I think that lone wolf dude should take the rest of 2019 to learn how to drill holes in a straight line. The knob placement on some of the pedals he has built looks like a toddler drilled em.

The new stuff from LWA looks like he's getting into modulations and delays, with 80s "Tron" type graphics. In other words, he's starting to abandon his core brand identity, or whatever you call it.
I wonder if they're making a RE-20 Waza?
Apparently, they build this stuff in a wood shop.

I think they’re doing a major throwback to discontinued stuff

Fuck RE-20 reissue. Give us a real tape echo. Hahaha.
Also.
LWA just seems like hot garbage. I'm sure the success of the LHW is what caused Boss to reissue a pedal that they've watched people spend a bunch of money on in the secondary market, that a ton of builders have cloned or done variants of, and that people have straight up asked for Boss to reissue. Surely one dude making pedals in his apartment has made SOOOOO many pedals that Boss decided they should reissue it.
Fuck, dudes. LWA must be rolling in fucking wads of cash if he's able to influence the almighty Roland Corporation.

. . . ? Lack of units and punctuation make me confused. High school chem still sticks with me, with the teacher’s rant that a number without the units that it is of (grams, mL, degrees C, etc.) is incomplete as an answer.
In context, certainly not 15000 HM-2 clones. Can’t be that many in the wild or you would notice them around.
So I’m guessing 15000 back alley hand jobs? I would believe that.

No. He builds one every 2.19 minutes. This unit of measurement has been known to be called a Joe.

But really, it's inevitable. Ze market is oversaturated with HM-2 insanity peppers. Still holding out for one of these tho:
We need more pedals reissued with handles, anyway.

My local guitar shop has one of these that's apparently fully working. Might have to give it a try some day.

Seems like they are just doing a new digital pedal series:

So apparently there's NO new HM-2 ...

Man. Boss is absolutely savage.
“Boss is reissuing the HM-2 because of the LHW.”

The savagery of how this thread played out in regards to the LHW will age like a fine wine.
