 Frequently Asked Questions 
  • What order do I put my effects in?
    This isn't a firm rule, but it is only my personal opinion on what sounds best. guitar - buffer - compressor - tuner - wah - phaser - distortion - overdrive - eq - clean boost (if used for a solo volume boost) - chorus/flanger/phaser (if deeper phase is needed) - delay - reverb - buffer - clean boost (if used for pushing the amp into further overdrive) - amp


  • Is the order the same if I use my amp's distortion?
    No - you would want to put the following effects in the effect loop of your amp: eq - clean boost (if used for a solo volume boost) - chorus/flanger/phaser (if deeper phase is needed) - delay - reverb - clean boost (if used for pushing the amp into further overdrive)


  • What about a volume pedal? Where do I put it?
    Put the volume pedal *before* any overdrive or distortion to control the amount of gain. If you want to control the actual volume, put it *after* any overdrive or distortion and before the delay or in the effects loop right before the delay.


  • What is the return policy?
    You have 7 days from the day you receive your pedal to decide if you like it or not. If you return it, it must contain all shipping and packing material and be in new condition.


  • What is the warranty on the pedals?
    5 year warranty includes parts and labor and return shipping back to you. You are responsible to ship it to us. If we open it up and find repairs that are from misuse, abuse (accidental or not) or neglect than we will not cover the repairs for free. The warranty will transfer to the new owner should you sell the pedal as well.


  • Why don't I sound like the soundclips?
    Usually this question comes up from novice guitar players (No offense, just being honest). If I play as usual and then play the same thing left handed, I will sound different. ALOT of tone is in the hands and how you use the equipment. Also, if you are using a 10 watt solid state amp and my soundclip is using a fender twin then it's pretty fair to say you aren't going to get the same tones.


  • My pedal started having a hiss/noise/problem
    Has anything else changed? Are you using a power supply or battery? Many noise problems are due to a battery going low, or inferior power supply. Have you tried it by itself in the chain? When finding problems it's best to isolate the assumed source. Have you tried it with different cables? Are you using the gain channel of your amp or clean channel? Most higher gain pedals sound best into the clean channel of an amp.


  • Are there any sound differences between the Pinnacle 2 with the toggle boost switch and the resissue with the stomp boost switch?
    There are no sound differences, other than the gain boost switch is controlled electronically rather than mechanically. This makes the switch much much quieter than on the original version.


  • Is there any chance of getting a Faux Tape Echo or Analogecho pedal with a tap tempo option
    Right now, no - however, we are planning on coming out with a delay circuit with a tap feature later this year around summer time.


  • What are the tonal differences between the super plextortion and the plextortion?
    Basically, the plextortion is my take on a more vintage sounding distortion (maybe like a celestion greenback type of Marshall tone) where the super plextortion would be more modern - maybe more like a Steve Vai "passion and warfare" ere type tone. The super plextortion also has a more flexible gain structure, since it has the 3 level gain boost switch along with the gain control knob.


  • What are the power requirements for the pedals
    Tape Echo-33mA, Analog Echo-29mA, Ego Comp-7mA, Pinnacle-4mA, Pinnacle Reissue-9mA, Buffer-9mA, Super Plextortion-8mA, Nirvana Chorus-13mA, Faux Spring Reverb-78mA, Plexi-Drive-4mA,
