Biffbox is a new and unique builder of boutique / custom guitar effects pedals based in the U.K..

As of May 2012 only 20 have been produced. Biffbox pedals are individual, one of a kind guitar pedals housed within handbuilt cases, each one epoxy enhanced, oven cured, and lacquer finished. As you can see the final pedals are remarkable.

Each pedal is individually customised with parts from cars, bicycles and more xe2x80x93 the badges from the donor machines fixed onto the pedal. The results are some of the best looking effects pedals out there right now.

At the moment Biffboxxe2x80x99s unique valve housings include Derailleur, Caliper brake, freewheel, chain, seatclamp and hub components bastardised from bicycles. The overall effect is of a guitar pedal that means business.

Beneath the steampunk, Gotham city stylings of the Biffbox pedals lie some very serious xe2x80x9cmechanicsxe2x80x9d:

xe2x80x98Truexe2x80x99 point-to-point handwired high voltage ( 24 Volt) valve pre-amps,
Silver soldered, cross wire designs built around 12AX7 tubes with true bypass.

:lol:

unless they've misplaced a decimal point, that's not high voltage. Not my intent of casting a disparaging light on the build itself, but the marketing department needs to lay off the artificial stimulants.
When in doubt, add resistance.
