what i know.
"We have had an issue with a smaller competing pedal company claiming that our Astro Mess Fuzz is a clone of one of their circuits. I want to insure you that all of my hand-built designs are original as well as unique and to not be alarmed if this claim is brought to your attention"

make your own call about sincerity based on those two things.
devi is who she is & makes the pedals she does because of who she is. call her unpredictable, chaotic, contrary, eccentric, a witch. she is who she is & i like her.
& at heart i think she is honest.
Just saying how wonderful their staff are doesn't really constitute an active support of human rights.
Well, sort of. She's pissed away a lot of money building low quality effects pedals, and not delivering on a kickstarter.
I've seen a devi fuzz and, no kidding, the inside looked as though it had been thrown together. Really, really poor quality work that I would expect to fail fast.
Jhs (edit for not being so mean) has been known to be affiliated with a church that supports "gay realignment" camps and its probably easier to Google international house of prayer.
The post they have issued talks about the company - obviously it's up to the owner what he does with his profits, but I'd rather not indirectly support this church that he has links to.
Everything's cool so far, but...please be mindful in this thread - nothing libellous, please, and try not to let it get too heated.
As you were...
I'm guessing that, as JHS have used the word "defamatory" in their statement, they've spoken to their lawyers pre-emptively, and so folk should be incredibly careful about what they say.
I suspect that if you did some digging on any American pedal manufacturer you'd probably find an employee who attends a similar church that you'd be "indirectly supporting" with your patronage
It's up to you what you do with your own money, but singling out JHS seems a bit witch-hunty.
You're doing it wrong. You have to substitute expensive boutique words for some of the boring ones.
Don't talk politics and don't throw stones. Your royal highnesses.
In summary my point is - no one knows anything. And for the man to be driven to make a statement is sad. He's been defending himself for years now. Imagine that.
