From what I understand, Dano + Foxx were related companies in their early days, which explains why they are capable of cloning the original so well.

But I think this "Wooly Mammoth" business is probably just coincidental if it's actually stated in one of their manuals.


Anyway, I now own TEN Danelectro pedals, and it really sucks because my FT is the *only* one that's slightly dysfunctional... Something like a bad solder joint on one of the jacks that causes it to occasionally break out in an annoying hissing sound until I knock it a little. BAH.

I love the sound, though. Need to try it on bass then.

Steve Ridinger created the Tone Machine in 1971 and he is now the president of Dan Electro...that's the connection.

I had thought it was the new cool cat fuzz, but I could be wrong!
