This is a work in progress. We're striving to create a continually growing and expanding music and gear related resource that will continue to grow and expand as we continue to expand upon in. Watch it grow!

Stomp Stuff
Here’s a list of stompbox related websites you can visit:


Analog Man
This, of course, is the first place you should visit.

For Musicians Only YouTube Channel
This is where we'll be posting vintage effects pedal demo videos and other fun stuff!

The Unofficial Home of Loco Box
Web Designer/graphic artist Jaimie Muehlhausen made this website dedicated to the very obscure (but cool) Japanese brand of effects. Jaimie also designed the groovy looking For Musicians Only logo.

Japanese Vintage BIZARRE Effect Site
Hosted by my collector friend, TIX.

I Paint Pedals
Hannah Haugberg is a painter for Z Vex Effects. Check out her pedal blog.

Disco Freq’s FX Site
Really cool site originally dedicated to envelope filters and auto wahs… the funkier side of effects.

Altered Sounds
A whole website dedicated to stomp effects. How cool is that?

Mode Zero
This site focuses on modulation type effects – mostly phasers and flangers. Lots of pictures and sound samples.

A/DA Depot
Everything you want to know about A/DA gear.

The Unofficial Tel-Ray Page
A website dedicated to Tel-Ray oilcan delays.

Binson Echorec Homepage

Repairs
I’m currently in the process of assembling a network of skilled local technicians that can handle repairs on vintage effects, keyboards, and other assorted electronic gizmos. If you have something that needs repair, or have an idea for some custom work, send us an email and we’ll see if we can do it. Or, I may be able to refer you to another qualified expert.
 
Howard Davis
You could also try contacting former Electro-Harmonix engineer Howard (Mick) Davis. Howard designed many all-time classic EHX effects, and is now available to do any and all effects repairs. If it’s analog and it’s broken, Howard can fix it.

 

 

DIY Effects
Do-It-Yourself effects building is the biggest growing trend in the effects scene. Scores of musicians are wielding soldering irons to see if they can build their own, personalized stompbox. If you want to get in on the action, here are some links to help.

DIY Parts & Supplies:

Small Bear Electronics
Steve Daniels is the unsung hero of today’s DIY effects scene. He has created an entire business dedicated to supplying parts to people who want to build their own effects. There’s a great interview with Steve (perhaps the first and only one) in Analog Man's Guide To Vintage Effects.

DIY Info:
Okay, so I wrote a book about effects. I guess that makes me the expert. But as far as what makes these things tick… well, I’m a musician, not an engineer. If you want that kind of info, I highly recommend the sites listed below.
