Thanks guys, Tanya appreciates it!

We're gonna do another 125 of the on-the-air finish in February and then I don't know what the next ones will look like for March but I could see there being a new finish then.

Jack, nice graph you whipped up there!

Pete, it's a new style of purple LED... very bright and clear but no colour changing... and yeah, I think you could probably talk Tanya into a special Tremolessence. Or who knows, you could win one very soon...

Manuel, think of the priceless collection you're gonna have... say a thousand years from now, at the height of the ant people civilization, your mini-RRRs will probably be worth a fortune!

Hmm, very true Ryan... in that case, I'll buy 100!! Btw, where exactly are you sending those skywatcher mini RRRs to? Also, is there ANY chance the "off the air" minis make another appearance?

Over the next couple weeks those Skywatchers are heading to Tone Factor in LA, Prymaxe in NJ, VintageGitar in Norway, Joe's Pedals in England, Moog Audio in ON and QC... that's our next few shipments at least, I'm not sure after that. You guys can always get pedals direct from me though if you ever want one!

As for the 'off the air' finish coming back ever... no! We did those 25 special ones sort of out of panic.. we were in a tough financial spot and needed to do something to get a bill paid so we'd be able to continue with the mini-RRR manufacturing. We decided it would be worth it to work like dogs and do something special by hand... they take Tanya a really unreasonable amount of time and are just too tough/time consuming, she's got no interest at all in making more. And they're too many layers to have screen printed, to do 8 colours or whatever you'd need for that finish would be a small fortune but also really really difficult for the printers to do perfectly.

I think we've seen at least one of those off the air minis sell in the b/s/t forum here in the last 6 months or so... there's 25 out there... if you want I could give you the address of everybody who bought one and you could go to their house and try to 'talk' them into parting with theirs.

There's probably about a dozen full size off the airberators out there too...

That's Knockaround Guys. I think it came out in '00. I've heard that he's doing another XXX. No, not a porno, the "new age" badass James Bond type agent xXx. :p

OH! And another Fast & Furious.

I love my Big Box Off The Airberator! Actually the first Dr. Scientist I ever laid eyes on while browsing the Analogue Haven site one day. Of course it was sold out long before I saw it, but fate was on my side with that one! I's a pedal I will truly never get rid of. People consistently compliment that one, more than any pedal I've ever owned and the sound is just glorious. Can't thank Tanya and Ryan enough for that one!

Anyone who got one of the minis in that finish should thank their lucky stars.
