Especially their micro series, but even their 70s stuff. I have honestly never played a bad Guyatone pedal and often they flat out shred.
The mini OD-2 is my fave overdrive, or at least my favorite screamer. The mids are perfect, it sounds good, and it only has two knobs. Plus it was cheap.

I also had an 80s NADY distortion that looked like a re-labelled Guyatone. It had a kinda SD-9 type sound with a crunch knob. It also sounded awesome.

Who are you trying to convince? Us or yourself?
Do you need a hug? WTF, man.

Nora needs more than a hug. He needs some fuzz. I mean, have you listened to any of his videos lately? :whoa:

It's the same exact joke my girlfriend says to me anytime I tell her I'm a nice guy. If you have no sense of humor, that's on you.

Fuzz seems like an effect people use to mask their sloppy playing. I like to accentuate my sloppy playing; it is actually a core component of what I do, which is why I am migrating to a cleaner sound overall.

Quite frankly I don't understand why, they had the dudes from Sonic Youth buying their pedals and Annie Clark gave me a major GAS for the tapeworm delay which I am still searching for.

Goodnight sweet prince.
Most if not all their pedals were GGG kits.

Yeah that was the guy behind the Submarine (his companies had a couple of names).

WHERE THE FUCK DID YOU GET THIS INFO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thought analogue haven just had ''older" stuff as usual....and a bunch of cloudbusters didnt make it?! dang I got the second to last one before they went poof on a.h. ...king skychord punishment fanboy here....remember asking Stephen a yr ago if the projects dead, and he mysteriously said "dead or alive" and sent me a cheesy techno song named dead or alive lol
My logic, I think, was that King Capitol Punishment stuff remained in stock/returned to stock at dealers after Skychord vanished (this is still the case, fyi). Love the company, really enjoyed my Desi Parva when I had it.

Been surprised Fromel hasn't blown up like many other of the builders from the same "era". Or am I just missing out on everything?
Yes they are. He just doesn't do finishes like he used to. I talked to John on the phone last year sometime and he seemed busier than ever.
That's good to hear. I remember him being super nice to deal with, so cool that its still going.
I still want one of his Dimension C Seraph guys. Wonder if he'd still make one... they're not listed on his site. Might have to email...

I remember reading something like this.
I'm curious what the tapeworm is, though. :?:

I took a Brownies & Cream in trade for something long ago and it was a BSIAB2 on a GGG board but built absolutely terribly. I actually cant imagine building pedals the way this one was built because it would take twice as long as building the same pedal with neat lead dress. Then I looked at the rest of the line and it was obvious that all the circuits were basic products that had been around in the DIY community for years.
