Punch Pedals Uppercut (Greg Marra Signature Distortion / Overdrive)

I’m using this along with a Bugera 1990 Infinium head and Harley Benton 2×12 with Celestion Vintage 30 speakers. The guitar is a Schecter Silver Mountain FRS.

All of the existing Guitar MAX instructional programs are now available through the online course platform Teachable.

Downloads are still available through Sellfy, however over time this platform will be phased out.
