pedal builder posting rules?

Post by MelWaldorf » Wed Nov 10, 2021 10:08 am

I'm curious what the rules are regarding showing off / introducing new pedals? I build fuzzes in short runs (6-8 pedals) which is commercial to an extent, so is it ok to post about them here or does that belong in the for sale section?

Thanks, Mel

Should go in the for sale area.

I would think that if you're just showing something cool you did, it could be in the DIY thread, but if you're actually selling it, then it needs to go in the For Sale sub-category.

Yeah, it's been done this way for a long time. There's other people that do the same thing and it seems to work well.
I bought my first (of many) Fredric FX boxes from a member (Timhulio) who did exactly this. As long as it's all kept in its separate areas then I dont see the mods having any issue.

Oh, and that JM is cool as fuck
