Can't spell AnalogMan without Anal. Talk about a well organized and well run business. It's refreshing to see someone that cares this much about what he does and takes so much pride in it.
You guys should give me a cali. I know there are a lot of starving kids out there, war, disease, political strife and they made 4 high school musicals but i think this takes precedent over all that.
+Origin Effects Funny story for ya. About a month ago, I bought a limited edition big box cali76 std for retail price. You guys probably know that your big box comps are reselling for an arm and a leg, but some store in california was moving inventory and noticed they had one on the shelf that wasn't posted on reverb! Serial number R6 lol I bought the pedal 8 minutes after it was posted, I believe. And side note, I literally sh*t myself when I saw the post, but it's okay because I was on my bathroom break at work... so crisis averted.
It's so nice to see Dan wearing a Keeley shirt while Mike is wearing his Analogman shirt. I can't imagen someone visiting the Gibson factory wearing a Fender shirt.
pedal builders generally have mutual respect for each other. MXR even has a guest program where Jeorge Tripps (of Way Huge) invited Analog Mike to create the MXR Duke of Tone. pedal builders collaborate sometimes. You won't find this in the guitar world. Fender / Gretsch will never collaborate with Gibson on anything.
At some point, Mike needs to open a museum! I also love how Mike closed his eyes while answering some of the questions. You could see his mind sorting through years of information and experiences. What a treasure of knowledge!
Last summer I stopped in to visit the crew a while and was warmly received. Purchased the in store demo KOT (no long waiting period), and I've been thrilled with it ever since. Got a complimentary AM tie dye tee in blue just like Mike's, Dan's right, AM is a totally tripped out spot on our planet. Vortex of happiness. Everything's Hand Made, one at a time. Just the best. Thanks Guys !
What a lovely Pedal Show. How can you not love Mike when one of his first comments is about Chris Squire- 'Rest In Peace' with gentle warmth and sincerity. What a great story and what a fascinating person in his genuine humility for such incredible skill, vision and the joy and inspiration he has given while treating weekend warriors with the same respect as legends. I agree, his email replies have always been respectful, honest and as prompt as his precious time allows. Great show guys and long may Analogman's song go on.
There's something quite special about seeing dedicated focus paired with zero arrogance, resulting in a first class product in a very honest setting. Hats off to Mike and The AnalogMan Team.
Mike Piera is a living legend. The man’s at the top of the game and rightfully so. I’ve played his pedals for about 20 years now and I have yet to play a bad one. Can’t say that for every company or builder. Long live the Analogone!
Amazing! I really could see exactly where/how my KOT is being made! You guys should win a medal of world guitar legacy !! It’s incredible to realize the effort you’re given to make all of us, anonymous guitar players all over the world, closer! Instructive, educative and the funniest guitar channel ever..not only sharing vital information but even more important sharing Inspiration! Thank you 🏅
I’m re-watching this 4+ years after this was originally released, having just received my wonderful King of Tone after waiting 4 years on the waiting list, while also feeling a little nostalgic and sad with how much the world has changed since with COVID-19, masks, distancing, travel, etc.
When I got my King of Tone, I stopped searching for overdrives. For a while that is. 5 years later, I still haven't tried an overdrive that is better to my ears. Like Queen, It's a kind of magic.
I got on the KOT wait list after watching That Pedal Show. I can’t wait to get the pedal. Great to see behind the scenes and hear from the actual “Analog Man”.
probably was still waiting at that point, I got on the list 7 days after this video came out, and just received my email for the order this past Monday. 4 years, 4 months, 10 days lol.
Alexandre Gallant do what I did. Throw your name up there, set and forget. You’ll still be playing guitar in a year or two, be surprised when your name pops up and there ya go!
Mind officially blown, just by Mikes work ethic and the history of how he got to where he is, yes the collection is amazing as well, but the chips and values, the new old stock thinking…man…and the pedals all sound amaze balls! I feel like selling all my pedals just to buy a. Few AM pedals…ahahah
Utterly brilliant, so great to see Mike in the flesh (So to speak!) please, please don't ever change Mr Analogman, seeing 1 guy make those KOT's and then seeing it on my board is worth every penny and every minute spent waiting.
How good the AnalogMan stuff is? I bought a DS1 modded and a Bi-Chorus (stupidly selled after few days ‘cause is not stereo…😢) in a used market in Rome, Italy, and only today, once I took of from the box (yes, I have the box of that DS1 with the “sun” of Mike stamp on it! 😍) I’ve realized how good the DS1 sounds! Thx very much Dan and Mick for this reportage and Mike to being so genius!!❤
When I studied electronics many moon ago, what Mike and his crew are doing is what I envisioned. Alas, I am an industrial electrician. I will be watching this episode more than once.
Awesome guys, I just received my order confirmation for my KOT 2 days ago, and now, your video comes up !!! Perfect timing !!! But now I want a Beano Booster ... :)
I had a chance to try it! Analogman is most probably the best pedal maker when it comes to drive however i’ve put an EP booster next to a beano booster and the EP won big time! Strat/paulie into DRREI and ac15
This is absolutely epic. Thank you guys for allowing us mere mortals to get a first-hand look into stuff like this that we never would have a chance to otherwise. WE'RE NOT WORTHY!!!!!
I'm also fortunate to live within a few minutes of his shop. It was very cool to be able to make an appointment and go in to try out hos pedals in person. I think it is so cool that Dan and Mick made the long trek across the pond for this! Would have loved to have met them!
+Glen Cruciani We would love to do stuff like that, but this trip was super fast there and back. If we weren’t filming, we were driving, flying, sleeping or eating! :0) However, we’ve been overwhelmed at the general response to TPS in the USA, so we’re confident that North America is about to become a more frequent destination. Let’s organise some stuff! Thanks for watching.
Morning: watching the first half of the show. Afternoon: finally getting on the train to the nearest KoT. Evening: playing playing playing. Finishing off with the last part of the show. All of this while waiting for my TPS t-shirts shipment, mostly for supporting your show and thus assuring your journalistic independence. Cheers guys! Love it. Thank you so much.
TOO PROUD to have at LEAST one of this man's great creations (King of Tone, in White/Gold with some options...love it!) GREAT VID and interview/tour/gear greatness!!!!
Wish I played and had shows and stuff so that pedals would be tools, not merely the toys they are to me now. Nice to see chops I don't have played through pedals I don't have. I'm glad just knowing they're out there.
Nothing actually works, but don't let the dream die that one day i will get to all of them and fix them up. This is just what you tend to see with the tinkerer mentality. Such fun.
This video is magical. I've got an Analogman sunlion, and an old Analogman modded ts9 with the silver mod. Mike is doing something special over there! Top quality that you can hear.
An instant classic episode! Very enjoyable. Looking forward to the Sun Face feature. Have a BC109 version, that Mike suggested. Great fuzz! Cool guy Looking forward to my future King Of Tone, as well. Cheers Mates 🍻🍻
This is my favorite episode and I love D&M’s channel. I have bought many pedals from Analog Mike since 2003 and he has always been cool answering my many questions and getting me what I want. Getting to hear many of his pedals that I have not had the chance to buy is simply fantastic. That envelope filter and compressor.....wow.
The sexiest man alive behind the camera? Hair like that deserves to be in front of the camera. ..on a side note I think you just blew up the waiting list for analogman pedals.
I love my AstroTone fuzz the way some people love original Klons or King of Tones. It's a fuzz in a class just so far outside the standard and works perfectly on stage in a mix.
I was experimenting with my King of Tone today and I can definitely tell a lot of thought and care was put into that pedal. It's sounds open, detailed and huge. I love it. :D
+John Coleman Haha! Bless him, Mike is like many committed business owners that we know - simply always working. He was super gracious with his time even though we were totally slowing him down!
I'm not sure which I'm looking forward to more...the KoT or the Fuzz video! Thanks, guys! (P.S. TPS is the reason I'm on the waiting list in the first place)
He mentions making pedals that were inspired by tones from some of his favourite songs and artists, you guys should definitely create a Spotify playlist of your favs that are the reason why you do what you do everyday! Dan mentioned a while back that he put on a "70's rock" playlist and 'YMCA' was on it... not what he, or anyone else watching this channel is looking for.
This is so cool. I have a few Analogman mods and they are generally my favorites. I bought my first piece of gear form Mike in 1995/1996 before Paypal and all this. I had to send a money transfer from France, it was all new and exciting.
I'll admit, at first I was a little less excited than I should have been. After watching and listening, I've been enamored! Those 60fps moments were like butter for my eyes and ears. gorgeous and I can't wait for the next part!
Great video!!! Great idea talk to masters... Mike Analog.man, Keeley ... and others ... who knows guys as M.Fuller, B.Wampler, ZvexMna...and many others... Congratulations! Pedal Show is one of the best of all time!!!
I bought a second hand Beano and wanted some more info on it, i mailed a few pics over to them and within the hour id received an answer on when it was made and where it was first shipped to, fantastic people to deal with. The pedal is definitely a keeper.
This is the great episode on TPS channl, couple of mysteries for builder or player have also been answered by the master Mike, I'm really enjoy it, thanks for the great job.
Daniel Roberts you might want to check the waiting list, 2 years is longer then most people have had to wait. If there shipping pedals ordered after you just give them an email and they will make yours.
I just checked my email history. My request was dated 5/2016 so really only 1.5 years. I wasn't complaining though. Base on their website I might be hearing from them in 2 months. :)
Great show! I just got my KOT last month, after a year and a half wait! Mike is great answering emails and questions! It was so cool seeing his work shop and were my KOT was made! Thanks guys for the tour of Analogman's magic workshop. Mike is an amazing pedal maker and has great customer service!
That Pedal Show It is AMAZING!! I wish luck was all it was, hard work is more like it. I was talking to him a couple months ago about getting a GigRig G2....he hasn’t gotten any in stock yet.
I was wondering how long the wait time would be for pedals and here is what I found from Analog Man's website: "No Delays on almost all pedals! Most pedals we sell are in stock and ready to ship! These items will usually ship the business day after your order. There is no delay on pedals you send in for mods, those get top priority as we don't want people to be without their pedals for long. Usually mods take only a few days, often one day. Modified new pedals like Boss and Ibanez usually ship one to two days after the order as they are modified to your specs. Chorus pedals, Compressors, Beano Boosts, and Peppermint Fuzzes are custom made to order due to the many options, so are taking from a day to a week. Sunfaces are about a week or so to build to your specs. The King Of Tone is the only pedal that has a waiting list now, and the list is long but getting shorter. KoT list is explained on the KoT Delay page. Prince Of Tone pedals are usually available on Wednesdays but you can try any time. We completed the Bicomp list in May 2012! RMC wahs have been backed up but we are getting them in more regularly now, see my RMC page for current status. If you order a wah elsewhere, MAKE SURE they have it in stock as some dealers may not be as honest about availability. Most other pedals like Strobostomp, Boss, Xotic, MXR, Voodoo lab, Black Cat, T Rex, Bad Bob, EHX, Z Vex, Ernie Ball, MXR, Dunlop, etc should be on the shelf ready to ship the business day after we get your order. Feel free to ask before placing an order to be sure, or if you are in a rush. THANKS!!!"
Mike’s a great guy - I met him and picked up a SunFace at the old New York Amp Show (in Piscataway, NJ, natch) back when the blessed Frankenstrat2 was still alive. This were the days alright............... Pete.
I had no idea he was in Connecticut! Anyways, I'm on the waiting list, but I couldn't wait and recently purchased a KoT. It has high gain on both sides and a toggle on the Red side. I was hesitant to go high gain at all, but I'm so glad I did. There is plenty of range on the volume and drive controls. I find I get everything I need between 12 and 2 o' clock, and the toggle is very nice to have. It certainly is a fine overdrive and I have, or have had, many drive pedals. Mine's blue by the way, gorgeous!
Man alive.... Mike's the coolest dude in CT, no question. Got a sunface coming soon and I could not be more excited. Gotta get that envelope filter next! Thanks again and again guys!
Now that was a great video ... AnalogMan's shop looks exactly as I hoped it would ... the lair of the genius! I live in RI ... 15 minutes from the CT border. Wish I new you guys were coming over. Should do more of this type video, well done.
great episode, Mike is the nicest man you could ever hope to deal with. I bought a shinei companion fuzz when I was a youngster and didn't understand why it sounded terrible through my 100w laney transistor combo, I just thought fuzz was terrible Now I'm using decent valve amps I cant believe how good my Analogman Sunface and Beano Boost pedals sound. I've learnt so much about amps and pedals from your brilliant show, thank you again!
Awesome show! I've been looking forward to this one for a while. I had no idea AnalogMan was such a sweet guy. And that envelope filter sounded spectacular!
+John Marquez He really is. It was fascinating to get an insight into his world. Explains so much, in an entirely good way. Cheers and thanks for watching!
haha just started todays show, I'm a big fan so I hope you guys see the funny side. You know it's that pedal show when the knobs emerge haha. I didn't mean the guys. The intro, white knobs on the orange pedal haha. Love the show guys
There used to be a company, from Texas, I believe, called Paia or something like that. My stepdad bought me a pedal kit, an envelope filter, to make when I was 13. It was my introduction to soldering, and working on my own gear.
People who got on the list after seeing this episode have not yet made it to the top of the list for KoT :)
Watching in 2020 for the 15th time. Greatest episode
Haha me too!
Also guilty!!!
Me too in 2021
Just found it, first watch!
2023 hello
Can't spell AnalogMan without Anal. Talk about a well organized and well run business. It's refreshing to see someone that cares this much about what he does and takes so much pride in it.
Ritch Percival i love anal
@@skypekai I'm sure you love taking it! 😂
Haw about Anal Log Man? Uuff
I'm looking forward to watching this one - love checking out another pedal builders' offices!
The Cali 76 Compact Deluxe, is the best compressor pedal I've ever owned #justsaying
You guys should give me a cali. I know there are a lot of starving kids out there, war, disease, political strife and they made 4 high school musicals but i think this takes precedent over all that.
+Origin Effects Funny story for ya. About a month ago, I bought a limited edition big box cali76 std for retail price.

There's something quite special about seeing dedicated focus paired with zero arrogance, resulting in a first class product in a very honest setting. Hats off to Mike and The AnalogMan Team.
I love the work Mike does, and the pedals he built for Trey Anastasio have been such a huge part of his sound. I thank him for that!!
So fun! You should visit Earthquaker Devices, too.
ED is bad ass
mgscheue no
William Bodie Well, I guess that’s definitive, then!
Mike Piera is a living legend. The man’s at the top of the game and rightfully so. I’ve played his pedals for about 20 years now and I have yet to play a bad one. Can’t say that for every company or builder. Long live the Analogone!
A beano and a prince of tone, and your ready to gig. Sounds awsome
Analog Mike: clearly, a gentleman and a scholar.
Amazing! I really could see exactly where/how my KOT is being made! You guys should win a medal of world guitar legacy !! It’s incredible to realize the effort you’re given to make all of us, anonymous guitar players all over the world, closer!

Well 3 years later, how is it? :D
probably was still waiting at that point, I got on the list 7 days after this video came out, and just received my email for the order this past Monday. 4 years, 4 months, 10 days lol.
This man as a great tee-shirt !!! GILMOUR ACADEMY !!!
Mike has been one of the nicest guys I've ever had the pleasure of emailing. I can't wait to see what magic box he builds for me.
King of Tone just arrived in the mail yesterday! Definitely worth the 1.5 year wait!
Jake de Medeiros it’s the best isn’t it?
Wow...really took 15 months to get it? Dang. I am sure its nice.
a HOW LONG wait?
Alexandre Gallant do what I did. Throw your name up there, set and forget. You’ll still be playing guitar in a year or two, be surprised when your name pops up and there ya go!
I was surprised when my name popped up this week. I can't wait for my KOT to arrive. Justin is right, throw it up there then forget it. :)
That envelope filter sounds amazing!
Mind officially blown, just by Mikes work ethic and the history of how he got to where he is, yes the collection is amazing as well, but the chips and values, the new old stock thinking…man…and the pedals all sound amaze balls! I feel like selling all my pedals just to buy a. Few AM pedals…ahahah
Utterly brilliant, so great to see Mike in the flesh (So to speak!) please, please don't ever change Mr Analogman, seeing 1 guy make those KOT's and then seeing it on my board is worth every penny and every minute spent waiting.
I agree. I own several of his pedals and I have spoken to him multiple times and he has always been great. Thanks Mike!
Mike is a great person, and he only makes the best.
He’s got the same shirt Dave Gilmour wore back live in the 70s. Way cool.
How good the AnalogMan stuff is? I bought a DS1 modded and a Bi-Chorus (stupidly selled after few days ‘cause is not stereo…😢) in a used market in Rome, Italy, and only today, once I took of from the box (yes, I have the box of that DS1 with the “sun” of Mike stamp on it! 😍) I’ve realized how good the DS1 sounds! Thx very much Dan and Mick for this reportage and Mike to being so genius!!❤
When I studied electronics many moon ago, what Mike and his crew are doing is what I envisioned. Alas, I am an industrial electrician. I will be watching this episode more than once.
Did you notice his “Gilmour Academy” T-Shirt when Dan walked in? David used to wear that during the Animals tour.
Awesome guys, I just received my order confirmation for my KOT 2 days ago, and now, your video comes up !!! Perfect timing !!! But now I want a Beano Booster ... :)
I had a chance to try it! Analogman is most probably the best pedal maker when it comes to drive however i’ve put an EP booster next to a beano booster and the EP won big time! Strat/paulie into DRREI and ac15
This is absolutely epic. Thank you guys for allowing us mere mortals to get a first-hand look into stuff like this that we never would have a chance to otherwise. WE'RE NOT WORTHY!!!!!
+B Cascio YES YOU ARE! That’s why we do this stuff. :0)
I'm also fortunate to live within a few minutes of his shop. It was very cool to be able to make an appointment and go in to try out hos pedals in person. I think it is so cool that Dan and Mick made the long trek across the pond for this! Would have loved to have met them!
Agreed, I live nearby in RI ... a meet and greet would have been great.
+Glen Cruciani We would love to do stuff like that, but this trip was super fast there and back. If we weren’t filming, we were driving, flying, sleeping or eating! :0) However, we’ve been overwhelmed at the general response to TPS in the USA, so we’re confident that North America is about to become a more frequent destination. Let’s organise some stuff! Thanks for watching.
Such a great guy ..........
Genuinely fascinated to see where my KOT and Bi-Comprosser came from. Brilliant. Thanks!
Morning: watching the first half of the show. Afternoon: finally getting on the train to the nearest KoT. Evening: playing playing playing. Finishing off with the last part of the show. All of this while waiting for my TPS t-shirts shipment, mostly for supporting your show and thus assuring your journalistic independence. Cheers guys! Love it. Thank you so much.
+Tomsdrawings ah, what a great post. Cheers Tom, that’s awesome :)
TOO PROUD to have at LEAST one of this man's great creations (King of Tone, in White/Gold with some options...love it!)
GREAT VID and interview/tour/gear greatness!!!!
+Chris Kindler cheers Chris :)
Wish I played and had shows and stuff so that pedals would be tools, not merely the toys they are to me now.
Nice to see chops I don't have played through pedals I don't have.
I'm glad just knowing they're out there.
Thanks guys! Always fun to run into Analogman at shows too--he's EVERYWHERE!
So awesome getting to meet Analog Mike! Amazing episode - one to watch several times.
Nothing actually works, but don't let the dream die that one day i will get to all of them and fix them up. This is just what you tend to see with the tinkerer mentality. Such fun.
This video is magical. I've got an Analogman sunlion, and an old Analogman modded ts9 with the silver mod. Mike is doing something special over there! Top quality that you can hear.
I live one town over, in Newtown. Love his King of Tone!
Hands, head, and heart. Truly a work of art.
An instant classic episode! Very enjoyable. Looking forward to the Sun Face feature. Have a BC109 version, that Mike suggested. Great fuzz! Cool guy
Looking forward to my future King Of Tone, as well.
Cheers Mates 🍻🍻
This is my favorite episode and I love D&M’s channel. I have bought many pedals from Analog Mike since 2003 and he has always been cool answering my many questions and getting me what I want. Getting to hear many of his pedals that I have not had the chance to buy is simply fantastic. That envelope filter and compressor.....wow.
Holy crap you were here !!! Wish I stopped by the shop that day
This was such a joy to watch. Thank you guys for putting the time into this!
And relax... all is well with the world once again... hey fellas, nice to see you!
+neuk01642 Hooray!
Sunlion, ARDX20, Phase 90 MOD, Beano Boost, KoT owner here NERDING out watching this! Cheers, boys! Another classic episode!
+Joel Dugger That’s the good stuff right there Joel!
Awesome! Can't wait for part 2!
It's now officially friday.
12 noon here. Been Jonesing all morning. Usually drops around 730AM my time. :D
I mean, it's 5 PM here. It's still not Friday until TPS comes out as far as I'm concerned.
I was worried that I might have to cancel Friday.
2:14 Dan looking in the display case like an eight-year-old in Pets at Home.
This cracked me up. ¨Oh look at you!¨
The sexiest man alive behind the camera? Hair like that deserves to be in front of the camera. ..on a side note I think you just blew up the waiting list for analogman pedals.
Mick ... how many YT accounts do you have?!!!
Kieren Moore a few. ..lol
Yeah that’s a nice filter man that pedal show always making my wish list longer !
+PMTluke yep, sure is :)
I love my AstroTone fuzz the way some people love original Klons or King of Tones. It's a fuzz in a class just so far outside the standard and works perfectly on stage in a mix.
This video was tons of fun. Props to the DS1 as well, very cool that he is promoting such an old pedal -it sounds great with that mod.
I was experimenting with my King of Tone today and I can definitely tell a lot of thought and care was put into that pedal. It's sounds open, detailed and huge. I love it. :D
This explains the recent slow down in KoT production - I'm in the next batch and it's taking an extra week!
+John Coleman Haha! Bless him, Mike is like many committed business owners that we know - simply always working. He was super gracious with his time even though we were totally slowing him down!
I'm not sure which I'm looking forward to more...the KoT or the Fuzz video! Thanks, guys! (P.S. TPS is the reason I'm on the waiting list in the first place)
Maybe you'll see your pedal on this episode :)
He mentions making pedals that were inspired by tones from some of his favourite songs and artists, you guys should definitely create a Spotify playlist of your favs that are the reason why you do what you do everyday! Dan mentioned a while back that he put on a "70's rock" playlist and 'YMCA' was on it... not what he, or anyone else watching this channel is looking for.

I'll admit, at first I was a little less excited than I should have been. After watching and listening, I've been enamored! Those 60fps moments were like butter for my eyes and ears. gorgeous and I can't wait for the next part!
Great video!!! Great idea talk to masters... Mike Analog.man, Keeley ... and others ... who knows guys as M.Fuller, B.Wampler, ZvexMna...and many others... Congratulations! Pedal Show is one of the best of all time!!!
I bought a second hand Beano and wanted some more info on it, i mailed a few pics over to them and within the hour id received an answer on when it was made and where it was first shipped to, fantastic people to deal with. The pedal is definitely a keeper.
This is the great episode on TPS channl, couple of mysteries for builder or player have also been answered by the master Mike, I'm really enjoy it, thanks for the great job.
Wowww... and suddenly... i am just a child staring the Candy's Museum... AnalogMan is superMan...
six years later and i have so much more appreciation for the doll on the shelf 1:06
Now I see why it takes approx. 4 years to get a new King of Tone pedal , one cat putting one together at a time ..
Wow! Just Wow! I've been waiting 2 years on the list for my King Of Tone. Amazing to see them being built. The lore! Thanks!
Daniel Roberts you might want to check the waiting list, 2 years is longer then most people have had to wait. If there shipping pedals ordered after you just give them an email and they will make yours.
I just checked my email history. My request was dated 5/2016 so really only 1.5 years. I wasn't complaining though. Base on their website I might be hearing from them in 2 months. :)
Loving this!! Can't wait for part 2! And ohh...just bought the Boss DS-1 with mid range mod. Thanks That Pedal Show!!
So glad you guys were able to show us the world of Analogman and how they operate. Amazing stuff! Very happy this is a two-parter as well!
+Barry Provost Cheers Barry! It was a pleasure and an education being there. :0)
Amazing visit, thank you for that!
The pride of all gearheads (such as myself) here in CT! Awesome video once again, gents!
Fascinating from start to finish. Looking forward to Pt. 2. Thanks, guys!
Pirelli floorings on pedals. Takes me back to the old Marquee Club in Wardour St, the floor was made of that stuff. Stays safe when covered in beer!
Great show! I just got my KOT last month, after a year and a half wait! Mike is great answering emails and questions! It was so cool seeing his work shop and were my KOT was made! Thanks guys for the tour of Analogman's magic workshop. Mike is an amazing pedal maker and has great customer service!
+Mike Klean cheers Mike, yep, he’s a legend
I’ve been waiting for this one. It seems like Mike is writing Thanks on the bottom of an invoice every couple weeks for me.
+Scott West Lucky man! His stuff is soooo good.
That Pedal Show It is AMAZING!! I wish luck was all it was, hard work is more like it. I was talking to him a couple months ago about getting a GigRig G2....he hasn’t gotten any in stock yet.
I got my 1st king of tone last week. A truly inspirational pedal.
One of your best episodes. Great to hear from the makers. Time for you lads to pay a visit to Mr. Wampler
I was wondering how long the wait time would be for pedals and here is what I found from Analog Man's website:
"No Delays on almost all pedals!
Most pedals we sell are in stock and ready to ship! These items will usually ship the business day after your order. There is no delay on pedals you send in for mods, those get top priority as we don't want people to be without their pedals for long. Usually mods take only a few days, often one day. Modified new pedals like Boss and Ibanez usually ship one to two days after the order as they are modified to your specs. Chorus pedals, Compressors, Beano Boosts, and Peppermint Fuzzes are custom made to order due to the many options, so are taking from a day to a week.
Sunfaces are about a week or so to build to your specs.
The King Of Tone is the only pedal that has a waiting list now, and the list is long but getting shorter. KoT list is explained on the KoT Delay page. Prince Of Tone pedals are usually available on Wednesdays but you can try any time. We completed the Bicomp list in May 2012!
RMC wahs have been backed up but we are getting them in more regularly now, see my RMC page for current status. If you order a wah elsewhere, MAKE SURE they have it in stock as some dealers may not be as honest about availability. Most other pedals like Strobostomp, Boss, Xotic, MXR, Voodoo lab, Black Cat, T Rex, Bad Bob, EHX, Z Vex, Ernie Ball, MXR, Dunlop, etc should be on the shelf ready to ship the business day after we get your order. Feel free to ask before placing an order to be sure, or if you are in a rush. THANKS!!!"
I have always loved AnalogMan, but now I love them even more. I'm going to order a Sun Bender right after I watch this video.
Wearing a Keeley D&M Drive t-shirt to an AnalogMan interview. Savage. 😂😂😂😂
Add several years to Analogman’s wait list.... Thanks Dan and Mick.
Mike’s a great guy - I met him and picked up a SunFace at the old New York Amp Show (in Piscataway, NJ, natch) back when the blessed Frankenstrat2 was still alive. This were the days alright............... Pete.
Change “This” to Those”, of course.
+ptrisonic Mike’s the best, really honoured to have him on the show
Love Analogman! Got to get me some!❤
This an amazing experience with the anolog man .
Really we need more of this .
I got worried when there wasn't a Friday video... *puts down panic paper bag*
That's what I call pedal cupboards !!! Pressed play & spooky I had that exact same Gilmour 63 tee on ....
I had no idea he was in Connecticut! Anyways, I'm on the waiting list, but I couldn't wait and recently purchased a KoT. It has high gain on both sides and a toggle on the Red side. I was hesitant to go high gain at all, but I'm so glad I did. There is plenty of range on the volume and drive controls. I find I get everything I need between 12 and 2 o' clock, and the toggle is very nice to have. It certainly is a fine overdrive and I have, or have had, many drive pedals. Mine's blue by the way, gorgeous!
Wow. If I had gotten on the list after this came out I would have a King of Tone now. 😂
Man alive.... Mike's the coolest dude in CT, no question. Got a sunface coming soon and I could not be more excited. Gotta get that envelope filter next! Thanks again and again guys!
+Marc Eaton yeah, Mike really is an amazing human
Now that was a great video ... AnalogMan's shop looks exactly as I hoped it would ... the lair of the genius! I live in RI ... 15 minutes from the CT border. Wish I new you guys were coming over. Should do more of this type video, well done.
Thankyou Mike, Mick and Dan. cheers ( i'm speechless )
Love Analogman's stuff. My SunFace is a treasure.
+trushack Dan here, mine is too
great episode, Mike is the nicest man you could ever hope to deal with. I bought a shinei companion fuzz when I was a youngster and didn't understand why it sounded terrible through my 100w laney transistor combo, I just thought fuzz was terrible Now I'm using decent valve amps I cant believe how good my Analogman Sunface and Beano Boost pedals sound. I've learnt so much about amps and pedals from your brilliant show, thank you again!
+robbieredball ah, cheers Rob, you’re very welcome :)
For posterity, let it be known that TPS is my stress reliever for the 2020 USA election.
Ha! You and many others we suspect. Did the old white guy win?
Awesome show! I've been looking forward to this one for a while. I had no idea AnalogMan was such a sweet guy. And that envelope filter sounded spectacular!
+John Marquez He really is. It was fascinating to get an insight into his world. Explains so much, in an entirely good way. Cheers and thanks for watching!
haha just started todays show, I'm a big fan so I hope you guys see the funny side. You know it's that pedal show when the knobs emerge haha. I didn't mean the guys. The intro, white knobs on the orange pedal haha. Love the show guys
+Andrew Lock Wahey!
There used to be a company, from Texas, I believe, called Paia or something like that. My stepdad bought me a pedal kit, an envelope filter, to make when I was 13. It was my introduction to soldering, and working on my own gear.
That's the best envelope filter I've ever heard.
Seconded.
