Has the idea been talked about here before?Yeah it's not super hard to get it from the crop, but I figured it's mysterious enough that you have to know in order to know. I wanted it to be mysterious, but still wanted to leave a solid clue

The Sushi Box FX Secret Society

I'm in the process of figuring out how much they will cost me to make so I can decide how much to sell them for, then I'll decide how many I want to make and order boards. Once I've verified that the design works, I'll announce it officially and open preordering. The Secret Society will of course be the first to know
In the meantime, now is a good time to order Finally for October. I need a new powdercoating gun
Hmm....Paypal no longer an option?
Fine, I'll go ahead and spoil the surprise
It's a hand-wired Space Heater. I was having a talk wioth one of my friends this morning and mentioned how cool it is that people enjoy the Space Heater so much, so figured it would be a good candidate for the hand-wired treatment. It's a simpler circuit than Underground Accelerator, so I should be able to do it for a little less this time.I thought it was, but good question. @Sonicblaze do I still accept paypal? Or is that one of those things you told me to get set up and I said "I'll get around to it"?
Another @Sushi Box FX Home Run out of the park! The Underground Accelerator is all it is advertised to be and more IMHO. The drive section is very versatile just as clean, open and rich as the PA but has a wider sensitivity and depth of saturation, especially when pushed by a boost or other drive pedal. The tone section also benefits from this depth giving a bit more richness and refinement in all settings. The UA has also played well so far with all my test basses and instruments from old school passive to actives and my electric keyboards. Even my vintage Harmony H22B strung as a piccolo seemed to pick up a bit of unknown oomph and sparkle from the UA. I may be tempted to get a second one day but for now my funds are going to a Finally.
I vaguely remember not setting up paypal when we moved the website, so it's on me. I'm working on it now.
Alright, fixed (I think). PayPal should be an option for checkout now, @Sonicblaze should probably take a look and make sure I didn't break anything in the setup process.
Paypal actually increased their fees, so it was purposely not setup via a conversation @Sushi Box FX apparently forgotDang I'm 2 for 2 today on finding website errors
The primary provider now is Stripe, who also supports Apple Pay and Google Pay (so a few more features than Paypal). But hey, nothing wrong with having them both enabled I guess "It's a hand wired Space Heater " - ahh and now the blind can see ! Thanks for the clarification ! ... Kelly
Paypal is run by economic terrorists in disguise ! Much of the current system is designed to get the rich richer and the poor folks pay for the privilege of contributing to their largess - it is what it is and it's not pretty .... Kelly
If need be just charge an additional fee to help offset the extra expense for those who want paypal that way they can do the payment plan setup without hurting you in the process that's what I'd do atleast.
Yeah they give me 6 months to pay for SushiBox pedals though
Ah, good to know that's what you're using it for, that'd be the one thing only they do
I'll make sure @Sushi Box FX got everything setup properly!
It's not a huge difference though, I think it's like 1%. So if you're buying the most expensive pedal I offer I'm losing $3 more on a paypal transaction than I would if you paid with a card. Cost of running business, not a big deal. I like paying with paypal, I don't want to charge customers more for using a payment method they like.
You just described Capitalism.
I just ran through everything with @Sushi Box FX, tested Paypal + all the new-site stuff (My Account stuff, streamlined-shipping, etc), and all is still happy with Paypal.
So, we'll leave both enabled, no extra fees anywhere, and ya'll can pay however you want: Google Pay, Apple Pay, CC direct on the site (and you can save cards on the site for future purchases, it is all handled by Stripe and fully PCI compliant storage/etc; payment security is part of my day-job), or any-of-the-Paypal-options.
So buy away

So a question about my Particle Accelerator submini tube version. I have a Candy Red side jack laser etched version that I really like and plan to keep but there is a ping when I switch the pedal on, is that the microphonic issue that is spoken of with those submini pedals? Does it indicate something worse or pending failure? If not no worries as it is an always on for me any way, plus I really dig the sound for recording and I trust @Sushi Box FX can make repairs if needed.
