This reminds me that I need to call Harry. And possibly order one of these gloves...

Allparts Tuning Spray | Allparts.com

Allparts Tuning Spray
Guaranteed to make whatever you spray it on sound, look, and smell different.
Instantly tune your guitar, bass, or any sound-making device with just a couple sprays. Bring 21st century technology to your priceless Vintage guitar! Do away with cumbersome tools that can scratch and damage your gear. Allparts Tuning Spray goes on quickly, won't wash off underwater, and is safe around cats. Before you play it, spray it!

Ideal for use on:
- Guitars
- Basses
- Amps
- Pipe Organs
- Speakers
- Exhaust Pipes
- Headphones / Earbuds
- Drums
- Bagpipes
- Bird Calls

Directions:
- Test on an inconspicuous area, like the hood of your neighbor's family minivan.
- Apply to entire instrument including backside. This prevents your body from interfering with intonation.

Storage:
- Store with cap off, facing instrument, so tuning can take place while you are away, working or sleeping.

WARNING:
Will probably combust upon coming in contact with cardboard or fruit, but it's safe to use around your cat, so that sort of balances things out in the end.

HA! I really need to call Harry now. I mean Hoss...

Ironically, I live about three hours from Harry. The only time we've met? At NAMM in Anaheim.
