This. Fingers crossed it's the EGDM. My personal guess would be the DRD though.

Is this legal? HoneyBees made in the USA with non-chipping paint? This ain't natural. :sick:











In no way am I insulting Donner. It is just so...so... sudden! :shock:

as Bjorn said we will just wait until any new model is ready to release it, no BS 6 month build up chain yanking .... 8)


well it might SEEM sudden, but we've been working on this for real for 2 years and had to start over a couple times to get it all just right....

but yes the top coats are done by the same guy that does all the customshop/research runs so they will look sharp and be durable - but they can still be chipped just like your car paint can ....

they are handwired on US PCBs from Bjorns' schematics and parts choices... I think you all will be pleased 8)

But Donner, how are you going to build up a buzz about the pedal if there is no year long waiting list? :P

It is actually exciting on one hand so more people can get the real deal and not some JHS clone :clown It will be nice to have a second HBOD to take to jams since I feel there will come a time that BJFE pedals will be unobtainable. Kinda like the PGC & Model G :banghead I also never bonded with the Mad Professor dirt and lets just say other manufacturers of dirt just dont sound or feel right anymore.

Can you give us a hint yet as to how affordable the BearFoot HBODs will bee? We can get the line started here and roll it over to TGP with the buzz of a waiting list!
