Hey Jwar, can you put that in your signature so newcomers know what they're getting in to? :idk:

Damn, my take away from this thread is that there actually might be more batches of SC stuff. This is huge IMO, I thought it was done for sure.

I have a Hollow Earth, it is awesome. I passed up buying an Anti Nautilus (or rather tried to negotiate the price down) and missed it. Still want to kill myself over it lol.

I still have gas for the Hollow Earth and that one vibrato concept he put out, but the Anti Nautilus has been outclassed many times already. :idk: Not that I wouldn't love to try one, but I wouldn't pay top dollar for it anymore.

Have you played one? I understand the sentiment that there are many other options on the market now compared to 8 or 9 years ago but the Anti Nautilus is unique among all the pedals in the genre. If you haven't actually used one I can see how you would think its similar to everything else though.

You just don't get it do you? You can't ask someone to build you this. This is a mans masterpiece.
If you had been paying attention you would have noticed an emerging new kind of pedal.
Through the duck tape, booby traps and chaos you would have glimpsed the true nature behind John Schumann's original design.
This is the very pedal that caused him to give up building after completing only a few units.
Years ago, I remember hearing a customer sent his Pll back for repair and after 3 months of waiting received an unusual email.
I am not lying when I tell you this. It was revealed that Schumann, who had never kept a Pll for himself, had over the
years forgotten the design and fell in love with the customers pedal, attempting to run off with it.

This is not the mark of a regular builder. You see, I've encountered few pedals like this.
Each pedal is a meticulous labor of love. It's eccentric genius cannot be held to the same standard as a regular boutique.
It is the pinnacle of unobtainium. A boutique boutique where the builder has poured his very soul into what he is creating to
the point it transcends itself and becomes art. This is the shit legends are made of.

You do not understand what's happening. To simply have someone else build you one is an insult to this mans art.
If you don't appreciate it enough build your own interpretation then you do not understand what is it, you cannot comprehend what you
are playing and you don't deserve it.
Copypasta jokes aside, would you pay $2000 for a original Schummann PLL now that all of the amazing takes on the circuit exist? Maybe if you wanted it for the historical (lol) value rather than just the sound. :idk:

I can get my random buffer/"virtual tape" effects well enough now, so my gas for the anti-nautilus is all but dead. Same with the Schumann once the data corrupter was out now that I think about it, and this is counting all of the pllones I've had over the years.
