  • I noticed 2 of these pedals at the Burns booth at the Musikmesse (2009):
    • They're prototypes of a reissue of the Buzzaround, made by Gary Hurst. Gary Hurst is best known as the designer of the Tone Bender MkI, but he also designed a lot of keyboards for companies like Crumar, Elka, Imperial,... and pedals for his own company Electronic Sounds, which were also sold under the name CBS-Arbiter.
    • The prototype cases look like the Elka Dizzy Tone fuzz, but the final version will probably use the original housing.
      (but someone should use this enclosure too, it's cool!!!).
  • the JMI site:
