An hard to find bad solder.
Things could happen... but the services compared to Ryan or Tom was crap.
ILF builder are the best!

Edit: And 45$ for the shipping... I normaly pay 16$ form other builder in the USA.

So a cold solder joint? That's weird. Easy fix at least.

I agree with Tom and Ryan, but don't forget Brian!!! :)

Haven't had an issue yet and I just bought my third pedal from him!

He's honest when he's kind of swamped and tells me it'll take a bit longer.
The first pedal I got from him he had it done and ready and it came to me within 2 weeks from what I remember.
He always answers me too!

That sucks about the Ruckus. For sure. At least she's working again!
The shipping is expensive.. Kind of sucks.
Oh well, I like his stuff a lot.

Next on my list is the Heavy Machine I think, or the Decomposer.

Just got an email from Alan talking about changing the size of all of his pedals..

"I also have been working on a issue with the enclosures I've been using for the LSD. The company that I order my enclosures from can only powder coat that size enclosure with textured finishes. I won't go into exactly why this is but it's made me decide to start building all my pedals into the same size enclosure as the P.O. Box."

I have an order in for an LSD. Excited to see the result in the new sized enclosure because I like the size of my PO BOX but I was excited to get the 2nd version LSD enclosure. Had my board all planned out for it. Damn.

Bad idea. Keep the Mountain, buy a Behemoth II and have both. :)

Anyone know where Demon666's Mountainking Trem/Ring Mod went off to?
I asked him about buying it and he said he needed to track er' down.

He took off a few pedals.. Max OD, Huge Box I, Synapse, Rollback, P.O. BOX, Ruckus I...
he posted a picture of the updated Magnetar in the smaller enclosure... looks pretty sweet.

That's my Magnetar :) literally. It came out looking great! I also have a Heavy Machine in the same size and a Behmoth II on the way. Only the Magnetar (along with the Megalith) is getting the silk screen though, I think. nightterrors, you have the LSD with the freq toggle? How do you like it on bass? My curiousity is piqued!

Also I don't think Alan is discontinuing the Huge Box, not sure about the others he pulled.

I spoke with him recently about the Huge Box and the Heavy Machine, he said both have updated circuits with a gain boost toggle, and a distortion level control. With my hot pickups the gain toggle isn't very useful but the distortion level control is :love:
