The First Guitar Effects Ever

Today I take us on a journey to experience the original effects used on guitar. Along with Nick and Zach, I jam on some groovy tunes that may sound vaguely familiar using these original effects. In the comments below, let me know what your favorite effect from today was, which one you think affected electric guitar and music the most, and your favorite early distorted guitar tone from between 1945 and 1955.
