How do we feel about them?
They look rock solid, and the expression feature is neat. The drive sounds cool, but the rest sound kinda standard to me.They also seem kinda pricy?

The Drive looks a little purple in some photos?
Oh, and they're assembled in Port Jefferson, NY.

I'm hoping we get some in at work soon. Expression controlled gain is sick but I'm wondering if they actually sound anything like the new Supro's. (Which are fantastic btw if anyone needs a low wattage combo)

Pls consider posting a link next time you make a thread like this.
Just watched the videos. They sound good, I bet they're good for a touring board.
But the Fuzz pedal's EXP jack controlling the Treble knob? ....................why?

"allowing the musician to accentuate or tame the abundant high frequency content of the fuzz sound"

There's very, very, very small transformers.
They're not all something like the size of big iron 100w tube amp head's output transformer.

Not much interest in the pedz. Very much interest in the amps.

Those new-ish Bogner pedals have Rupert Neve transformers in 'em. A lot of other pedals have transformers in 'em too.

They sound cool. I dig em. The bold setting on the drive sounds like a cranked Champ

The drive sounds like a better fuzz than the fuzz.

Ya chank, I chuckled at that justification.
I would have posted a Cosby meme but they've kinda taken on new meaning...
And I'd just as soon opt for the Drive pedal instead...but I'd sooner opt for another Elements
