Members Screenery Posted November 8, 2007 Members Share Posted November 8, 2007 I am considering buying a used pedal from tonefrenzy.com. Is it still a legitimate site? Their website says "1999-2004", which seems mildly archaic to me, they don't have their phone numbers or address anywhere on the site, and I can't find any recent (2006 or 2007) purchaser's reviews here or anywhere on the net. All these guys are from 2005 or earlier:http://acapella.harmony-central.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1122693&highlight=tonefrenzy Does anyone have experience buying from them lately?

Members Screenery Posted November 20, 2007 Author Members Share Posted November 20, 2007 This situation with tonefrenzy is feeling sketchier with every passing day. It has been 12 days now since I ordered an Electro-Harmonix hotfoot from tonefrenzy.com, and I have not received the Hotfoot yet, nor a tracking number, nor any emails from Jeff, except an automated one sent immediately after I placed my order, that said the following plus my order info:"We will be in touch as soon as possible about your order, the details of which are as follows:"... Twelve days does not qualify as "as soon as possible," IMO. If anyone, such as ZVex, has Jeff's contact info could you please give him a call and remind him about my order, or give me his contact info, other than his email addresses (mrjeffdeeATyahooDOTcom or jeffATtonefrenzyDOTcom)?

Members M900 Posted November 20, 2007 Members Share Posted November 20, 2007 I'm sorry you're running into some issues with Jeff Dee. I bought my ZV Machine and a Boston Strangler attenuator from him several years ago, and he was very helpful. I hope this gets sorted out soon and you get your pedal. c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members newstrat60 Posted November 20, 2007 Members Share Posted November 20, 2007 I've never bought from him, but I used to visit his website very often when i entered pedaldom, and it was the best web site for that : trippy and helpfull (funny atricles, great clips : the Klon clip is the best i've heard ever, and no, its not a sweaty bluesy riff). not hard to read beetween the line that the guy is passionate, knows to write and has great music taste.

That's why I bought my Machine from him -- I felt that I owed him my business after using so much of his bandwidth checking out pedals. c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members newstrat60 Posted November 20, 2007 Members Share Posted November 20, 2007 where is it? cant see it on the site? It's in the "Audio Demos" part of the site, almost everything is there http://www.tonefrenzy.com/effects/zvex_effects_machine.html Edit : I love this part, about the sound of the Machine, and the metal heads guys, brilliant !, zvex should'have use this to be understood from the trolls againts the BOM : "OK: Ever see a dog really attack something? Ever have one of those little bastards bite you? Once they're satisfied their teeth have penetrated your soft flesh; enough to do real damage, they shake their heads hard, and fast: instinctually anticipating the taste of BLOOD: ARRRRRRGGRR! GRRRRhhh! GHHHHhhggh! (We thought a few Metal Heads might be checking this particular write-up, we wanted to have a little something to make you guys feel at home, and welcome)!

Members Knowdice Posted December 10, 2007 Members Share Posted December 10, 2007 UPDATE: Received my Hot-foot, in good condition. Thanks Jeff! Glad everything worked out. I traded Jeff a Hot-foot for a Fuzz Factory a few years ago. Jeff was great to deal with. I loved the HF with my Electric Mistress and on a DMM. Great pedal. Hope you like it!
