I know I'm late to the party, but are these beauties still available?

They gone.


BUT! Let's say a guy is *hypothetically* negotiating with a company to release another run, or maybe release a slightly tweaked "HEQ2."

Would you folks want any of the trim pots brought to the front of the pedal? Is the layout cool as-is? Should I fill the enclosures with chocolate syrup? Should I rehouse a DOD Grunge in HEQ1 enclosures? Yeah?

If anyone is interested I put together a two page PDF of the HEQ1 manual you can print out. I got tired of getting up and walking over to my computer to look at it online, plus I don't have a computer at my practice space (at least not one hooked up the internet). I pulled everything off the website, plus some info on the trim pots from this thread.

Shoot me your email and I'll send it over.

Haha, hopefully none more, at least, of the HEQ1.

If this happens, it will become a "production" product (and probably cost a little more). I'm not a fan of doing lots of limited runs of the same/nearly the same pedal.


....unless that's what the people want. :idk:

All makes sense, and I can see charging more...for a production HEQ-2 with the internal trims on the front and chocolate syrup unicorn blood angel snot expression inputs on the side :snax: :love:

*If* some other form of the HEQ1 is ever released, I officially give you all permission to tell everyone that the original run sounds better. :p

It might seem daunting but I'm sure he can manage to sell off the 159 that don't make the cut.
good deals are here.

To him they all make the cut!! :lol:

He isn't ever selling them I don't think. He has his favorites but he loves them all.
I told him about the HEQ1 and he knows we both have the same tastes so...
