Hello Friend! Hope your doing well this week! We've been really busy with the website the past few days-you might've noticed yet another facelift! Also added to the site is a do it yourself page that will tell you how to mod your pedals yourself, and you can buy the parts through me if you'd like-I buy a ton of stuff every week or so, so I get the parts fairly cheap.

Also, let me know what pedal mods you'd like to see on the site-if you have a pedal laying around that your not using, let me know if you'd like me to mod it for FREE! I won't take every pedal I'm offered, of course, but there are quite a few pedals I'd like to get my hands on and try to work out some killer mods on them!

Keep on rockin'! Brian
