Will MXR Drop a Dookie at NAMM?

MXR Billie Joe Armstrong Overdrive Pedal

Yesterday, Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong shared a picture on Instagram of what appears to be an MXR overdrive based on his tone from Dookie, Green Day’s breakthrough 1994 album.

Anyone going to NAMM?

A post shared by Billie Joe Armstrong (@billiejoearmstrong) on Jan 17, 2019 at 3:11pm PST

Our guess is that the pedal models the tone from Armstrong’s “Pete” amp, a modified Marshall Plexi he used during the Dookie era and continues to play today.

In the post, he also hints at a potential NAMM appearance, asking who is going to the show. Definitely expect more from us if he does make a showing!

Editor of the zZounds Blog. Donut snob. I love to write and to play guitar, so naturally, I love writing about guitars. My favorite kind of music is the kind that sounds like Muzak but cooler, you know?
