Or if they've been in the hot hands of GREMLINS. Mysterious fuzz gremlins, like BriHam's little elven troops, or something.

Sucks dealing with a3rd party for this. Maybe Brian will do a special ILF run for these to make up for their (topspin) mess. ;)

Haha, that description, perfect!

Now all I can see when I look at it are little buttholes, everywhere. :no:

Mine showed up last night. I was nervous as hell unwrapping it after reading Holy Schnikes story. No bubblewrap issues on mine.
The box they used for shipping was way oversized. Shit was just bouncing around inside. Luckily everything survived.

I cracked it open before even plugging it in. Pretty stoked to see I got #1 :!!!:

Only had a little bit of time to play through it, but it's a very cool pedal. Lots of cool sounds in it. I'm gonna need to make notes of settings so I can find them again. :wha?:

anyone having weird finish issues - i will resolve them one way or another. y'all know my word is good, i think...
there were plenty of super sucky fuckups related to this; some of which were topspin's fault, some of which weren't. it's been really tough to have to just sit back and watch it unravel without having any control... ugh

for now though... let's keep it positive!

Yea, this had me worried too, just tossed the pedal in a GIGANTIC box. It survived though, probably from all that bubble wrap. :lol:

Word. No worries as your pedals and customer service have always been top notch. That really goes for every ILF builder, just good bunch of dudes/dudettes knocking out some really awesome stuff.

My main goal is to simply warn others when unpacking, just incase they should run into the same issue...

sigh. no arrival yesterday, halfway through the delivery window for today, no response to my last two emails. there's a dooder that HAS been answering, but everytime it's been "it'll go out XXX', then "it'll ACTUALLY go out XXX". last response was "they can't find your order in the system" and nothing since.

good times.
