Members seifukusha Posted June 21, 2008 Members Share Posted June 21, 2008 I dont see anything on them about made in china (the adapter is, but). Are they USA made and it seems the chips inside are done by them as well. Can anyone confirm this? thx J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members tommyld Posted June 22, 2008 Members Share Posted June 22, 2008 I even took some time to dig around their website yesterday...couldn't find anything!! They're "located" in California, but that's their "headquarters," not necessarily where they're made. They've also got offices in Tokyo, Korea, China, and Europe. "Sony, Panasonic, LG, Samsung, Philips and many others, feature BBE technologies in products such as televisions, mobile phones, car audio and personal audio systems." So BBE is bigger than I realized and does a lot of "licensing." Wonder if they make their pedals, license them to some other company, or if they are branded BBE...but who knows where they're made?

Members Jenesis Posted June 22, 2008 Members Share Posted June 22, 2008 Good question. No place of manufacture on the pedal, box or instructions. Hmmm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members seifukusha Posted June 22, 2008 Author Members Share Posted June 22, 2008 i looked around as well. nothing. no markings on the box or anything. If it was MIC, wouldnt they have to say that. Dont most things MIC? Im wondering if the chips are homegrown in the US by BBE? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RexKeltoi Posted February 7, 2013 Members Share Posted February 7, 2013 They are designed in Cal. and manufactured in China unfortunately, I have contacted BBE. It could be the reason for the heavy industrial (or as some people havereferred to on YT toxic ) smell of the rubber base, during my years in QC for a technology company we noticed this is the usual case with a lot of parts from China. Here is the e-mail response to your question.Hello,All of the BBE line of pedals are designed here in the US by our engineer and manufactured in China. If you have any further questions please email me back. BBE/G&L Guitars5381 Production Dr.Huntington Beach Ca. 92649714-897-6766 ex.116 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members brokenfixed Posted February 7, 2013 Members Share Posted February 7, 2013 Yeah if they're not writing it all over the box then you can assume China as default.You dont go looking for USA in fine print. That goes for pretty much anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
