No other info on the official EHX site at the moment, though

A perfect world would have seen this circuit being made by Boss instead of that Waza amp thing

I'm so used to everything being abbreviated on the forums when I saw this title I was like "what the fuck does MIG stand for!? is there a vintage EHX pedal I haven't heard of?"
Pretty cool though!

Any detail on the build quality or origin? I keeping kicking myself for not buying an original one new--it was stunningly good.

I literally saw one of these on my trip to NYC and I was all "lol sum1 put an EHX thing on here" and they were all "nah it's brand-fuckin'-new"
It had the made in USA thing on it, so big box EHX reliability is a guarantee!

The guitarist during my short-lived experience in a high school Death Metal band used to play a Boss HM-2 into the original production version of this amp with a matching cab back in the early 90's. I'd imagine these would be incredibly fuzz friendly and loud as balls, which precludes me from ownership given current nomadic apartment life. Poo.

I actually ran into my old guitarist the other day. He still has his MIG50.

the MIG-50 is okay. the originals were all over the place and need a lot to keep running at their current age. maybe with these ones all the controls will actually do something. all regardless of if you trust EHX's QC or not.

A buddy of mine has one of the originals, but he hasn't used it in years. Someone stole the fuse holders at a show one night.

I still have my MIG 100h! Same thing happened to me, but at my practice space.
Someday I will replace them (I have all the parts, just haven't done it because I thought maybe I should just replace the pots and caps while I'm at it). Hasn't been turned on since 2007.
