Title: Fripp's Buzzaround, $35,000????

I tend to keep an eye on ridiculous eBay sales for fuzz pedals.  This one takes the cake.

I'm guessing this dude means Robert Fripp not Gilmour... The buzzaround was sort of Fripp's thing for the first 3 KC albums..... Still fucking retarded.

So a shade under $12,000 per transistor, what a bargain ;D

If anyone wants one, I can be commissioned to build them for a mere $10,000 and I'll even throw in the battery ;D

I would however require a 50% deposit before any work was undertaken.

If you really cared about the customer, you'd supply a nearly dead 9v to get that starved sound people crave.

It certainly is clean.  I skimmed the listing, but how does the seller certify who's pedal it was when he won't even name the guy?

Yeah, he obviously wants people to think Fripp or Gilmour, but it could just as easily be some guy who no-one has actually heard of, that this guy is deeming a 'legend', and who made a couple of albums, a couple of guys in my dad's old garage made some albums, but they certainly weren't legends.

So fuzz pedal, owned by some guy in the 60's, who made a couple of prog rock records.

The scary thing is, someone will buy it :-X

Judas was the guitar player, fits the character. Gzus was the drummer, Simon Peter played bass.

So Gzus don't own no stinking fuzz pedal, plus the whole problem of transistors being invented in 1925 kinda fucks up your claim ;D

jesus is a time travelling mofo, he is not bound by time and space, neither was his pyschadelic music.

Plus your date is not entirely correct in that sense that a transistor didnt physically exist to 1947 even tho schematics had been drawn up in 1925

Once he had schematics, Gzus could build whatever the fuck he wanted, but as a drummer had no interest in motherfucking fuzz pedals.
