We're proud to be representing another great local Philly brand- Rootbeer Audio! Owner Matthew Manhire is an experienced amplifier repair person and builder. He has previously worked at Ampeg and has been offering his repair services since 2008. This Pusherman pedal is from a limited run of only 14.
From the builder:
The PUSHERMAN (named because of my obsession with the Impressions // Curtis Mayfield at the time) stems from my early years of teaching electronics >>> adhering to a less-is-more philosophy – and because I only had a few parts in the classroom -- the PUSHERMAN is what happens when you try to make a single transistor circuit distorted and fuzzy >>> a never-too-clean, lo-fi distortion that can be adjusted for more gain and tight//gated//angular distorted tones >>> flip the heavy-duty Carling switch to hard-limit your signal with germanium diodes for a gooier grind bordering on fuzz >>> imagine playing guitar through your cassette deck with blown earbuds. It’s kinda like that but smoother.
All PUSHERMAN pedals are drilled, designed, adorned, built, soldered, and tested by Matt Manhire. Pedals are built point-to-point with a mix of vintage and modern “tube amp” components.
