Very well played, chromandre! 8-)

Now the last two ones have to be guessed by someone else. There are only the pedals left that our Admin and I sent to each other. With our Canadian friends the tour had been a bit more mixed.


Image Admin received a pedal from Pepe
received: 24th December

Image chromandre received an Arion SFC-1 Fat Chorus from Joske Turbo
received: 20th December, guessed by: Pepe

Image Dirk received a Guyatone MOm5 Micro Octaver from fuzzbuzzfuzz
received: 28th December, guessed by: Pepe

Image fuzzbuzzfuzz received an Ibanez SF10 Swell Flanger from Dirk
received: 25th December, guessed by: Pepe

Image Joske Turbo received a Behringer UV-300 Ultra Vibrato from chromandre
received: 26th December, guessed by: fuzzbuzzfuzz

Is it the Ibanez SF10 Swell Flanger? This one has offset switching, but four knobs!
Oops you are correct Pepe!!😁

My apologies I somehow got the knob amount incorrect 😱
Ohhh...... I know this pedal. It has a back story.
Ah! I found the thread about the SF10. Now I remember the back story.

Fat Chorus... Why does it seem SO OBVIOUS now!

Nice clues by the way!

At least you can count to three! :P

Since some of us might remember that he received the SF10 in a previous tour, I think it's not a big thing to reveal that Dirk was the secret Santa of fuzzbuzzfuzz. And vice versa. I hope that both of you are pleased with the pedal swap. Dirk as a bass player might have lots of fun with the octaver, I'm sure. 8-)

received: 24th December

Image chromandre received an arguably rare three-knobbed Japanese pedal that has something to do with Weird Al Yankovic and his "Bad" parody from ?
received: 20th December

Image Dirk received a Guyatone MOm5 Micro Octaver from fuzzbuzzfuzz
received: 28th December, guessed by: Pepe

It's the first time to have a Swell Flanger for me and they are comparatively rare over here (in Japan!) so I was pleased to receive it. Thanks Dirk!

We know for sure it has been:
- Japan (manufacture)
- Mexico (via the USA? ... we'll never know)
- Canada (for some R&R ... repair and reconditioning)
- Netherlands
- back to Japan...

I remember you menitonning that some pedal was held at customs for months because it did not have proper paperwork. Could it be the case again?

That's why I told every participant who was going to ship a pedal to Europe to attach a separate customs letter on the outside of the parcel. I hope that my parcel was only held up by the holidays.
