Hmmm, I don't think the symmetry suits it. Hope that's just a mule.

It's a Klone.

Was curious why it wasn't in a smaller enclosure when I opened it up. This makes more sense.

hmmm, what we gain in skinniness, we lose in side jacks
so its a 2 or 3 way tone? no cut, slight cut, big cut?

^ There's no info yet.
Remember the first pic for Unpleasant Surprise:
So that might not be the final layout.

Yeah, the caption said it's just a mock up.
Incidentally, I like that mock up of the Unpleasant Surprise better than the way it ended up being laid out (, but that's probably just me).

Only the jack were relocated. Everything else was the same. I was expecting to keep a similar layout to the unpleasant surprise but whatever. The pedal still works and the style is still there.

I don't mind the layout at all (I think it looks good). Top mounted jacks would be nice but no biggie

I like it too.
Hope the tone switch has some "broken" tone to it.

It'S definitely not just you, I'm also having trouble with those horizontally oriented little pedals
the delay sounds really really awesome to me

I didn't like them till I took a good look at Behndy's board. They're really good for the "odd" tier on a pt pro. Or you can have one above the other and get two awesome pedals on your board in roughly the same size as a 1590BB.

More horizontal pedals need knobs on sides so you can put them anywhere without having to worry about kicking your knobs and fucking up your sound

Emailed Guillaume about the delay recently and he responded with a quick update. They're aiming for a late April release, pre-order discount will be in effect (though price has yet to be announced), and pre-order isn't too far off...
