One that I'll be a transphobic, racist, self-loathing misogynist of a bastard by that world's standards.
I loved the old Devi products, even with their flaws. I loved what Charlotte was trying to do around the time it all fell apart - some of my favorite personal pedals are from that era.
But there's no going back from the Kickstarter debacle at this point. There just isn't.
I don't do Kickstarters for *Anybody*, let alone for that dollar figure without a solid solid solid record of delivering. $10-20? Sure, #yolo. $300+? Nope.
But the stuff I loved is out of production, and I'm ok with that. I have the schematics (for which I am genuinely grateful to Devi for making available to everybody), I have the originals to clone exact versions from if I desire, etc.
I've moved on, trying to draw a line between some things i love and the problems surrounding the name and legacy. I guess that makes me an ungrateful, hateful sonofabitch.
