Also the nicest pedal builder I've ever met & the only guy i'd lend any of my gear at any time.



not effect pedals, but utility pedals made by http://this1smyne.com/pedals.html are essential
affordable blender pedals
affordable flip floppers
affordable mini buffers... everything is build quality. and he'll custom build anything you ask.

I used to live in Kyoto, so I knew the Sobbat guy, Kaz. Obsessive Strat collector and fantastic guitar player too. Nice guy, cool pedals.

Here's another couple
Not sure how well known this is, but it's one of my favourite fuzzes. Pretty rare though.
Sam Ash Fuzzz Boxx / Astrotone Fuzz

How about Guild Foxey Ladies?

I think I was actually talking to the guy I bought my amp from about both these pedals. Weird. He really liked/recommended the Foxey Lady.

Hmm...The guy I bought it from was named Kaz...and he was Japanese...and he was selling it for super cheap... :wow what a fantastic idea you have there:

NewarkWilder wrote:so the sobbat is good ehh? i've almost picked one of their pedals up a couple times. gotta love those graphics.

I really like it. It's super high gain, but super smooth. Plays nice with other pedals, and is an absolute whore with modulation. Aaaand it make the Shoegazer you sold me sound like straight up white noise. :love:
I've been trying to find more of their stuff for cheap (I was spoiled by the deal I got on mine), but alas they're always $150+...

The whole range is here. They ship abroad, but Japanese prices aren't cheap to begin with.

I'll see if I can find a picture, but at Warped Tour '98, Eric Melvin of NOFX had a giant pedal called The Melvinator. I was instantly jealous...

People have heard of it, but it isn't exactly common. Sounds terrible alone, but absolutely KILLS BUGS DEAD in a mix. Amazing pedal. I should have kept the original, but eh, they sound identical and I was broke at the time. It happens.

Are they good? Dammit, I almost bought their Fender Blender clone a while back...


Here's another couple of pretty unusual pedals

v1 Bad Stone -- I've seen lots of v2s and v2s in the same mummy face box, but not many of these
PNP Ram's Head Big Muff w/ 2N5087s -- not many of these around, most are NPN FS36999/2N5133 (early) or BC239C (later)
