I still have a factory tour on my list — I do hope you agree that these EHX forums were reasonably a higher priority?

you’d better believe it.

agreed, The only thing I watched in the ‘fuzz movie’ more than once was the ehx factory bit, it would be great to see some cool pics of the place and the folk that work there.

You better be

a year ago this was my pedal set up.

like a fool I got sucked into the ‘wanting the latest things’ and sold them all… *facepalm.

…but i’m on my way back. : )

Here are two pictures showing the length of the patch cable. You can spread them out a little bit, but I think that defeats the purpose of them.

I think you can spread the pedals far enough apart, that you will not hit the wrong pedal.

Hopefully this helps.

Well, what i meant was i need to be conscious of space to try to fit the pedals into a board without putting them too close that my foot twitches and gets the wrong one, or worse, 2 distortion pedals at the same time its not the length of the cable that the a problem. sorry i didn’t really word that clearly enough lol.

I’ll post some pics later, but here is a list of vintage EHX pedals I’ve seen sell on eBay more than a few times for less than $100.

10 Band Graphic Equalizer (silver and black version)
Small Stone (both versions 1 and 2)
LPB-2
Dr. Q
Bassballs
Octave Multiplexer (3 knob version)
The Silencer
Soul Preacher

Here’s a soundclip I posted using 3 different EHX distortions: http://soundclick.com/share?songid=6820524

Deluxe Big Muff Pi, Reissue Hot Tubes, Germanium OD

There are only 2 different riffs, each played 3 times.

Can you guess which distortion was used with which riff?

Riff 1a
Riff 1b
Riff 1c
Riff 2a
Riff 2b
Riff 2c

As Scott said, 1968 was the actual year of EH’s birth. The first product wasn’t the LPB-1 but the Axis fuzz, also sold as the Guild Foxey Lady.

edit: Just a little short of space, taking cables into account.. damn. I really do not want to muddle things up though, i have my reasons

Have you thought about using those “pancake” patch cables? Hosa is one company that makes them. I’m starting to replace all of my regular patches with these.
