I’m Kenny Redman – builder, fixer, and relentless tone-chaser behind KR Sound, based in Lafayette, Indiana.
If you’ve ever imagined the perfect guitar tone but couldn’t find the right gear to match it, you’re in the right place. At KR Sound, I specialize in custom guitar pedals, pedal repair, amp repair and upgrades, and guitar maintenance, offering both creative design and reliable service for working musicians and gear enthusiasts alike.
Choosing a custom pedal isn’t just about expanding your pedalboard. It’s about investing in your sound—your voice. Unlike factory-made pedals that share the same DNA, a custom build gives you something truly unique: a circuit tailored to your playing style, preferences, and tonal dreams.
Whether you’re after a warm, vintage fuzz or something experimental and modern, I work closely with you throughout the process to create a pedal that not only meets your expectations—but inspires new ones.
I use top-grade, road-tested components and build every pedal by hand with an eye for durability and detail. This isn’t mass production—this is small-batch gear with big-stage reliability. Whether it’s a custom build or a full repair, everything I make is built to last.
Some of my favorite projects involve bringing busted pedals and vintage units back to life. From simple fixes to more advanced circuit board repairs, I take pride in restoring vintage gear and rehabbing workhorses that just need a second wind. If it’s got potential, I’ll find it.
When you work with me, you’re supporting independent craftsmanship and a lifelong musician who’s obsessed with great tone and quality. Every pedal I make or repair is a labor of love, backed by experience, attention to detail, and a deep respect for the music you’re making.
