Mr. Pedaltrain and Mr. Bullet Cable

By admin | Published: February 3, 2012

Here is another clip from NAMM highlights. Working with our good friend, John Chandler (“Mr. Pedaltrain”), we wired a few boards for his booth and worked together with our other promo-partner, Eventide, supplying boards and wire for their demo setup too.

Interview with John Chandler and Ted McCann by The Tone King
You can see full interview about new pedal boards by pedal train by visiting his YouTube channel

“Ted is always talking about cables because he makes them and is passionate about them. He told me he was working on a new wire for pedalboards and I was like, ‘I’m ready. Send it to me when you’ve got it.’ I’m always skeptical, but when I got these things and I saw how easy they were (they were the easiest thing to put together), they’re full proof in their design, they sound fantastic, and they work perfect. I am like, ‘Game over. You [Ted] just made a game changer.’” John Chandler, Pedaltrain Founder

Eventide used Bullet Cable for cables and Pedaltrain for demo boards in their 2012 NAMM booth

Live From Rock ‘n Roll Ranch: Sound Advice

By admin | Published: January 16, 2012

Live From Rock ‘n Roll Ranch, presents nightly internet radio programs featuring interviews with artists and music news.

Ted McCann, designer of all things Bullet Cable, has been asked to guest on their weekly spot, ‘Sound Advice’ hosted by Pieter Holland. Together they hope to answer the big question: What makes a good cable? This is an entertaining interview about the construction and durability factors of cable without the ‘snake oil claims’ that have confused even the seasoned tech and musician. The spot will focus predominantly on the time honored Silver Bullet Cable (introduced in 2004). Pieter recently put the the Silver Bullet to the test which included live play on tour this holiday season.

Ok.. I know what your thinking.. Here is another Guitar Cable review..
But it’s not.. I know you have heard all there is to know about Cable reviews but this one is going to be a little different due to the fact this Cable is different…Bullet Cable Review, Pieter Holland

Catch the interview at 8:00 P.M. and Midnight E.S.T. (5:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. P.S.T.)

Besides being an internet radio talk show host, Pieter Holland plays guitar and sings. He just finished off the Rock Legends Cruise where he played for the Marshall Tucker Band. ZZTop and George Thorogood headlined the show.

Marty Hill of Preacher Stone grabs the video camera and goes on stage to film the Marshall Tucker Band rocking “Can’t You See.” It’s a who’s who of musicians

Adeline, singer/bass player, recently got in touch to tell us of her upcoming gigs. She has been using the Bullet Cable Coil in white for all of her shows. She’s been using them since this past April when she guested onstage with Raphael Saadiq and he and his band were using them. Raphael, if you remember, honored us last year by using the cable on stage during his Grammys 2011 Award performance where he sang with legendary rock star, Mick Jagger. This year, Adeline is scheduled to be sitting in with The Roots at their Grammy party in LA.

“Just like my music, Bullet Coil Cables are cutting edge yet with a cool retro vibe.” ~Adeline, bassist

Adeline has been lead singer for “The Crowd”, has completed a disco project in another band called, “Escort” and is also doing solo performances singing and playing an update version of 70′s soul/funk.
Here’s some video of a rehearsal of her singing a cover of the Betty Bibb’s classic from the 70s, “Pounds Of Soul”.

This past weekend Adeline performed at the APAP convention in New York, the largest arts presenters conference in North America. In February, she’s been asked to headline at the 65th Anniversary gala at the United Nations.
To hear more, visit Adeline’s official website: Adeline

Thanks Adeline for taking us along on your journey. You Rock!
