Someone around here has a Menatone Mail Bomb Envelope Filter. I would absolutely LOVE to get my hands on one of those!

As a company in general, they are a typical, small-run boutique effects builder with great quality, clever designs and fantastic sounding pedals.

I have a King of the Britains. It's downright awesome for guitar but I've never tried it with bass.

Cool, I was interested in the KOB for some crunchy distortion on bass, the other pedals look cool too.

i have a few of their pedals for my guitar rig, and they're pretty nice. very high quality stuff. but admittedly wish they did some more basscentric stuff.

I've got an older MailBomb, and it's easily my favorite filter of all time. Goes from very subtle to all out synth crazy with only 3 knobs. Tried their ring-mod pedal and was less impressed.
