The jacks on these pedals are all Neutrik jacks were are not cheap. If they're not working I will be happy to take a look but I would check the basics first and see if they've rotated and are shorting on anything.

My favourite pedal! Saltbooster Plus!
The LED is blue, but the camera cant do that.
If it wasn't for this pedal I would probably have changed my pickups for some things with a higher output.
That is a great shot mate.

Aye, it's one for your website, if you ever get round to making one.

Could do that I expect - depends what you need. I Can't do swishy flash stuff but if you want a decent functioning site I'm capable and you'd need to supply the pics and content required. if it's a site to make purchases on then that functionality is something I need to investigate for myself (just be aware that you'll need to register as a business after a year of trading). I'd be happy to do it for trades on some salty goodness....I'll sign on the dotted line too if you can make one of
these!.

A Harmonic Energizer? Can yuo get a schematic?
I'm unsure about a website at the moment, I'll let you know if I feel I need one though, at the moment I'm happy with the gentle drip-drop of orders.

top left dwarfcraft tgd, bottom right mike's tiny saltboost, those two are shortscale built
but gotta note that two of the three behringers (delay and bass sytnh) were gifts from hurb so that's very shortscale too
..also yesterday i think my onespot adapter crapped out... i plugged it in, it powers all six pedals (through the tuner), it's powered more so that's not it i think, but it just started to make all the leds flash and i hear this plop plop plop ..so ..not working

Speaking of Shortscaler pedals... I was trying to dial in my "perfect" tone with that Blender that Mike made me.
That pedal is absolutely bonkers, like multiple personality bonkers. Just when you think you're getting close you realized you've gone too far. I'll probably be beating that thing into shape for the rest of the month.
Granted, this is exactly what I was looking for... so cheers Mike!

yeah, blenders are really whack, a slight turn of the knob makes the biggest difference in sound, i've messed around with it a shop (it never gets sold !) and it's the kind of pedal you really have to 'learn' to use it proper and get the sounds you're after also depending on the amp, lots of work lol. that is, of course, if you're talking about the fender blender

Took the board into work with me today, and the tremelo / vibrato got a huge thumbs up from the lads in the guitar shop ... just saying.

Yeah fender blender.
You're very right about the amps too. It's a totally different animal on my Sunn than on my Sovtek. More so than any other pedal I have.
If you ever want to get one, have Mike build it for you. He uses the original spec because the re-issue has a major volume drop. My "By Mike" Has volume for miles.

I think the photographer has a lot to do with that, it's a really great shot. Taken in that lighting, at that angle, I reckon even Aphasiac might look good.
