Geez, and people are always riding DBA's ass about high prices. Not a fan of the artwork on these but I'd love to hear 'em in action.

Well you're paying the premium of the artists fees (like the Corrigan fuzzhuggers).
LB's style is love/hate but certainly in demand.

Right, I understand. DBA has some sexy shit though, at least where aesthetics are concerned. The innards, not so much. And Corrigan = :love: :drool: :love: :drool: :love: :drool: :love:

I'm just hoping you're not blowing through the Emperor funds. Priorities Mr. Recall!

pfff I've already got a halloween/panik...that's so 2010.

A replacement fuzz for another certain fuzz I will be selling should arrive today, once that's gone I'm throwing all my cash at emperor.

This only somewhat related, but I cannot stand Skinpimp's usual graphic choices. I know there are like seven "Saw" movies, I don't need to be reminded of it when I want to click on a fuzz pedal. The Bennett ones looks OK though.
Good deals on ILF: too many to list, just ask!

Its probably more to do with the tattoo artist thing and tattoo culture.

Naw I'll be selling one of my pigdogs...awesome mkII's but I don't need 2 of them (though they are a different flavor).

The halloween is a cool little fuzz...I don't give it the love it deserves but that's mostly because I've been on a fuzzrite/tonebender kick.
It's got a surprising amount of clarity...not that it lacks balls, plenty of gain though not quite muff-like.
Some people say it's kinda rat-y. I dunno. You can get a cool overdriven fuzzy kinda tone by rolling back your guitar fiddles volume, then kick it in full on for the heavy.

The Panik is on a whole other level. Future classic this one is.

Going to keep an eye out for the Panik. LB's art is meh to me so a standard graphic will be fine, moreso with the price difference. Halloween fuzz ... cute, but not $300 cute at this point.

Just heard that Stephen @ stepup guitars is getting a small batch of Paniks...probably won't last long.

Stephen is a great guy, I've bought a few things from him before.

Price drop bump! :erm:

Halloween fuzz is at $230 now, Bennett painted Panik at $275 with regular version at $250 (though out of stock).

I really like mine. Got it used though, I wouldn't have spent 300$ on it. It is a very decent weirdo thing though. I am not sure about any Muffy-ness in there, more like a bastard between a Rat and a Fuzz Face.
