this is my first "commercial" pedal so far and i'd be pleased if you folks check it out :)

ps: if this kind of "advertising" is not tolerated in here, just tell me. not intending to break any rules :]

Sounds good! Reminds me of the DBA fuzz war. Sort of an OTT yet mellow fuzz. :idk:

Is that $210 US? :eek:

thank you!

i never thought about it that way, but..yes. it's 210 dollar. over here, that seems to be mid-range.
atm, i just don't have the capacities to build as many as i'd like to and therefor make 'em cheaper. hopefully things move on so that can happen (i know it's better to sell ten for 120 than five for 200...).

Sounds good, not my style though. The artwork is very cool though, do you plan to keep the same style with future pedals (if there are any?).

Woah! Those graphics are GREAT! If I lived in Belgium, I'd probably pick one of these up. :thumb:

thanx a lot, i'll forward the flower-package to my friend who did the graphics. guess he'll be doing the next design-jobs as well (since he seems to be bored all day at the advertising agency. lucky me, hehe).

too bad there's this weird ocean in between our continents. digging a tunnel would make transactions much cheaper and easier....

Pretty rad sounding pedal u hav der.

sadly 210$ is a bit much for me... I don't actually have a screamer like this guy on my board, and i don't know why.....
I've got a fuzzbox and i'm not afraid to use it

I like your fuzz! and price overseas is less than 210$ as you don't have to pay VAT... so it's 21% off the price ;) and if it's still a bit expensive ask Crush, it's a cool and friendly guy, I'm pretty sure he will make a good price for you (he knows that it's difficult for people from US and Canada to buy in Europe!)

I should go to Belgium next week, I'm gonna take an appointment to try some fx, I'll try yours!

That thing sounds amazing, and though the $210 USD seems a bit high, I can understand where it's coming from. Can't wait to see what you roll out with next.
Do you like listening to homemade music? Me too. Why don't you try one of mine?

I think I might buy that in a few months just because I love your whole awesome 'Kraut' style.

Also; I've never felt luckier than today for living in Belgium :p

wow :omg:
that was nice, hehe

it actually does sound kinda dangerous on bass guitar (just concluding from your signature).
btw, belgium is a fine country. well, i've only been to brussels once, but that was mighty nice :animal:

I'm in Brussels right now for work.

If you ever get the chance, go to Ghent. I think it's a 1hour drive from Brussels (or 30min by train), but it's a really nice city.
It reently got a price for the Belgian city with most culture. There's also a really cool vinyl record store there :p

Friends of mine are going to Germany this saturday; I was going to go with them but I'm broke :p
