= Introduce Yourself =

[phoenix_crush]

Hey, My name is Thom. I'm 16 and I and play guitar and piano. I'm in a post-hardcore band inspired by postrock and (real)screamo. I love my dd-7 and hope to get more pedals as I only have a few.

Hi,

My name is James and I just registered and figured I'd jump in right away and introduce myself.

I'm a bassist mainly and have been playing for 16 years. I play a bit of guitar too but I'm not really good enough to gig. I found this site via your ol' pal Aen while I was researching his Shiva a few weeks back. I'm here because I love fuzz pedals and FX in general (check sig for fuzzes) and love being exposed to obscure and over the top boxes and the geniuses/crazy people behind them. I love pedal pron and checking out other peoples boards as well as shamelessly posting (and reposting) pics of my own.

I see some familar names from the Talkbass forums (what's up Joe and BigChief).

Not really that much to tell,...I've got a few gigs,...an awesome wife,...we work to pay the bills (the rest feeds my habit). I'm mainly here to lurk but will chime in from time to time.

Anyway,...thanks to all the mods and admins that keep the forum going and I'll see you all on the boards.

Hey, I'm Ed. I'm 23 and live just outside Philly, in New Jersey. Found this place through Mid-Fi. Yadda Yadda Yadda.

Hey Matt! Welcome!!!

Way to make your first post here rather than in the giveaway thread... But now you should head on over there and get entered!

I found this site through Earthquaker Devices, after snatching up a Dream Crusher. Super stoked to be here!

And these seem to be some very neat pedals, my friend. Welcome!

[Irreversible]

G'nivening.

Some short information.
I'm Jason, 21 Years, from Germany and I want to expand my sounds, so this forum seems really good to get an idea what is possible besides the "mainstream" pedals.
I like every kind of music, books, films etc. and I play several instruments, but mostly I play guitar.

greetings

o hai guyz!

[MaggotBrainNY]

Yaaarrrrr!

New here. Name is Ryan. I'm from Upstate NY. I play in a metal band called Maggot Brain (see sig.), and do a sort of weird psychadelic folk solo-project called Hangman. I also spend as much time in the recording studio as possible.

I'm a general guitar/amp and fuzz/dirt enthusiast. Love talking about gear and music.
Relavent to this forum, I'm a proud owner of a Dwarfcraft TGD, and EQD Tusk Fuzz, so that's how I found this great place.

Looking forward to further discourse with all of you.

[Trifarce]

sup guys.
My name's Tyler and I'm unfortunately from northern Alabama. Been playing guitars and basses for around a year, so I'm not that great. But I don't have to be great to FUCKING ROCK MY UNFORTUNATE NEIGHBOR'S ASS OFF, with the help of every fuzz I own of course

and for good measure, MOTHER FUCKIN SMURFS UP IN THIS BITCH

[gururyan]

Yet another "Ryan" here, some of you know me from other forums as gururyan. Been around while, been playing guitar way longer than I like to admit considering my lack of skills. Like I've been saying, I have the heart of a guitarist, just no the talent of one. That said, I love playing anyway and enjoy gear immensely. I love photography, sailing, anything you can do in the mountains, and enjoy many vices.

Hail Fuzz-lovers

I've been here for a while, but only just found this thread.

Guitar teacher in New Zealand, playing 23 years, who has returned to pedals the last year and some from racks, which were not getting much use of late and am loving the boutique-ness of them all.

Only 9 pedals atm;

Empress Superdelay
Wampler Ego Compressor
Wampler Nirvana Chorus
Catalinbread serrano picaso
Dr. Sci miniRRR
Pigtronix Polysaturator
Empress EQ
Double Hotcake
Devi-ever Bit-Mangler

with Cosmicchorus & Devi VFM on the way soon thanks to Philip of Pedalhead

Looking forward to the weird and wonderful sounds of noise to be discovered.

Best
Jason
