    From the guy that started this “new russian big muff” thing:

    I went back to the music store and checked out the Russian muff again and I may have exaggerated the size difference. Still, something about it seems different from the one I had before. Maybe the one I had was a 90’s version.

    So is Electro Harmonix! I was at NAMM 2009 last week and I couldn’t believe the response for our new products and the mention of how some guys still have the same boxes from 1973. Electro Harmonix was, is and will be strong for years to come. You had guys coming by the booth and bowing before Mr. EHX himself. We make pedals right!

    That’s awesome. I think the Big Muff is one of the most iconic pedals of all time.

    But I’m just talking about when it comes to people who don’t know about musical equipment.

    My Dad being in the antique business, he gets to venture into old people’s houses and goes to a lot of garage sales. He’s never got a pedal unfortunately.

    his best buys musically though:
    Roland Juno 60 analog synth- 40 dollars
    Sequential Circuits Six Trak analog synth- 10 dollars

    we’ve also bought and resold different amps and guitars, usually doubling our money.

    I went to a flea market once with him and got an EMU Mo Phat sequencer for a dollar!!! Sold it for 300. Helped pay for some nice gear.

    Someday though, someday he’ll find some pedals.

    i never find anything musically related at flea markets. the only stuff like that there are bad quality acoustic and electric guitars.

    I can find polaroid cameras for about a dollar though. :D

    I got an awesome Kay SG bass at a flea market. There is this really cool flea market in Rogers, Ohio which is just referred to as Rogers that I find stuff. My Dad and I bought a Danelectro Acoustic Electric for 140 and got 300 for it on Ebay a few weeks later.

    It’s a huge outdoor fleamarket. Hundreds of vendors.

    And it pays to go early, though guitars you can often wait til the end of the day.

    I always wanted to buy some kind of cheap and crappy electric guitar in some second-hand store, and do weird things to it – I like weird instruments a lot :)
