Are all those with Andertons the signed by Pete ones?

yes. He signed and wrote a quip in 200. 125 went to andertons, 75 went to riff city... the signed ones include a piece of danish memorabilia, some lego and a custom signature danish pete Pick.

Cool, gonna get one ordered

Anyone got theirs today? Anyone stuck in front of a tweedy amp? Mine is arriving tomorrow but with a full-on day and late finish there will be no playing in the eve. Properly looking forward to this one.

Mine came yodaybit haven't had a chance to try it yet. Not sure if mine is signed or not, only had time for a quick look.
Handsome pedal though.

Well 20 mins turned into an hour. Haven’t reallly experimented with the boost side yet but the OD side sounds really fantastic - with both single coils and humbuckers - clarity and touch sensitivity are the two things that stick in the mind. Looking forward to spending some more time with it.

Yay!

Doh. It's signed internally, only just had time to check.
The pedal in action is simply wonderful. Its delicate and sensitive in a good way.
Works with every guitar and amp I've tried so far marvellously.
It's sings or whispers as you want it to just by touch.
This is just at home volumes, will be sensational turned up.

Watched the Pete demo and sounds amazing @ThorpyFX, the lows control on the boost is genius.

If you released a little two-knob boost pedal ...

How does this compare to the Peacekeeper?

very different, the peacekeeper has more control over the EQ and has more gain available from the drive side. Pete wanted to peg his drive levels to the amount we set and tonally the EW was simplified as he didn't need the amount of control the peacekeeper offers.

First impressions (caveat - in very much the initial honeymoon period) are - WOW! Built beautifully and looks stunning. Don’t want to imply criticism of the other pedals, but this slightly more compact format looks gorgeous. 
Snuck (snook? Sneaked?) a cheeky play through my champ at  low kids-asleep volume with my Tele and its just lovely. The boost adds a real sheen - almost feels like there is a subtle reverb. The drive side is a lovely smooth drive  and very touch/volume sensitive. I could get completely clean notes with gain on full.  But when you boost the drive - awesome sustain! Definitely in hard rock territory. 
My impressions are that this is what I wish my KoT had been. I’ve immediately got far more rewarding levels of gain. 
Need to give it a whirl at some proper volume, and I’m really hoping it gets on with my Lazy J - but I’m super chuffed. Well done Adrian!

That's interesting, I was thinking almost the exact same thing after having a quick blast on mine last night. Pedals like the Klon and KoT can be initially disappointing because they work better at gig volumes but this was just instant gratification. 

Yes it's the honeymoon period but I'll be getting the Velcro out this evening!
