Mike's Pedal Thread
Moderated By: mods
will dew next time i'm home . the total cost with this repair isn't much less than it would be new but i'd rather the money go to the shop (who are almost suspiciously helpful) and you than some random ebay seller.
i asked to open it up in the shop to make sure there wasn't any of that nastiness fran had. hadn't the switch gone through the PCB or something?

and i've just realised in my haste to get a look at the pedal i've bought electric strings rather than acoustic. fuck sakes, i don't play 11s and even if i tried to put these on acoustic they'd be way too thin for open c and the like. i really wanted to get fresh strings on it today, proper annoyed.
wouldn't happen to be in need of any roto reds would yeh? heh.

Well for international orders it's pretty much paypal only I'm afraid, and you'll have to cover their fees (or add 3% if your account doesn't give you the option to do so automatically). The Salt Shaker Tremolo is £85, plus £5 P&P to the US. The good news is that if you were interested I could sell you mine which is mint and just build myself another one.

Miek, have you ever made a millenium bypass circuit? It's apparently thing where you can make true-bypass using DPDT switch. This looks best/simplest version of the circuit I've seen so far:

Was thinking of using something like this in future, if it works well. Those Alpha dpdt switches feel really nice to use, and are couple quid cheaper than 3pdt stompers.

hahah you CAPITALIST.
I liked the Frederic Effects better before they changed from being true true TRU bypass
I've not had a play with it to be honest, but modern ZVex pedals use that for example, even though they use a 3DPT *facepalm* with one of the poles unused. Y'know why? Because chinese slave kids are paid by the wire...
