If you scroll down the instruments, you'll see a Great Destroyer at EA.
The studio Steve Albini uses these days.

He's used that studio for ages. He built it himself.

Steve Albini, studio caretaker.

"Can I get you boys another cherry pop or perhaps a perc for that overdub?"

Don't blame you Mike. But serial production innit. I'm not gonna miss one pedal that could do my reputation the world of good, the number of people who come through Electrical.

Nah I would totally do the same in your situation, I was only kidding.

Seeing as you produce HP's as a production model in bulk I would do it. To be honest if I lost my job for whatever reason I would probably give the pedal lark a go fulltime and see if I could swing a living on it, and get into things like the different Muff versions and stuff, although it would involve widespread changes in my current work practises. If I'm honest I'm really happy with it as it currently is, an amusing diversion which also helps me make some extra money.

Hi All, This is Steve Albini of Big Black and Shellac fame!!!!!!!!111!!!!! I'm using Dave's Shortscale account because I was so excited to see this thread I didn't have time to set up one of my own. I'll gladly accept any pedals you swell chaps build so please mail them directly to Daves address and he'll bring them over at our next poker and virgin roasting party.

Thanks

Steve "Sphinctre Mouth" Albini
