Yeah, forgot about those. They're really expensive too aren't they? I mean I get that if they sound good maybe they're worth the money to people, but I'd be disappointed to shell out a lot to a builder who couldn't even be bothered to make them look nice. I'd probably rather get a plain enclosure than those, or they could make a silkscreen graphic or something. Just looks like laziness to me. :idk:

Ugh I forgot about those too. Shell out $300 for some shitty craft paint on a tube screamer. Again, I must be doing something wrong

sweet job to all, so much has been covered, all horrid to the eye (but some not so bad)

I would still play every single one of those pedals.

I have a Baby Blue since couple of years (180 EUR back then used). One of the best Pedals i have. It Looks like shit (pretty Beaten already) and if i would sell it now i would get 600+$. That's what i don't understand... :idk:
It is worth 200 EUR to me, but def Not more :whateva:

Yeah I've heard they sound really nice and that's cool, I don't really know what they cost, just think they look a bit shit. If it's worth that for the sound (and 200euro isn't TOO crazy for a great pedal) then whatever, I just personally wouldn't enjoy buying something that looks terrible for so much money. Might do if it if the sound was worth it though.

Unintentional troll win!

Naw, all opinions welcome here. :)

I do offer graphic, printed, painted, and one-off finishes of each model...plus custom graphics, choice of any knobs under the sun, and any knob placement, or jack placement, by request.

Way to be sexist AND diss your own product in your advertisement. :facepalm:

I can never understand these comapnies that acknowledge that their product looks stupid in their own ads (Gibson did this with their Marauder). If you have to do that, how about considering...redesigning your product.
