Pedal builder

toothguy · #1 10-13-2011, 12:19 PM

I know what I want but I have no knowledge of how to build it. How do I find a pedal builder who might be able to help me? Thanks in advance.

You track down the web sites of as many builders as you can, see if their web site mentions custom builds, then ask them.

What do you want? We may be able to point you in a more appropriate direction if we know this information.

+1 to what dan said...more info needed!

I'd be willing to bet that what you want already exists, and if not then there's a good reason why.

I want a pedal that does what the TWA Great Divide is reputed to do.

And the reason you are not buying a TWA Great Divide is...

Let me guess. You think if you have somebody make it for you it will be cheaper. Amirite?

I want a MIDI-controllable version of the EHX Freeze, but it doesn't exist. The reason it doesn't is because pedal builders are MEANIES!

Dazonbass · #12 10-13-2011, 07:17 PM

I want every pedal midi controlled... damn those blue Meanies.

toothguy · #13 10-13-2011, 07:21 PM

I don't mind the $499.00 price tag, but they are not building them! I'd like to find someone who will.

Is mind control an option????

OK, I was wrong! Sorry about that. My snarky responses were because (a) you gave us zero info to work with, and (b) most people who post "can somebody custom-build me a pedal" are kids who don't know much about what's out there and who want to pay $50 for a $300 pedal.

It is very odd that you PM'ed me such a lengthy and detailed explanation, but did not put all that info in your posts here.

At any rate, now we know that you have tried to order that one pedal and it is not available at anything approaching their regular price--so you are looking for alternatives. Great! Now we can actually dig into the collective knowledge base and help you.

I still haven't a stutter delay pedal.

But I think such a pedal is of limited use to most people.

In re that and Brian's MIDI Freeze, I did not mean my comment in such a general sense, that "everything already exists or shouldn't". I only meant it for the person I incorrectly thought I was addressing: a kid who did not know what was actually available.

My snarky responses are because I like House.

No, your snarky responses are because you have Lupus.
