Ha - played silver machine as soon as i plugged it in !charge wrote:...I hear Hawkwind...
Well - it' been a long time coming - this is mainly my fault for being so damn fussy - first of all about the paint and then the case assembly - the floppy treadle thing is something that has always annoyed me so much ! Checking out the prototype - it was hard to believe i wasn't playing a vintage pedal . Si if you've been waiting for this announcement too long = blame me - Stu and Dave had the circuits nailed long ago .
The circuit selection is amazingly easy ( The ones with the holes in the top were always a bit of a pain - when the switch moved an iota it could get caught on the side of the hole and you'd find yourself engaging the fuzz as you wahed ) - so with this - there is a flexibility to the front on the unit that allows you press either side of the front of the treadle engaging either effect - we did this in the past - it's not new .
I am working on the costing now so I'm going to work this slightly differently , after the nightmare of the last list .
I'll take all the emails from the forum and to info@macaris.co.uk and put them in order - I'll then send out a mail with the price asking if you want to confirm ( as a ballpark it's going to be v similar to a Pro MKII - case is cheaper but obviously build is more expensive ) .
I am so pleased to have another superb pedal to add to our range - I love this concept of a no-corners-cut product using the original tooling and the very best components and builders we could be involved with .
Dave - thanks once again and Stu - great to have you involved .
EW - I owe you a beer or three
Graham - thanks
Philip - there will be one to demo soon :) - thanks for all your work on the clips
I'd like to thank my Mother , my father and anyone else who knows me
cheers to all
