View Article  New MT-2 soundclip from Phil Hilborne - "try and count the notes!"

View Article  Beware misleading prices that need postage and VAT adding

In response to several questions from customers I checked into advertised pricing of Robert Keeley pedals and found some potentially confusing "special offers" out there on the web that initially appear to be rather cheap.  And they would be too - if you didn't have to add postage and VAT to them.  The fact that the headline price shown to suck you in is much lower than you'll actually pay is typically explained in tiny type somewhere and you sometimes don't even get shown your total when you checkout either so who knows what will actually be charged to your credit card?

For your convenience all our prices are your REAL TOTAL UK price - you don't need to add anything to them - the price you see on our web pages is always the DELIVERED (by Royal Mail Special Delivery, fully insured, overnight) price within the UK.  EU customers add £3.95 postage once no matter how many pedals are in the order.  Simple.

View Article  George L's patch cable - top tips on assembly

I've been asked the same things a few times now so it's time to post something on the blog:

1. When assembling George L's cables with right-angle plugs, screw the cap down until it bottoms out.  It MUST be screwed all the way down until it's metal-to-metal else you run the risk of poor contact and of it working loose over time.

2. The best tool I've found for cutting George L's cable of either .155" or .225" size is a pair of pet nail/claw clippers.  The best model of clippers I've found is made by Mikki, model 6275-154 and costs around £5.  I will be stocking these later this year.
