Cornish question

What's Hot

Ive always wondered...
The labels on the front of Cornish pedals, are they stickers of some description?
I noticed when they crop up for sale they sometimes have a serial number somebody's name on. But I wouldn't want to buy a pedal with somebody else's name on the front.
Are the labels removable?

    Yes mate, they are simple labels that will peel off. They look similar to those made on a label maker...

    Be aware though that there was a long debate on TGP about the effect removing the label made to your tone.

    Note: my labels have a wider font as only five letters in my first name and surname, Warren's are closer due to the number of letters in the name.

    It's absolutely true that the Cornish pedals with the wider font have more sustain, and slightly great separation.

    Deffo more compression with the narrower font pedals though.

    I'd want mine to be tall and narrow, more compression and an aggressive sparkle at the top.

    Some indie builder should do the 'pasty fuzz'.
