I broke my long pedal celibacy to get an EAE Longsword, this thing fucking rips :rock:

I've been having/fighting some mental "obstacles" the past year or so, and am going to resist the build to order format for a while and focus on short run of various designs.

The Monobius will be built in two flavors, the five knob/three switch standard, and the nine knob/six switch blown out variety. I'm really fond of shipping same or next day I get an order, and am going to bask in that at the expense of purchasers having input on finish or what device is next in line for a while.

Been really intrigued by your pedals, especially the Hogshead and Mudlark.

I've followed your Reverb store to hopefully try to score them - however, please let me know if it's better to contact you to order them ( :

Spaceman stuff is so well put together:

I prefer this Gemini IV to the previous Gemini III (which is going for silly amounts of money on the used market). Too bad it got a little bigger, but I love the expanded control on this one, which would have been hard to pull off in the old size.

Went into a local shop to buy a guitar stand and came out with a new acoustic earlier today. Simon and Patrick Songsmith in faded Bourbon burst:

Hey ILFamily, been on holiday for a couple of weeks and now I'm buried by work etc, so I missed most of last month.
Meanwhile I managed to sell some stuff so i finally have a Particle 2 incoming, can't wait to put my hands on it and see if it's really what I'm looking for.

I recommend doing my $1 mod to it, where you add a starve knob to the battery. I can't embed the YT video, but it allows you to get all the normal sounds plus all the oscillating, glitchy, subby and octave-y stuff you get as the battery is dying. It's gross and amazing.

thanks! i remember seeing this before i think. mine's literally brand new so i may wait for the warranty to expire before cutting holes and whatnot

edit: oh wow that's hardly an invasive mod haha :lol:

I honestly think I could easily live with a board with 3 Bitquests and nothing else

incoming: No. 59 Ibanez Standard Fuzz.

I'm not even THAT into vintage pedals, what with all the superior and cheaper booteek alternatives out there these days.
But yeah...The pedal's mojo caught me off guard. Don't browse reverb/ebay while drunk kids :facepalm:

I grabbed a secondhand quilter microblock for peace of mind at gigs. It sounds pretty nice through my vibrolux cab. I was worried it wouldn't do a good job of cleans but it ain't bad. Not quite as sparkly as i like (i set amps quite trebly and roll back the guitar tone) but still very nice for something the size of a pedal. it has wobbly knob syndrome which makes me a little bit worried about build quality but we'll see about that i guess!
