Dunno. I'm just speculating. It could go a few different ways. (co-sponsored event, individual BF limited editions, BF absentia) Or it could be an inside joke about the nightmare of all that extra holiday shipping.

I can say that I've seen a handful of companies comment on the tariff crunch in their IG stories this year, and now those same builders are sharing the blackout hashtag. (Meris, Chase Bliss, etc.) :snax:

You may be waiting another 50 years to get your hands on one. Why reissue the Swinger now? I would have to speculate it has something to do with Naruhito's recent visitation with the sun goddess.

Who, I have that same neck on my Performer. Ugly as sin but I love that guitar.

Very stoked for that! I'm a big fan of black on black pedals.

Isn't the afterneath already black? That's a sensible choice but I figure if you're these companies you would do something that isn't a black pedal already so its a big change.

The all-blacks are live. Most are editions of 100.

So there's one new design somewhat hidden in this batch--

https://reverb.com/item/29482725-old-bl ... ive-of-100

Old Blood Noise Endeavors created Minim, a new pedal built from the foundation laid out by Rêver. Inside is a newly voiced reverb with harmonic tremolo, a modulated delay with nearly infinite repeats available, and a reverse section selectable between normal speed or double speed.


:idk:

I think the Tensor looks the best, but some of these are just a bit silly to me. I don't think I could read the Minim in a well-lit room. Nothing says practical quite like: painted black, wrapped in electrical tape, and then dipped in oil.

OBNE put out a pair of videos for the production Minim. If you've got 19 minutes to burn. Have at it I guess. :idk:

For me, their videos are just an excruciatingly impractical way to introduce pedals. Three minutes of someone noodling by themselves is all I need.

available 11/22
