They won't let me add it to the basket so I wonder. I am going to e-mail them and Bjorn himself and find out once and for all. Stay tuned....

The BJF Forum says that the Blueberry was still being made as of April 07. That's the latest info on their site.
I think I posted this in the other thread talking about it recently, but my understanding is they are still made, but that Bjorn does them in smaller and less regular batches than the other stuff. Harri at custom sounds ought to have an answer for you, but when I ordered mine from them there was about a 6-8 week wait time. (it arrived about last august, and they didn't really sound like there were plans to discontinue it when I asked). When I ordered, it was email to order, so I don't htink that not being able to add to the cart is a bad sign.
But Harri's been really helpful with all the email's I've sent, and anything I've ordered from him got to me in like 6 business days.

Agreed. Such another pedal may exist, but I know not what it is.
The only thing a Blue Berry compares to is a raging tube amp. I've done the comparison multiple times. The Blue Berry even sags like a big ol' pair o' power tubes gettin' nasty. Ridiculous.
I'm not talking about preamp tube distortion, I speak of power amp tubes, the real cheese. Preamp tube distortion is for pikers.

It is the bomb! I can get a light OD if I turn the BB drive WAY down. The tone know is great too. This is the best pure OD on the market for bass. I had to sell my first born to get one.

The Screwdriver is a treble-boost and a fuzz. The Blueberry is a bass-boost and an overdrive.
THis is killing me.
Several months ago I had a trade offer on an older scratched up Blueberry for an extra T Rex Fuel Tank I had -- and I didn't take it.
Soooo stooopid.

In my defense, it was in pretty rough shape, and I was unawares they were so rare.
but still: You can't fix Stoooopid.

That's the same one that I tried to buy. I told the guy I'd take it and than he sold it out from under me....I'm still mad about it.
Let's all pool together and try to order a whole batch from the maker. Anybody know how to make contact? The web site was more of a forum.
My friend works in a custom shop here in Helsinki. Talked with him yesterday and he said that usually they have a 3-4 weeks delivery time. I think Custom shop is somekind of "official" worldwide distributor to BJF(?). Here is link: Invalid Link Removed
