all pieces are exquisitely created by hand, one piece at a time, using only the finest materials. It is therefore quite difficult if not impossible to make identical items. That’s the beauty of a quality handmade pedal. These are what make each piece of a handmade pedal charming and unique. Those little imperfections that define beauty is something you won't find in your standard 'of the mill' pedal. In Bad Pixel we find them to be part of the process and contribute to the quality of a pedal made by a human hand!!!
BECAUSE
we love guitar pedals and all pedals are firstly made to fulfill our need of building them. We see guitar effect pedals as the medium to express ones uniqueness and communicate their music. We love vintage effects and we like to replicate them. Good sound was proven for ages played through these devices. We adore their sound and build our clones emphasizing on the best quality and added features that we think can improve the overall experience of the effect.
Also an artistic expression is of first importance. Life is too short to be boring. Nevertheless we all are different and in a way we want things we choose, to mean something and move our souls. Mass production is failing to provide that uniqueness to an item. I want my creations to reflect parts of my self.
INSIDE THE PEDALS
our method of building pedals that do not utilize boards is unique. The components are all soldered one to another. This cannot be done without painstaking attention to detail. Many hours are devoted to the building process in each step. But in the end the result is in between art and construction. We take our time to gather NOS, USSR components, as for the capacitors and transistors we use. Those military spec electronics are the highest quality. They are sonically excellent and very reliable. Those classic fuzz and drive circuits benefit greatly from this construction method. A clean and elegant circuitry is the base to great sound. And this is what we pursue with each and every pedal. We never settle but for the best.
WE ALSO BUILD PEDALS
using all ALPHA brand potentiometers to ensure years of satisfaction. Neutrik high quality jacks -only- for input / output. Of course we use Hammond aluminum die cast enclosures. We take our time finding the best materials from well respected suppliers so we end up with and amazingly designed and perfectly constructed top notch piece of equipment.
ONLY FUZZ AND OVERDRIVE [BOOST] HERE
no more / not less. We love fuzz and overdrive. Those classic recreations are built with care. Those effects are the first ones in your chain and we will be there for you. The first steps of shaping your tone is our job. When you get a defined signal from one of our pedals you can curry on your journey. Field expertise is something to cherish these days. It is easy to build everything in a mediocre way. But devoting the time to achieve a constant high standard of quality is not that easy. But we took the time and here we are. We have devoted our ears and minds to those classic sounds and this way you can be more than sure that here you will find the best sounding fuzzes and drives.

Important notice: all effects are played through various equipment for a significant amount of time to be tested and perfected. Only through by this kind of testing you get perfect tuned quality sound equipment!!!!!
