New CCB artwork… “Qircles”!
The image doesn’t do it justice. My camera won’t capture the crazy florescence in the color scheme chosen for Qircles.
Knob is vintage and will change from pedal to pedal.
Order now in the store.
***Just for fun: Google the word “Qircles” and watch the weirdness that comes up
Knobs: Vintage. Shows usual wear and tear for a 30 year old knob and will change from pedal to pedal.
Led: Will change from pedal to pedal
Design: Dude reacts to walking in on his parents engaging in coitus.
In the store now
Also, Audio-Effekte.de posted some great reviews of the current line of Ohnoho pedals. It’s in German. Here’s a translated version from the Googles.
After receiving many requests to port the Utter Stutter “Noxxaz” art over to the CHK CHK BOOM I hit the drawing board and dreamed up “QUBES”.
Knobs are from my vintage collection and will change from pedal to pedal. They will be black and round and show signs of vintage mojo wear.
In the store now.
I have also updated the “Solder Soldier” artwork for the remaining 3 CCB’s left before these sell out.

Hey Kids,
Back from Mexico, well rested and caught up on all of my vacation orders.
Here are the new designs for CCB’s and Blowing Up.
As you can see I went back to stencils for these designs. Super time consuming, and within 3 minutes my elbow and wrists ache (Carpal Tunnel here I come) but I just love the way they look. They feel more complete to me than the decals I was using for previous batches.
Utter Stutters:
I’m still waiting on parts for Utter Stutters. Might be time to switch to a new supplier. Waiting 2 weeks for parts really slows me down. You can still order an Utter Stutter if you’d like. All I ask is that you don’t be a load and complain if you don’t like the artwork. Depending on when my parts finally ship, I’m assuming the next batch will start to ship next week.
After I finish preparing my taxes for 2009 I’ll be starting development on a new circuit. It’ll all top secret for now until I get a working prototype.
Introducing…
Ohnoho’s BLOWING UP!
It’s a title/name ending in a preposition, it’s also a state you can put your pedals in (Dude! what’s that sound?! Man, I’m making this fuzz BLOWING UP),
How do you make stuff BLOWING UP?
You get one of these of course!
Bullet Points:
(You owe it to yourself to watch it full screen and in HD. Get the full experience and GAS away, will ya?)
Why I built it:
I’m a big fan of seeing what new sounds I can bring out of old gear. I love distorting anything that has an input. There are worlds of distortion still left to be discovered in micro cassette recorders, karaoke machines, VCRs, camcorders, etc. Try it. You might find a really interesting texture that you have not heard anywhere else.
This is why I built BLOWING UP. I tested a ton of clean boost circuits and even liked a few of them (tip of the hat to ZVEX for the Super Hard On). But none of them were, for lack of a less “energy drink” term, E X T R E M E . I wanted something dangerous, something that would output buttloads of voltage in to thirsty inputs.
I went to the drawing board and discovered some pretty cool ways to build amplifiers in small boxes.
And that’s what we have here.
It’s a loud ass, mutha suckin’ amp in a box.
Why You Might Want One:
Buy this if your current clean boost just doesn’t get loud enough.
Buy this if you’ve always wanted a clean boost but haven’t pulled the trigger yet. In lower volume settings it’ll do what most others will.
Buy this if you wish your favorite distortion/over drive/fuzz has always needed a second foot switch with a gain boost.
Buy this if you want to grab anything and everything with an input and see what happens when it’s BLOWING UP.
WARNINGS:
So far I’ve plugged in every pedal and every audio device I own to BLOWING UP. I have not had one single failure yet. However, I wouldn’t be surprised if something does get damaged at some point from BLOWING UP activities. When the pedal is cranked it’s outputting some serious juice.
By using BLOWING UP you agree not to hold me/Ohnoho responsible for any damage done to anything connected to it. It’s up to you, the end user to educate yourself on how to use it.
Spend your money on things made with passion, fury, respect and artistic fear in the store.
I’ll be out of the country this week thus shipping/building/painting/finishing/testing will be delayed. For folks who have already ordered: your pedals will probably ship late next week. For those who have yet to order please add a few days to that time before I’m ready to ship. You’ll get an email from PayPal when your label is printed (which means it will probably go out the next day).
Because I don’t want to pay crazy international iPhone data charges I will be away from email as well.
Full contact chest hugs,
-L Dawg
wouldn’t you love this guy on a pedal? but what would it sound like? leave your suggestions in the comments
Lookie here!
Utter Stutter!
LEDs flash alternatively when the pedal is active. Knobs are from my vintage collection and will change from pedal to pedal but will stay around the same size. These are built to order so expect 36-48 hours before they ship. Painting these takes some time.
Spend your money on things made with love in the store.
Shipping suspended until September 1st, 2010. It’s summer vacation time!
Just a quick update:
Ohnoho is taking its summer vacation and there will be no further shipping for the month of August.
All shipping will resume 9/1/2010. You can still place orders. I will have email access if you need to contact me but my response times will be slower than normal.
Just for fun: Here are two new songs and music videos from my forth coming record:
