Hello folks!

Some of you may have noticed that my title now reads Vendor =)

I will be offering my hand wired/hand painted stomp boxes for sale here at MLP in the vendor classifieds from here out.

I bring these pedals to life from a blank canvas. I drill the blank enclosures, rough, prime, paint, and clear coat them. I also populate the circuit boards, and wire the internals myself.

These pedals will be available as i build them, and currently in limited numbers.

I am a one man operation and do this as a hobby primarily, the fact I can sell them is truly a large bonus lol

I plan to build a couple, then advertise them for sale here. Once they have sold, I will offer another batch, so on and so on.

I build these for several reasons. I love the creative outlet that painting them gives me, and the building/technical aspect occupies my mind, and keeps me busy, thus keeping me out of trouble.

I built and painted a handful of these years ago, but my run was cut short due to poor choices that i made in life. Alcoholism/addiction took its toll on me, and all other activities in life took a back seat.

So... here i am now, trying this again for a second time, clean and sober with a new outlook on life =)

Right now I only offer two pedals, a fuzz (based on the Jordan Bosstone, but with some changes in component values, and LEDs in the clipping section) and a Red Llama clone.

I may start offering more circuits in the future, but for now, only those two.

What makes them unique is of course, the paint. No two paint jobs are exactly alike, so if you choose to purchase one, you will truly have a one of a kind stomp box =)

If your short on cash, no worries, you will have chances throughout the year to win a pedal for free! So be sure to watch for contests and give aways from time to time =)

I look forward to offering my art/pedals to the good folks of MLP. They will sell for $119.82 (free shipping to the lower 48)

Ill leave you with a few pictures =)
