Broughton Audio Super Thread

Please someone educates me. :help: I am fairly new here so this might be a noob question.:bag:

It looks like that this Broughton guy could put an used toothbrush with a HPF on it on his website and this would sell out in no time.

Question: if the demand for these Broughton products is so high, why producing so few? Is it a marketing strategy or simply lack of capacity?:wideyed:

Someone more knowledgeable than I can answer, but from my memory Josh has another job if I'm not mistaken. He also spends a lot of time in R&D for new products. It's a small operation and increasing product inventory means new designs don't get made.

He actually puts out a lot more pedals than many boutique builders if you ask me. There’s just a lot of demand, his products are great. Surely “Just making more” is not as simple as it seems.

There are 2561 pages of education here. It's worth the full read through.





Short answer though is Bizness :cigar:

This^^^^^ hand made, VERY well, from what I understand he's definitely busy at his "day job" - real quality plus having a knack for catering to bass players is a pretty rare thing
