... or he could just work for another pedal company instead. I want to see one of the DeMarco brothers, with their shit hair and cod eyes, demonstrate the Atomic Cock pedal:

Urgh

The colours
The styling
The funny for less than a second car themed names
The "circuits on show"

Everything screams urgh. Nothing new to add so just over style the shit out of some standard pedal ideas
How Terribly Rock N Roll

The 'novelty names' thing is starting to get old for me now. They can sell it in a blank enclosure and give it a number instead of a name for all I care; as long as it sounds interesting/useful and is affordable, I'm interested.

That's one reason why I like the Visual Sound Garage Tone pedals better. Basic, simple boxes, no fancy window gimmick, the only thing that could reall be considered gimmicky is the names, but fuck it, it's got the regular name in biggish letters. They're cheap and sound good too.

Although I do kinda like the fuzz and delay pedals, if only they didn't have the butt ugly cases.

The new Vox pedals seem to retail at £160. Good luck with that, Korg.

Just from looking at the pics before seeing the vid, I thought these had a tube in them. Now I know it's just a window to see the circuit board, stupid idea.

No, I'm pretty sure the boost, OD, and distortion have tubes, from what I've read. They just didn't bother to make different cases for the delay and fuzz, so their excuse is that it's a "circuit window".
