Our Story

The business is currently a one-man operation run solely by yours truly, Max Moote. I started this business by diving into it head first with zero experience. I taught myself all about electronics and started building guitar pedals in my parent’s basement. I started to gain traction in my local community, mainly selling pedals to friends and friends of friends, until eventually people I didn’t even know started asking me to build them pedals. I quickly started getting into online sales and now I’ve shipped many pedals all around the globe. I have since completed a B.A. in music performance with a minor in physics, and a B.Ed. to become a high school music and physics teacher. Now I’m building guitar pedals in my tiny laundry room because my wife won’t let me convert the spare bedroom into a pedal workshop. One day I hope to upsize my workshop to a small shed, and eventually maybe a garage but now I think I’m just dreaming!

The Business

The core collection are the main products that I am continuously working to develop and will keep in stock regularly. I have designed them for versatility and durability. They are hand-wired and finished by me completely in-house, and not a single one leaves my hands before being tested and perfected.

I also offer a one-of-a-kind Custom Shop service that allows you to have a creative voice in the effects design process. I believe this service in particular is what makes me stand apart from other pedal companies. You can pitch to me all of your wildest imaginations of guitar pedal creations and I will do everything I can to help you get the sound you need. Check out our gallery if you want some inspiration!

On top of that, If you have any old effects that you want to bring back to life or take to the next level, I offer a variety of modifications & repairs that you can learn more about through the Mods Shop and Repairs Shop pages. I offer modifications through our Wiring Mods page for guitar and bass as well!

In addition to building effects pedals, I teach music lessons on a variety of instruments and topics to musicians anywhere in the world online via video call as well as in-person in the Thunder Bay area.
