Idea:  Paint the pedal all white.  Label it in unexciting black letters: "GUITAR PEDAL".  Add a UPC to it.



I like this idea for a pedal I am making for someone!  Maybe something like this?

I build.  I fix.  I fix again.  And again.  And yet again.  (sometimes again once more).  Then I have something that works! (Most of the time!).

Thanks guys for all the wonderful inspiration!!  I'm going to bookmark this thread for future reference!

Since we didn't seem to really zero in on a particular single name.... I chose "Double Trouble" as my choice.. it got 3 votes.  Great because I am a huge SRV fan, and my sweetie is a Texan.  It works.  Everybody gets a sausage!!

I made the order to fabrication this morning.. started ordering parts.  I should be ready to build out the prototype in a couple of weeks, and I will check back in on this project then!

Cheers!  Thanks again!!  You guys are great.

I love it.  For bonus points, use the UPC of an actual product.  If it is a clone of a commercial pedal, find the UPC of that pedal.  Or, pick an unusual or funny product.  :icon_wink:

Oh, and use all capital letters.  Looks more authentically generic.

Thanks for that, Mark.  I've listened to the first 2:30 of that. Don't know why.  Couldn't stop sooner.  I'm probably not well.

I liked the Ring Slosh Baffle. Sounds like something that public toilets should be equipped with.

I'd be truly surprised if Spaceman Effects hadn't gotten to that first.

I LOVE this! What a concept--generic authenticity, or is that authentic genericity.

Yes, it is sort of like, "Be unique, just like everyone else."  :icon_razz:
