Affiliate Disclosure

Overview

Fader & Knob is a participant in several affiliate advertising programs designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by linking to partnered retailers. When you click on certain links on our site and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission at no additional cost to you.

Our Affiliate Partners

We currently participate in the following affiliate programs:

• Amazon Associates — As an Amazon Associate, Fader & Knob earns from qualifying purchases made through links to amazon.com.
• Sweetwater — We earn commissions on purchases made through our Sweetwater affiliate links.
• Reverb — We earn commissions on qualifying purchases made through our Reverb affiliate links.
• FlexOffers — We participate in the FlexOffers affiliate network, which connects us with various music gear and equipment retailers.

We may add or change affiliate partners over time. This page will be updated accordingly.

How Affiliate Links Work

Some of the links on Fader & Knob — including links on gear pages, tone recipe pages, and blog posts — are affiliate links. When you click one of these links and complete a purchase on the retailer’s site, we may earn a small commission from that sale. This commission comes from the retailer and does not increase the price you pay. You will never pay more by using our links compared to visiting the retailer directly.

Editorial Independence

Our affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial content, tone recipe recommendations, or gear reviews in any way. Every tone recipe on Fader & Knob is created based on genuine research into how artists achieve their signature sounds. Gear recommendations are based on sonic accuracy and practical usefulness — not on which products generate the highest commissions.

We will never recommend a product solely because it has an affiliate program. All opinions, recommendations, and signal chain suggestions on this site are our own and reflect our honest assessment of what will help you achieve great tone.

Why We Use Affiliate Links

Running Fader & Knob — researching tones, building signal chains, and maintaining the site — takes considerable time and resources. Affiliate commissions help us keep the site running and free to use. By purchasing through our links, you directly support the creation of more tone recipes and gear guides at no extra cost to yourself.

FTC Compliance

In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255), we disclose our affiliate relationships on this page and throughout the site where affiliate links appear. Pages containing affiliate links include a disclosure notice.
