On the threshold of his 25th anniversary, Dr. No transcends all boundaries once more.
With his unmistakable signature style, in profound collaboration with Troy Van Leeuwen, he has forged the most elaborate artistic guitar effects release ever conceived — a monumental work that eclipses all that came before.
A historic milestone where guitar history and art history become one.
Troy Van Leeuwen & Dr. No Effects reunite to create the Blameshifter for the band, The TvL Decade Collectors Edition, Blameshifters for QOTSA, Blameshifter DrumSticks, and their newest “Switching Architect” the TvL Blameshifter.

Ten years after first joining forces — a partnership that gave us the now cult-status TvL Raven and TvL Octavia in 2016 — these two sonic architects have reunited.
Troy and Dr. No initially set out to create the “Blameshifter” for the band — a guitar effect born from an inside joke that’s persisted for decades throughout QOTSA rehearsals. Troy, Dean, Mikey, and Josh each received their own Blameshifter; Troy designed the architecture of the internal switching labyrinth, while Dr. No brought it to life, handling the physical, cosmetic, and technical aspects in his signature style.

Although the units were originally intended exclusively for the band to use on their upcoming tour, Dr. No and Troy have decided to release a limited run of the Blameshifter.
