Mike's Pedal Thread

Can I ask what Hurb's pedal is and what the Red Meat Suite is too? They all look pretty awesome, I just want to buy Mike's pedals now because they look so pretty.

Hurb's pedal is an IC Muff, and the Red Meat Suite (*shrug*) is a Suhr Riot. Whatever one of those is.

hey mike//// whats the nastiest pedal you got? and how much for that jewel?

I like to hear the tubes turn inside out and then eat each other

Probably the Fender Blender for pure filthy horribleness. They go for Â£90.

Just updated the webby sitey.

http://madebymike.co.uk/

A bunch of new stuff went in, so I've probably broken something somewhere. Let me know if you see something amiss.
I just noticed one right away. I typed "Silion" instead of "Silicon" on the fuzz face page. Derp.

That makes sense. I like how everything is broken out by category.

typo-

It's a completely different circuit topology using Op-Amp chips instead of a series of transistors, and it definitely has it's own unique and revolutionary sound.

no apostrophe. TAKE IT OUT NOW OK????!!!

Any typos will be my fault, as Reece had to do the best he could with my knacekered prose. I think the site looks great.

Got one more Fuzz pedal to add, a single knob IC fuzz which sounds pretty great. Need a name for it though. Suggestions?

Another typo on the Silicon Tonebender page:

'The Tonebender is a classic, and rightly so. I've selected the Mark III version to reproduce since it is in my opinion the most flexible version, you can cop Mark II sounds with a bit of tweaking, and the added tone control makes the pedal much more tuneable to your setup than a Mark II, which can be a suck-it-and-see pedal. This is a Silicon version of the Tonebender Mark II pedal I've copied from an original I borrowed from a friend. It's a really great unique sounding fuzz pedal with a chunky bass response - it's a sleeper and wins lots of fans whenever they're introduced to it.'

Shouldn't this be Mark III?

Mike - a friend of mine was asking about a fuzz factory the other day and I said that you might be able to build him a clone, I passed him your details so he may be contacting you - his name is Alwin. I hope this is ok.

Yeah that's all fine Mark, thanks for the recommendation.

And the correction, you're right - it should be MK III.

Reece · Post by **Reece** » Fri Sep 03, 2010 11:07 am

Both fixed.

The new site looks great!

I agree. I went on to get Mike's email address to give to my mate who's interested in a fuzz factory and found it had been updated. It was nice to see that my Tonebender is now famous!
