The Fuzwami is thick and chewy and remarkably responsive to volume and tone control. Loving it with a telecaster.
The record is Midwives. https://mdwvs.bandcamp.com/album/lp

You don't have spam, you experience it.

Spam has you. :zen:

What the fuck kind of update is that.
I've gotten a couple of reports of tracking status described as "Undeliverable" when the mail carrier tried to drop it off but no one was home. It freaks people out but they just deliver it the next day or whatever. Tracking info is sometimes anti-comforting.

Mine arrived but I'm :grumpy:

Image


:picard: dad opened my shiz (because SS didn't put any name on the label, just the shipping address) when he knew I was waiting for a package to arrive. Instead of thinking to give me the tracking number from the box, to figure out the sender he sends me that photo spoiling the surprise. OLD OLD OLD OLD OLD. A real pistol, love that old man and he thought he was doing me a favor BUT HOT DAMN I AM CRESTFALLEN :(

Drove across town to collect it and figure out the mystery.

Some brief text & nice font/artwork on an inside flap of the box, but nothing about the unlabeled mystery pedal. Opened it up to see it's a Harmonic Percolator + Rat from Turnip Farm FX which I've never heard of. OK cool, no worries, a quick trip to the search engine will turn up....NO INFORMATION OF VALUE.

I went back to the box, checked the inside shipping label which had crossed out info, had been shipped to MA, then searched usps for the tracking # which confirmed this origin, and the label's date being Dec 16th. So deductive reasoning pointed me in what I think is the right direction. Thanks for the effort my man (I paid attention, you had struggles of your own). I'll contend with deciphering this piece of kit tomorrow.

It's always something in MFing 2016 :whoa:

Turnip farm (Ian) is one of the best builders out there. Super good!
I've got his contact details somewhere if you ever need them.

So much this!!
Mine hasn't updated for a week now, and the language they use to describe the status/location led me to believe it was still in Germany preparing for the leap to my marks country.

Upon consulting the FAQ it reads more like it already made that leap a week ago... :wha?:
So maybe stuck in customs? The suspense!! It's freaking me out, but mostly in a good way :lol:

So true, can't be anything but greatness. Sucks about the ruined surprise though!

Plugging in the Fuzwami immediately. Already listening to (and loving) the Midwives record.
Will be snacking and brewing heartily and having a SPAM sandwich for lunch tomorrow.
:hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug:
:hello:

Glad your digging the fuzwami! I got a chance to play it before I sent it out and I really liked it. Also glad you like the record, midwives is one of my co-workers bands and they're a great group of dudes.

I guess it has to officially show up as late before it's marked as late for the purposes of a refund... despite the fact that (as far as I know) it hasn't been delivered.
