David's pedals aren't your typical TGP fare though. No transparent overdrives or fancy reverbs.
Still, doing a tourbox is good exposure no matter how debatable the intended results are.

That's how Source Audio went from being ignored to having their new line of digital products take off in a generally snobby analog crowd.
Kayzer is cool, but a lot of guitarists with "safe" tastes seem to ignore his demos and some even call it noise. Branching into the mainstream guys (Andy, M.Hermans @PGS, Burgs) will give traditionalists a warm & fuzzy introduction into something that would probably scare them off otherwise. Just my 2cs, though. A lot of good points brought up all around.

Thanks!
Who's Andy, and Burgs?

I don't have time right now to respond to your baseless accusations, goroth. I never said just do one or the other.

D. Rainger drives from house to house with a helmet-mounted camera and a cattle prod and electrocutes people while they play songs using the pedals.
I think a lot of the greatness of the Rainger pedals is in the performance capabilities of the Igor. It's hard to capture that in a typical video demo.
