His last post said that I was jealous because he's more popular than me, though I haven't heard of Freekish before today...said that I spend all day on my forum (he really doesn't know me, does he?), and said that I'm probably slaving over my soldering iron all the time. That last one is true...I actually solder my own pedals.


there was also something about resistor shavings on my balls?


I don't do a whole lot of work on pedals and such, but does one often shave resistors? If so, how do you get the shaving cream to stick to something that small?


not a common thing, but i do sometimes. :idk:

Ah yes. There was that. I thought I'd leave you to defend your balls.

Nice job of tryin to cover it up now. Looks like they just rearranged the layout anyway. They should go down in flames. He thought it was so funny to say he could get "arrested over pedals". ever heard of fraud??

Lol, I wonder how much money they had to sink into getting those new boards made and cheap joyolokols on the case. Sadly at the expense of some guitar player.

This whole charade is ridiculous on so many levels. Can't believe the amount of sleaze this guy reeks with his business. Just goes to show ya that being unethical with your business will get ya in the end.

The only store near me that sells any good pedals (Blackout, Earthquaker, Fairfield, Empress, Catalinbread, etc.) also sells Freekish Blues and JHS, I've had to bite my tongue the last few times I've been in there.

does JHS rip off their designs too? i did not know that.

i mean, they don't have much for bass anyways, but i DID buy a Low Drive once. was nice enough. don't really like supporting peoples that give good builders a bad name though.

Bernie's Vacation probably developed some kind of nutella secreting gland through evolution so that he doesn't have to roll down to the store. He's just workin with what he's got.
