Inspired in part by Led Zeppelin’s pick-playing multi-instrumentalist John Paul Jones, Connecticut and New York-based musicians Mark Labbe and Michael DePietro crafted their own variation of that band’s “The Lemon Song” — they simply made lemonade out of the deficiencies they found in standard flat picks by creating their new Acoustik Attak brand of revolutionary 3D guitar and bass “piks.”
The patented series debuts with the “Attak” and “Ambush” models, each designed to achieve similar effects to electronic pedals or equalizers at a fraction of the cost. Unlike standard plectrums, Acoustik Attak Piks feature patented sets of ridges, bumps, diamonds and other designs on the top and bottom sides of their attack zone tips. These create multiple strikes on strings, enhanced harmonics, and new frequencies that were literally unheard of beforehand.
“It’s a new path for sound enhancement and effect production,” says Chairman & CEO DePietro. “We are attempting to do this through scientific engineering with the given components and tools of guitars and basses, rather than adding electronics to modify and enhance their sound.”
Keven is proud to be an artist that plays Tru-Fi Pedals.
Tru-Fi builds some of the finest guitar pedals in the world encased in brightly coloured, super durable cases. These pedals are used by the likes of Joe Satriani, Marcus King, Billy Gibbons and Peter Frampton, among many others. Handmade, beautifully painted and a vintage tone that only the most skilled builders can create.
Keven currently uses the Tru-Fi Ultra Tremolo Pedal, a warm vintage Trem that thickens the tone ala Chris Stapleton or Marcus King.
Keven has recently added the custom built 'Dakendrive' Overdrive pedal to his board.
Sparkbox fx are a custom guitar pedal builder based in Dartmouth, NS. Keven's custom 'Dakendrive' is a Klone pedal with transparent overdrive and a wide range of distortion at your finger tips! Check out Sparkbox fx!
Keven's main electric guitar is a Fender Telecaster with Seymour Duncan Quarter Pounder Pickups, a white pearl pick guard and all chrome hardware. Fondly nicknamed "Merle", this guitar is seen at all the live shows and packs a punch and a twang!
