EU pedals? (lemm.ee)

Hi all,

New to Lemmy here, but I like what I’m seeing here! I came in the spirit of moving to buy things from the EU rather than the US and in that vein, I thought I’d start thinking about pedals. Over the past year I’ve been building a pedalboard that I’m quite happy with so far, but the 2/3 of the next pedals I have my eyes on in the long-term are from the US. I was wondering if anyone might have suggestions as to where/what to look for.

I am looking for alternatives either from the EU, or elsewhere other than the US for:

-Low-gain “transparent” overdrive (I was looking at the JHS morning glory)

-phaser pedal (I had been looking at the phase 95 for form factor and I like the phase 45 sound especially)

-a compressor pedal (I did not have anything in particular in mind here, yet).

I won’t buy all these at once, or even in the mediate future most likely, but as i become able to do so, it’s nice to have some ideas in mind.

Any and all advice is appreciated!

@zagreas You're welcome. I've started a wiki page with a list of EU manufacturers and builders: https://monasfx.com/links/eupedals

Ah nice!

I found a big list recently and could add a bunch if you like? I could dm them to you (not sure if it’s possible to edit that page you linked)

@zagreas Oh that's awesome! If you could send me a DM that would be great! I can edit that page as MonasFX is my electronics hobby project.

Of course, I’ll DM you now!
