So that's what Paul Cochrane and the guys look like! Interesting stuff and factoidalz.

Funny thing, I just spotted my old chin fuzz friend Johnny @ 1:26 on clip #2 where they talk about NAMM. He produced Guitar Hero 1 and 2 and just happened to walk by the camera at the right time..Imagine that.

OK this is an awesome documentary, and check this out. They interviewed that DiscoFreq guy with the awesome effects database, and just out of curiousity checked out to see if I'm on his page, and:

How awesome is that? No details about pedals or anything but that's pretty fucking cool - considering I just make these things in my spare time and mostly for you guys, this is a pretty special thing to be noticed

Definitely must feel pretty damn good to be included amongst their ranks.
Another proud SS.org moment.

Hi :mrgreen:

I added you as a brand, but probably didn't have the time to add the pedals when I found them. The empty brand pages are in my "to do" list :)

Hi! Nice to have you on the board! Cheers for the add, much appreciated. Let me know if you need any info/pictures of pedals and stuff, I'd be happy to oblige.

Your website is a great resource, I love that you can find old schematics for deleted pedals there aswell as seeing pictures of the rare stuff that isn't around anywhere else. Nice work on the documentary appearance too!

Your message reminded me that I didn't watch the whole documentary yet (too busy when I received it), so I did now :)


If you have some more pictures that would be great, for some models there are no pictures on the site yet.

I'll add your pedals now. As I said, the brands I discover on a busy day get in the "to do" list, but there's usually too much work on other days as well (other new brands) to start working on that list ;)

Cool, I'll drop you a PM with some links to pictures. My website is woefully out of date since the guy who set it up for me has been very busy with his own business and hasn't been able to update anything.
