and an absolute treat it is!

We broke the 500 mark people. Pedals 500,501, and 502.

well done Mike

Cheers buddy!

that's some achievement mike and quite fitting that the saltbooster was number 500.

I finally got around to making a demo of the Civil War Muff and I quickly demoed my other pedals as well.

Cheers. Would check them out but my work laptop isn't playing sound from youtube at the moment for some reason!

Glad to be part of that list - well done Mike, had been great watching you and the business evolve.

I'd have got nowhere without you guys, and I'll always remember that. <3

500's a great achievement.

Have you kept records? Any idea what you have made most of?

Yup, I keep track of everything, as far as favourites go here's the headlines:

Saltbooster - 68
'78 IC Muff - 58
Muff (various) - 53
Dual Drive pedals (various) - 47
Saltstorm - 37
Dream Box - 30
Modded TS808 - 26
Fuzz Face - 25
Saltshaker - 24
Echo Base - 15
Tenderbone MKIII - 12
Dist² - 8
LOLYCHORUS - 7

Of the other pedals I've built modded versions of etc the following seem to be popular:


Fender Blender 14
Fuzz Factory 13
Box Of Rock 7
Klon 15
RAT 10

The Civil War Muff is #492.

I don't know what my other 2 pedals are.

I think it's cool that my first 2 pedals were pre-Bristol and all 3 pedals are within the 500 MBM pedals made.

Someone needs to put all this on Wikipedia so we don't lose the history.

pedal #500 was waiting on my doormat when i got home, haven't had a chance to try it out yet but sure it's A-OK.

cheers mike!

*THUMBSUP*

In years to come TGP will value the original London ones more because London has superior electricity and a higher occurrence of m@j@ in the air. Worth holding on to as a nest egg.

Mike, i'm hoping this is the place to ask you pedal questions. I don't want to be inappropriate. I just got a EH muff-fuzz from the late 60's or early 70's. It isn't working and i have someone looking at it here but i wanted to know if you are familiar with them. Is it worth fixing? Is it something you may like to fix if it's worth it? I've seen demos on it and i was told it predates most stompboxes and is one of the orignal EH products. When you have time what are your thoughts please..Thanks

They're nice pedals but not really worth a great deal as they're not all that sought after I'm afraid. I hope you're not paying too much as it's a very simple circuit - probably only takes 30 minutes to build one completely from scratch.

i think i've finally killed my OCD, mike. not sure how i managed it, will investigate. may have to comission you for a repair :(

You've not plugged in that fucking wrong power supply again have you, you clot?

definitely not.
