Ooooops!

Post by braaandooon »

So I like to collect things with typos and other odd mistakes. Some of these items I own range from baseball cards, comics, and even handblown glass.

Anyways, there was a thread over at HCFX a few years back where Digitechrep mentioned that there are maybe fifteen max DOD fx100's floating around with a typo and they are the epitome of rare. After a few years of viewing hundreds of these fx100's I finally aquired one with the typo.

I guess what I'm wondering is if there are any other gear related items with typos or mistakes you guys might be able to help me become aware of?

Also, my new DOD Fx100 Inte"r"grated tube overdrive...

Chank with the mini game of "Where's Waldo?" Lmao, had to look at that one for a minute, but I see the mistake.

Is there a bunch of those? Or is the mistake limited to a small run?

They've corrected it now. I think it was only the first run. Don't know how large a run it was. With a company like Empress, I'd imagine it was of a decent size.

Notice almost all the stock photos of the empress delay contain the error, but none the less I'll look out for used ones.

The FX100 actually sounds pretty good. Its a mosfet distortion, supposedly the new DOD gunslinger may share some lineage with it. The footswitch on my ole' rat is on its last leg, but the DOD is grindy enough to fill in.

Ha, should be Britons, no?

That always bugged me about that pedal. I always imagined Menatone did it on purpose though, due to potentially dim Americans asking "Britons? Is that spelled right?"

The first run of the Prophecysound Systems Pi-Phase had a typo as well: Prophecysound Sytems. That's cruel when the typo is in your brand name.

The boss feedbacker distortion count? They had to rearrange the wording due to conflict with another company.

I used to have one of the Blakemore early run Dues Ex Machina fuzzes. That was a fun pedal.
