Selling: BBE Blacksmith

Letting this under-used BBE Blacksmith distortion go. It's in 7.5/10 condition, box included as seen above. There used to be velcro on the baseplate which had been removed. Still fighting unemployment & full recovery (highly unlikely but won't go down without a fight):

BSmith

Still in distortion mood. The previous owner of the above-depicted Blacksmith pedal thought this is a heavy metal type but it's not. It's just a distortion unit bordering on the DS-1 performance, maybe a little more foreboding in certain settings. The Blacksmith name & its black presence might imply heavy metal intensity but it's not as biting as it's intended to be. I don't mind giving it a second chance. A distortion unit with a 3-band EQ will always be my thing.

Re-BBE

Starting the weekend with a rather welcomed piece of news; BBE has re-introduced the Sonic Stomp & Green Screamer pedals as seen above.

For those of us who are a little unacquainted to the BBE brand name, know that they used to be around once upon a time. These pedals were distributed by the defunct Wood Works store at Excelsior SC (later moved to Peninsula Plaza before shutting down). 

Let's see who would bring this in here because IMO, the current generation of players are ready to be acquainted to the BBE name once more. They have re-manifested the dimensions conforming to typical pedal board size demand & kept the design appealing. Personally, I prefer the graphics-less version but that's just an old man wishing things would revert to what worked without the frills. 

Sonic Stomp reduction

BBE now offers the Sonic Stomp in a mini version as depicted above. Stacked control knobs mean it retains its previous sonic manipulation. MSRP: USD100

BBE: Two-Timer

• I'm not a delay fan but this BBE Tw0-Timer is too tempting to ignore...

• The pedal allows the user to operate 2 delay types simultaneously; this should conjure some psychedelic moments for all you atmospherics geek with all the analog goodness to boot.

• The idea here isn't fresh though, even the manufacturer admitted getting major inspiration from the discont'd BOSS DM-2...
