"They sound really, really great!"

For the grand finale of the Summer of Stringjoy, one lucky player will win a truly special rig upgrade inspired by Radiohead’s sonic secret weapon, and Stringjoy artist, Ed O’Brien.

The prize includes an Ed O’Brien Sustainer Stratocaster alongside several of the rare and distinctive pedals Ed has relied on to create some of Radiohead’s most iconic sounds and textures: an Origin Effects Cali76 Compressor, Kingsley Page Tube Boost, Boss DD-5 Digital Delay, and Electro-Harmonix Deluxe Memory Man Analog Delay, plus a gig bag and a set of Ed's preferred Stringjoy 10-46 Broadway strings.
