I've spent the weekend getting the workshop set up so I can hit the ground running on Monday 😁

There's some builds and/or restorations that I've had in for 2+ years(!) but if I said I'd been in a severe state of mental breakdown and upheaval in those same 2 years you'd understand the delay 🤣🫠🫠😵‍💫🫠😵‍💫😶‍🌫️🫥. I promise you'll all have your guitars back asap, better than ever!

And Casper has already settled in. He's found himself a safety cave under the counter, nicely furnished with a blankie and a chew 🐻‍❄️

I think this is the design I'm going with for the S***f Button 🤷‍♂️

Most of the parts for the first S***f Button 😈

• The S***f Button is a passive momentary killswitch pedal that you can mount to your pedalboard or even your strap.

• It means you can do the cool Tom Morello/Buckethead style stuttering thing with absolutely no modifications to your guitars.

• It's passive, which means it doesn't need power! No 9v battery or PSU required.

• It's the tiny 1590A size enclosure so it won't take up much space on your pedalboards and if you want to mount it on your strap to press it with your hand instead of your foot it won't be too bulky, heavy or awkward.

• You can keep it held in and use it as a mute switch for guitar changes too.

I am currently designing the S***f Box which will have a latching killswitch for muting AND a momentary killswitch for the stutter effect 🤘🤘🤘

I know it's just more of a utility pedal rather than something exciting but I really reckon people will be able to do some very cool things with these and I can see them being really useful for a lot of high gain players.

🚨🚨🚨 New workshop alert 🚨🚨🚨

Thank you everyone for your patience while I've been sorting out the workshop problem, it's been very stressful and overwhelming and has really fu**ed my productivity but we've got the keys to our new workshop now 😁❤️😁❤️

We'll be up and running asap and with ALL my woodworking tools in the same place for the first time ever you can expect some very things 😈

Starting to design a momentary killswitch in a pedal (no modification to your guitar needed), tap on the foot switch to momentarily kill your output.
It'll be the small 1590A enclosure so it won't take room on your pedalboards and it's passive so no battery needed!

Questions:

1) Black with green text or green with black text?
2) What do we think of the foot switch placement in the centre of the pedal rather than nearer to the bottom?
3) What do we think of the name? It's not a kill switch, it's a S***f Button! 🤘😈

EP (Properties) LTD and another to add to the list! My my, what a busy inbox I've had today.

Bit childish now though isn't it?

Does Elizabeth Pittard actually do any work or just send snarky emails to people? Or is that actually her job role at EP (Properties) LTD?

If you thought 50 Cent was spiteful and petty you've seen nothing yet!

Once again:
