Zvex Custom Shop Pedals

If you are a BIG Zvex fan, Humbucker Music has Zvex Custom Shop inventory.

I was checking out some of the custom graphic Wolly Mammoth's. Very cool looking, but, $350.00ish USD, OUCH!!

Here's a link in you're interested.

For some reason, the green skelly, space planet, and the creeping blue/green look awesome to me:

And that's exactly what you are paying for, the pain job. Save $300 and build a clone that you can paint yourself.

That would be the Woolly Mammoth. A really neat bass fuzz with a slight gate. I really enjoy mine.

They are all just different paint jobs

it seems like Zach knows that people are buying more mammoths off the used market for 200-275 and he needs to step up his game and put out more "custom" finishes so that he can pump out more volumes of mammoths. good for him. i like the finishes a bunch. i like the mcgrath one the best.

If he ever did a Vexter Mammoth, I'd be first in line for one.

The paint job actually dissuades me from purchasing one since I'll be stomping it and eventually scuff off some of the paint. That being said, these are certainly works of art.

"Blue Skelly" is sweet, but I'd prefer Woolly to be plain and powder coated. And 50% cheaper.

Yes. Same circuitry, same components, same box, different paintjob

You're right, but, that's the same reason I would buy one of these before I would buy a standard mammoth paint job.

Agreed. I shouldn't have used "paint job" in my post because these pedals are hand painted and pieces of artwork.

I have an American Flag Fuzz Factory myself
