Uk companies making weirder pedals

jhindsight

I'm a bit obsessed with pedals that lend themselves more towards experimentation and ambient soundscapes rather than traditional guitar sounds. Pedals like wizard of pitch, avalance run, meteore, dream sequencer etc The problem is they all seem to be made by companies based outside the uk so they're difficult to get hold off and expensive to import. 

Does anyone know of any UK based companies who make pedals like this?

Langtronics bone collector is certainly unusual


The old lovetone pedals are a bit crazy but pricey

The Bone Collector is certainly worth a look. Bonkers!

Starts getting odd when effects are being combined... Though that's more experimental noise.



 The this is a more ambient multi thing. Very poorly edited

Rainger FX in London make some bizarre pedals. Can't vouch for them though; they're all ugly as sin. Can't be having those monstrosities on my board.

Some of those look great, love the El Distorto!

I love the look of the Dr Freakenstein Fuzz, especially the knife switch.

You should take a look at some of the work by MWFX.  The Judder and Glitch would fit this category.  Unfortunately he's stopped taking orders at present but you may find some of his gear used.

Nine Of Swords offer lots of crazy fuzz/oscillation pedals at great prices. I ordered the Hand Of God fuzz couple days ago purely for the noise. There's also custom pedal options available as well apparently...I mailed him about a design I had in mind but didn't get a response back though.

There's also COG Effects who do custom pedals, if more expensive. They seem worth it though.

Yes let me know more about weird noise UK pedal manufacturers too.

Thanks all, plenty to investigate here. Keep them coming

As mentioned above, you can't go wrong with MWFX and Rainger. I'd add Pickletech Electronics too, he's on Facebook and Etsy, and his Mega Berkatron is as insane as the name suggest.

Looperstar Fuzzjunkie is like a fuzz factory with expression controllable oscillation

Would've suggested if you hadn't! Do you know if he's planning on starting up again soon? I've been gassing for a full metal Judder.
