    So somebody invented the 6 stringed guitar.
    Look what happened there! They don't have a patent!

    well, they *did* at one point. :)

    someday i'll think of something unique.

    I need a new trumpflungular.
    My Girlfriend said to me..."How many guitars do you need?" and I replied...."How many pairs of shoes do you need?" She got really quiet.

    exhausted, don't give up man. there's no copyright on those type of circuits.

    i'm actually about to start up my own effect pedal company soon. i've already designed and prototyped a ts808 clone and a big muff pi clone. Both of which i've improved the circuit from the originals. i've designed the circuit boards, used the best quality components, and offer true bypass clickless switching. plus, the enclosures will have a nice powder coat finish and silk screen labels. i think i can sell quite a few of them cuz they will look good and sound awesome.

    hopefully, i'm going to get a website up soon to help sell them at a decent price. i know i've got to compete against guys like keeley and analogman, but i'm gonna give it a shot cuz i think i offer a product that is just as good if not better.

    hell, go ahead and keep making them and give those guys some competition.

    i can help you out. i've done alot of research in terms of pedal building and finishing.

    the guy that runs loooper seems like a pretty cool guy. i've been emailing back and forth with him today.

    i may still proceed with the three designs i've prototyped so far. still need to look into the costs of getting a business license and everything.

    Getting your own business started is cheap. All you have to do is register at your local town hall for like $40. I have my own web design company, and it was a hellof a lot easier to set up than I thought it was going to be.

    i'm hoping it is easy here. i would have to get a business number and everything from the federal government though. i have a bunch of sites bookmarked to research it.

    and i'd want everything to be above board so i could write off expenses etc. etc.

    see. Socialism Sucks.

    The less government you have, the better off you'll be.
