ahpook Posted October 12 Share Posted October 12 Anyone know where's the best place to buy DemonFX stuff in the UK? Affordaboard seem to have been very light on stock for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted October 12 Share Posted October 12 It would be difficult to make it look any less like a Tonehammer, their designers must have worked really hard on that aspect…….. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PinkMohawk Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 Honestly, I kind of respect how little they care about opening themselves up to copyright infringement or whatever the proper term is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewblack Posted October 21 Share Posted October 21 I've asked Affordaboard and he's in touch with DFX about the Tone Hammer clone. Hopefully we'll have some pricing information soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eude Posted November 6 Share Posted November 6 2 minutes ago, Sibob said: Nothing like supporting counterfeit goods is there 💪 Si To be fair, I think anyone who would buy a real one can be pretty confident this knock off won't bring the goods. It will be a preamp, a DI and a dirt pedal, for those on a budget, but if you only have £60 to spend, you would never be buying a proper Aggie one anyway. I think these guys should just do their own thing, by all means take influence for the guts, plenty of others do, but surely coming up with their own style and then applying it across their range shouldn't be that tricky? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's their USP the silly names, the matching cases Anyway your point is the point. I am not splashing out hundreds of pounds I don't have to just try something. I don't pride myself on the labels on anything I own and would rather buy five 60 quid pedal than one with a name on it. I have no idea if these pedals are remotely similar to the originals and I'll never know because I won't be buying the originals any time soon. If my choice of pedal upsets you then I'm truly sorry. I never buy an effect pedal with the aim of hurting someone's feelings. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LukeFRC Posted November 6 Share Posted November 6 The middle aisle of pedals. I bet it sounds almost identical - I think it would be as harder to design your own pedal with similar features than do a direct copy 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glassmoon Posted November 13 Share Posted November 13 I am sooooooooooo tempted. I owned an Aguilar TH for a while and loved it. Still bummed that I let it go - and still trying to remember what brain fart led to that decision! And the fact that for £9 more, I can get it in the UK and not have the fear of it never arriving from AliExpress world (I've heard horror stories). Having said that... I'd really love to see a video or hear a demo of this one... and A/B would be perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
