Fuzzrocious Club - Sextuplet

Or maybe even a rack mount version with more tonal options.......

Rack units = $$$$$$

What we've noticed is that the more we charge for a pedal, the worse it sells (Terrordactyl v1 and v2; Heliotropic).

If people were apesh*t over our Rat Tail rack unit we made for Caleb Scofield of Cave In/Old Man Gloom/Zozobra, we would've done more!
 
Do y'all have a portfolio of all the weird, custom things that you've put out? Can we see/post them on your website for future hey-I-could-have-this-custom-thing-made-because-I-just-won-the-lottery/have-no-monetary-self-control purchases?

However, I understand that some musicians are very hush hush about their stuff.

Yeah could totally see why you wouldn't delve into certain things on the regular. But ^this^ would be a cool thing to see. If I had a dispensable income, I probably would've put in some crazy requests by now.

That's a shame because the heliotropic rules and I'm trying to decide between getting an eventide h9 or a terrordactyl as my next pedal.

We haven't charted/cataloged them :(.
We do post 90% of them on FB/IG/Twitter though!
 
Thought I would show off my pedals from Ryan and the Ratajski family.

Haven't had a chance to dig into the Demon yet.
The K-Drive is a fantastic pedal, which has probably seen more use than any other pedal I own. Sometimes I wonder if I would have preferred getting one with a mid-bump, but this one is money.
I'm really digging the BDPG, it took me some getting used to, haven't quite got it dialed yet, but I really dig it. It has replaced my now dead Submarine, and the Black Arts Revelation that I was using for a while.
The DD is a big sounding pedal, I think I need to crack it open again and dial it a bit more, I think I have the low-end cranked inside, and the gain dialed back a fair amount.
The Rat Tail I bought used off here a year or so back it's fantastic. I've just fiddle with the knobs, not quite sure I understand what they do, except for the volume and distortion. I don't think I've ever had it set up the same way twice, and it's never sounded bad.

Smugglers of what?

I think I know the answer and I couldn't care less about dopeheads' smuggling capacity. I do care about wasted space on my pedalboard.

Seems like you are the only person that is bothered by this, because you've brought this up before...? Let Ryan build his pedals the amazing way he does and YOU put something in the wasted space!

Anyways I've got a demon king coming and I'm really excited about it! Should be here on Monday.
 
Now that I put it in my highpass loop to get the gain up without the distortion you can pry it from my cold dead fingers but rehousing it is too much effort.

It seems like wasted space for no reason. If there is a reason I'm all ears. Probably Ryan got a killer deal on the bigger boxes and took advantage.

It's a pet peave of mine when small circuits occupy big boxes. Too bad for the internet bandwidth. If you let Ryan speak for himself less will get wasted.
