Mike's Pedal Thread

Post by **Mike** » Sun May 16, 2010 9:01 pm

Seriously it's no problem at all! I would much prefer people bought the second hand ones as it keeps them in the family and helps out those that want to sell them. I don't see this as a business really, particularly where shortscale is concerned. I would rather just see people happy. As regards busyness, i'm quite hyperactive so channelling it into creativity and exercise is like therapy for me. I love feeling this way.

I did know about the used Green Muffs, but I would want the mods for the Green Muff or I probably wouldn't be interested. I have played NYC Big muffs and I want to be able to tweek the mids and the cool toggley that Dot's Green Muff had. If I can sell my Polychorus, then I would be in business.

nah Mike, you selling skills are spot on with what i highlighted. I might have to consider the tonebender once I've sold a few things to pay for the Jag.

especially if it gets the same reaction as this

haha.. I think some of that is clearly the player...

Busy again this sunday. I have now got my order list down to two pedals though, which I drilled and painted today.
Plus I replaced the board in Reece's DLS that had been troubling him.

They look awesome, as usual!

Mike, I think i remember reading in the classifieds that you are interested in a silverface fender amp? Well, I saw this and thought it might be worth posting:

Thanks - and thanks for the text, benecol. I've sent a reply and we'll see what happens!

HURRAH!

And dibs if you ever sell it if you buy it.

No reply as yet, I presume he's been bombarded with mails.

I gotta stop building pedals for randoms without taking deposits. That guy I made a Klon for (a couple of pages back) hasn't replied to my emails saying it's done and asking for payment/shipping info and it's been over a week now - am I being impatient or is he trying to skip out on the deal?

gah. It's a Â£100 pedal FFS.

Given its the start of holiday season i would give it a few more days before selling it on. But I think deposits are a good idea, especially for randoms

True enough, I'll give him another week or so and see if he's replied after the bank holiday.

I think I'm going to have to start taking deposits if any of these are true:

- It's a random
- Custom graphics of any sort
- Pedal cost is over Â£60

which is a shame as I hate handling money before I have finished the pedal to my satisfaction.

Princeton is still for sale, but in Plymouth unfortunately - for some reason thought it was in London. I'll see if he's for shipping it.

Last few builds, lost my phone cable for a while

I've been playing the OCD a lot recently... the other pedals on the board are getting jealous.

Out of curiosity, how many pedals d'you reckon you've made at this point?
