Yeah. The treble/bass controls are awkward.

I'm ordering a Timmy pedal from Paul Cochrane by the way. At $129 shipped it's still a fantastic deal considering it is handmade and I want to support what he is doing.

Nice one Mike, cool move. I've always wanted one, for nomenclature reasons too, but have never been able to afford it. Can I call dibs if you ever sell it?

If you're willing to pay me DOUBLE MY MONEY then sure.

Ah fuck yes, I forgot the lucrative Timmy flipping market. Ignore me. In other news, my Superfuzz kit just arrived with...

*drumroll*

No Customs Fees!

Have handed it over to my lady-who-can, and should be suitably fuzzy by the end of the week.

Nice one bud. You shall have to report in with details. Do you have any spiffy graphics in line for it?

Benecol Jr. is going to stick loads of polka dot stickers to the casing for me.

I hope you are then going to clearcoat.

So my pedals still haven't arrived despite getting a despatch notice more than a week ago. I do think they haven't sent them because they are out of stock.

Looks like you'll get the "not boutique anymore" modified version.

Pretty much a bugger. Though I'd be surprised it Dano could turn around a new model that quickly.

I'll probably just email them tonight and ask if they have shipped it and if not to refund me. Then I'll get the fuzz off eBay.

I'm kidding. Danelectro are going to to sweet-FA about it and you know it. They'll claim the circuits are different because the op-amp is SMD and the filter caps are a different value.

euan, the guy at sound affects just emailed me this very second. here's what he says-

Hi - sorry for the delay, both in replying and getting your pedal. We were briefly out of stock and then when it did arrive they sent us the wrong ones! Suffice to say we now have them in stock and your will be posted to you in th morning. Kind Regards Tim

maybe he'd marked yours as shipped before he'd actually posted it?

euan · Post by **euan** » Thu Feb 12, 2009 5:52 pm

Seems so.

stewart · Post by **stewart** » Mon Feb 16, 2009 1:58 pm

it finally arrived today, addressed to "s alan (mrs?)" and missing the company name on the address...

i'm surprised i got it at all.

Fuck all for me.
