That IS really nice. Even if you do say so yourself.

Luv the stamped and riveted stuff.

Like the labels, is that done with a punch?

each letter is hand hammered with letter punches that come in a set.

well, it went to a four knob version for more options and had switchable synth and true bypass overdrive loveliness. it took around 7 hours to build each one and i got really overwhelmed with all of the orders that came in. people started getting ticked off because of the wait... it's all point to point hardwired.

in the mean time i started developing a full line of totally mechanical guitar effects and have been so busy recording that i just can't keep up. i also have happened upon a design for the clearest wonderful boost, and have decided that i may just market it, instead of a boost, overdrive, synth/od, and a fuzz, and other custom ordered pedals. i think i may just sell them as i build them and not take in any orders any more.... it just got to be way too much...

plus, i probably run one of the busiest studios in louisiana. i have 13 projects running at one time right now, and am in the process of mixing 3 full length albums right now and am taking on 2 more projects in january and february. just got too many irons in the fire. :roll:

sorry to vent my problems (which they are good problems to have, but not for the pedal business)

you asked :)

why not hire some solder monkeys?
if I still lived down there I'd be down with it.
Except I have an allergy to anyplace outside of Orleans parish or St Charles parish.

Yeah, I know.
The only reason I was able to grab a shot of this one was because it wasn't moving. All the antiqued hardtail tele versions flew off the wall.:wink:
( guy who bought this had it repainted George Lynch tiger stripes almost immediately.. )

well, i had thought about that, but there wasn't enough money there to justify it...

I love me a drum machine with fake wood pannels:

This Axxe is a different version from mine. Mine has the white, soft-rubber pitch-"diddler" instead of the pitch-knob seen in the pix. Again with the sweet press-board panels:
