Ha! I do sometimes, but mainly it's all this RFX stuff.
I think a pedal's got to sound new and different.
And it's got to look good too... Got to be something you want to carry round with you. (So being cute and small helps!)
I think that second aspect puts some people off sometimes... They think equipment has to look 'serious' and 'proper'.
I say bollocks to that. It's got to sound 'serious' and 'proper' (whatever that is), but if you have a problem with cuteness, then go away.
If I had to make pedals that were lumpy and grey (sound or appearance) I would stop right now!
I think it's really important to have some people who absolutely hate what you do! You can't do it without them - and the massive hordes who love you. The worst thing is if everyone 'quite likes' it. Gotta piss some people off!
But not here - among my peeps!
Totally agreed!
Got a good chuckle out of the hate part, I see what you mean.
