Gasalcoholics anonymous? whoever said this was a help group?

It means exactly what he thinks it means: http://www.folktek.com/instruments/modular/mescaline

[dubkitty]

that was "you'd" in the vague collective use of the word, not the singular personal pronoun. please excuse the imprecise word choice. substitute "one would think." it made me think of a Kickstarter for a psychedelic drugs lab. fuckin' hell, people are nitpicking me all over the internet today. maybe i should take a nap. i would have thought that this group would have gotten that par-TIC-u-lar joke. maybe it's a 70s thing.

I got it. And THAT I may have kickstarted

I remember hearing about these a while ago, then radio silence for many moons. Looks like it may be a thing?

I find the combo of fragile looking box and stomp switch a bit weird. But they look pretty

Yeah I don't think these are really intended for pedalboard use. More of a tabletop/studio only tool. I'm a little tempted to back, but I've flipped all the Folktek gear I've ever owner, including the euro version of these pedals

I got it.
Yeah I get that but like, stomp switches like this are a little silly in that environment. IMO. Get some soft touch on there?

What does everyone think of the sounds on the YouTube demos for the Folktek pedals? Very nice IMO, but nothing uniquely stunning. Almost like a ”best hits” from other pedals in the genre with minor twists. Maybe I'm ignoring their sublime genius in an attempt to prevent spontaneous combustion of my cc.

Isn't mesc all-natural though?

[dubkitty]

not necessarily. peyote is all-natural; mescaline is a compound that can be synthesized and requires a fairly complicated process to extract itfrom peyote buttons.

i'm so pleased that i only had to correct one error in that post. lately my accuracy has become so bad that i'm starting to worry about cognitive issues.

OK, two errors. 2021 is not going particularly well from three months in. and let's not talk about the errors in my personal life or we'll be here all night.

A second BOSS HM-2 and a BF-2 (MIJ) incoming.

DREAM TEAM!

The HM-2 turned out to be MIJ as well! Both units are perfectly working. I was on the MIJ BF-2 hunt for a while. It's about time to make a new proper demo video.

[dubkitty]

incoming: Boss BD-2 Blues Driver, Ibanez LF7 Lo-Fi. ordering a Shallow Water when the Biden check comes in.

you probably know this already, but it really pays to comparison-shop on eBay vs. Reverb; i got the Blues Driver for $76/free shipping on eBay which beat Reverb by ~$15, but the cheapest LF7 there was over $200 while one was on Reverb @ $169/free shipping. 2 minutes of clicks saved me $45, which ain't chickenfeed even in the 21st century. that's almost a week's worth of cigarettes at Virginia prices. if i was in Massachusetts i would totally quit; when i was there for the Swervedriver show i tried to buy a pack but they wanted like $14 or $16. i was like "no thanks, i'll wait till i get to Pennsylvania."

[UglyCasanova]

The BD-2 is so good. I miss mine every now and then. I should pick one up.
