DUST & RITUALS

you're excused pubes or shrooms

The new ILF game show!

Can I put my board on the dishwasher to clean the pedals?

[neonblack]

Can confirm. Just washed my pedalboard in the dishwasher. The pedals don't work anymore but hot damn they are sparkling

[lost in music]

I always think I'm pretty good at housekeeping until I go to sell a pedal.

Better stop selling then

I mean some shit is acceptable. I've literally had to break out the Clorox wipes and go to town on a few pedals I've gotten in trade. Almost always have to tear the velcro off because either A)it has damn cat hair in it and I'm allergic to cats or B)it's not the loop side (these guys make me sick!!! You backwards bastards!!!!!!)

General wear and tear is totally acceptable, but if a pedal looks like you drug it through the mud...that's not cool IMO. Just imagine yourself receiving it. Also I've gotten pedals and opened the box and it reeked like cigarettes. LOL! How do you even accomplish that? hahaha.

Funny, last time I saw Jwar he drugged me through the mud

[gnomethrone]

How do you get cat hair out of velcro? I always clean pedals before shipping but that shits impossible.

[resincum]

with a razor blade, 1 by 1

[UglyCasanova]

I go over them every now and then, mostly to make sure the pots don't crap out on me, and always before shipping if I've made a trade/sale.

Meh, boring answer is boring.

[Disarm D'arcy]

My cleaning technique is to hold the vacuum cleaner over the pedlols and to move the dust and hair around with a soft paintbrush. Clean.

It's "dragged".


"... dragged through the mud".

Well I was raised in Missouri. We have a ton of dialect quirks, so eat me.

My point still stands you nasty motherfuckers.

My first fuzz was a Little Big Muff that I bought off of GC's used site. The pedal itself was immaculate, but the box smelled like someone had been exhaling secret cigarette puffs into it for years.

[D.o.S.]

Yeah Jwar is in that weird 'not incorrect but not used outside of (mostly) the Midwest + Mountain time' zone with 'drug'.


It's really, really easy to keep your gear from smelling like cigarette smoke, though. I don't know how anyone fucks that up.

Every time I smoked, I drugged my pedals with me to make sure they savor the aroma
