How does this sound on guitar or was it made primarily for bass?

it was made for guitar i think. there's some sounds on his youTuoouob vid that i can't get to, even with a 6'er.

i would try it on guitar.... but i have not... and an way too ham fisted for those tiny strings.

01) he sells 'em for $75 usually i think (WAY too cheap), he jammed it into a smaller box for me for a little more (i think it was like $20 more?). i had to give up a battery compartment, but that's no big. fuck a battery.

02) what.

03) the Elektribe EMX 1 i think? the second generation they did with the EHX toobs? the one with the 5 mono synths and ze drum machine. love it.

Hitler? i'm confused.

That's my friend, Matt. I was in a band a long time ago. He makes cool shit fo cheaps. I traded him one of my fuzzes for his Mad Doctor stutter pedal. Really great simple pedal. Just as good as the Utter Stutter without the feedback loop. The Death Ray is similar to the Tim Escobedo, the UglyFace, with has a 386 slamming a 555 timer. What's cool about Matt is that he works from scratch and develops his own circuits from the ground up. He is one Facebook regularly and has a page their for his effects:
