The Plus pedal guys have a new toy coming out...

Gimmick, or useful development? Probably the former, but it sounds good.

    Ultimately it’s just another dirt pedal. The only important thing is if it sounds good

  • I absolutely love my plus pedal so I'd be keen to have a play with anything new they bring out, that said I already have 1 too many fuzz pedals (I have one) for my playing style so I can't imagine having much need for this. 
    Full disclosure: I'm a terrible guitar player. Work for Reverb.com as their UK Marketing Director and prior to that was Head of Digital Marketing at Andertons for 6 years.

    It's sad that I want this just because it of the concpet.  I think it would look cool.

    Well last night they opened an indigogo page to raise preorders for the first batch. The first 250 were $130, and sold in 4 minutes. The next 500 are $160 and >half gone already. I'm guessing that capital (currently 100k) will easily fund the first lot to retailers - 20 pedals each to 10 big shops then onwards and upwards.

    I'm on the list. I figured at that price I can go wrong, seeing as retail will be well north of 200

    They're also doing a "live demo" via youtube - you can upload your own guitar track and the system will play it through the actual pedal. It's really quite impressive...

    Also got an email from them saying that - as an early buyer of the plus pedal - they’d honour the $159 price even if the allocation goes. Which is rather cool of them.

    That's really good. I guess they're breaking even at 159 but would rather have a load of pedals "out there" getting on youtube, instagram, reddit etc.

    To be 100% honest being a fuzzy heavy distortion it's absolutely not the sort of thing I normally lust after, but I love the idea of it, and frankly it looks fucking wicked.

    It looks great... but the sound didn’t appeal to me on the few vids I saw.

    Yep. Their first pedal looked like it started as a cool idea for a sound that ended up in a funky box.

    This thing looks like a funky box in search of worthwhile contents.

    Don't talk politics and don't throw stones. Your royal highnesses.
