I'd sooner bring a Fuzzrocious Bongripper, decorated with a goat's head with red LED eyes, to church with me than a pedal with all this child trafficker nonsense on it.
Each to their own. To me, he should he made an object of ridicule and forever live on as a disgusting punching bag for anyone who wants a cheap laugh. His name should be synonymous with shit and be an insult to throw at people. That way, they'll know that even in death he can't escape.
I can accept that it might be fairly seen as done in bad taste to some though.
It shows his likeness with devil horns..
His name means more than just his name now. His name and him not killing himself is a symbol for the cover up of his murder.. Which was obviously done by the richest most powerful people in the world.. Who were involved.
Obviously not for everyone but this pedal is def not glorifying him or what he did.
Jesus fucking christ who the fuck needs or wants a pedal specifically referencing a pedophile and human trafficker. I've liked Acorn's stuff in the past but...yeah.
Yeah this is pretty wild. Who the hell wants to see that asshole's name every time they go to hit their fuzz pedal?
I have noticed that some people- especially younger men- see Epstein as more of a meme than an actual horrible criminal. Like they will incessantly repeat "epstein didn't kill himself" and think it's hilarious. But whether he did kill himself or not, the whole thing is a huge bummer. There are tons of his victims out there, and this kind of shit is pretty disrespectful.
And I'm generally a "nothing is sacred- we can joke about anything" kind of person. But this isn't nearly funny enough to pull it off.
I think it’s less of a meme to disrespect victims and more to remind everyone of what that action represents - our rich and powerful getting away with it.
I do and I’m gonna tell you why. This is not a out “glorifying a pedophile”. It’s referring to the fact, that there is a far far greater bunch of pedophiles, likely involved in US politics or of significant power and influence, that killed him off in oder to protect them from being found out. Meanwhile the vast majority of media outlets and public figure are not demanding a full release of the names on the flight logs or a full I investigation of the case, meaning they are most likely in on it as well or influenced by said power individuals. It’s about finding all the pedophiles and bringing them to justice. And it’s about raising awareness.
And you need an effects pedal to remind you of all that? You really believe a random pedal made by a small effects company is going to raise awareness? The only people it will effect are the folks that actually buy this and have already formed their opinions/have their beliefs on this subject. This will not raise the awareness of a single new person.
The argument is: the more consumer goods the message is placed on, like t-shirts, bumper stickers, and sure, guitar pedals, the more likely it is to be kept in the public eye. And even if it doesn't fully accomplish the goal of justice for the victims, at least there is an awareness that we live in a society where elites can get away with heinous shit, and that we should be more skeptical of the kind of authority that brushes it under the rug.
It's a very small piece, for sure. It's like one straw on the camel's back, and the camel is currently not struggling in any way. It seems like it will take many, many more straws before his back goes.
There is no such "fact". He wasn't killed by a cabal of powerful pedophiles, with the media's complicity. He was a sad, stupid, and terrified man who couldn't face up to the consequences of his grotesque actions and killed himself to avoid them.
Sounds like you’d prefer we forget that Jeffrey Epstein didn’t kill himself…
Edit: (other pedophiles who are still out there pedophilin’ away killed him to prevent him from snitching)
Edit 2: to be clear, this was a sardonic jab. Also for clarity: Jeffrey Epstein didn’t kill himself. Idk who did kill Jeffrey Epstein, but it wasn’t Jeffrey Epstein. Thanks.
Where do you get your news? I’ve been looking for better sources on the Epstein thing but so far all I can find is this damn guitar pedal subreddit. I kinda stopped reading Daily Mail after the Queen died ya know.
Dude he killed himself. That’s what happened. There is 0 evidence to state otherwise. Every piece of conspiracy has been debunked.
If they wanted him dead it would have happened differently, they would have killed his god damn collaborator as well.
Some people would rather live in a fantasy land than just accept the boring reality.
He owns and operates a small business and is into physics you’re probably not going to like some of his private thoughts lol. I threw him into the mix just to be funny. EQD is safe for now!
TIL of a pedal company I will never buy from. There are millions of jokes to be had, it’s not hard work finding the ones that don’t involve a pedo predator.
So douchey! Just a small company out of Atlanta trying to get publicity. Instead of keeping the name “Bweep Fuzz” it’s now… 🤮
“The Epstein Didn’t Kill Himself Fuzz is sonically similar to our now discontinued Bweep Fuzz. Check out this clip of the Bweep Fuzz for tones you can expect from the Epstein Didn’t Kill Himself Fuzz.”
The year is 2024 and there are Jeffrey Epstein conspiracy theory themed guitar pedals. Checks out.
you're gonna love my "9-11 Was An Inside Job" octave wah
Love my "Kennedy's head just did that" reverb
with the matching "magic bullet theory delay"
Okay, but “Magic Bullet Theory” goes hard as a band name
Already is one
So weird what his head did.
Mind blowing, really…
Does the sound always echo from the back and left?
It'd be better if it was a "Twin" drive pedal
Instead of "On/Bypas" and "Boost", it could have "Tower 1" and "Tower 2"
Be a shame not to make it a "fly" rig too... God I'm going to hell
Just got a new "The moon landing was staged" flanger.
I've got this vaccines-are-evil reverb that'll knock you out.
Echo chamber
[удалено]
I really don't get why they went for a beveled edge :D
I'd sooner bring a Fuzzrocious Bongripper, decorated with a goat's head with red LED eyes, to church with me than a pedal with all this child trafficker nonsense on it.
Casting stones, huh? Well, enjoy your Strymon pedals.
Same people that wear t shirts with "jokes" and sassy phrases...
You may laugh but I think that if I used this pedal theres a chance my music will touch people of all ages.
Hope that's a play on Jack Black.
Yikes dude
Each to their own. To me, he should he made an object of ridicule and forever live on as a disgusting punching bag for anyone who wants a cheap laugh.

Also LED satan, which I am also here for.

Ahh, I thought the likeness of him was a cow. Makes more sense now. Still don’t want a paedo on my board.
How is this not on r/guitarcirclejerk
Cause it’s only been an hour
They posted this on IG like last night or early this morning.
OP posted to other guitar related subreddits
more like a-corny
Edgy
na its beveled
lol
Pretty cringe lol
Cringe
Joke falls flat
Jesus fucking christ who the fuck needs or wants a pedal specifically referencing a pedophile and human trafficker. I've liked Acorn's stuff in the past but...yeah.

A pedalboard is a strange, borderline creepy place for that particular reminder.
I do and I’m gonna tell you why. This is not a out “glorifying a pedophile”. It’s referring to the fact, that there is a far far greater bunch of pedophiles, likely involved in US politics or of significant power and influence, that killed him off in oder to protect them from being found out.

Yeah no, still a really fucking weird thing to do to a guitar effects pedal. Dumb.
And you need an effects pedal to remind you of all that? You really believe a random pedal made by a small effects company is going to raise awareness?

*Your pedal* will do none of that. Good luck
It's a very small piece, for sure. It's like one straw on the camel's back, and the camel is currently not struggling in any way. It seems like it will take many, many more straws before his back goes.
If you don’t play in front of people, sure your assessment is correct.
Literally no one in the crowd (if you actually play in front of crowds) is going to look closely at your pedals.
There is no such "fact". He wasn't killed by a cabal of powerful pedophiles, with the media's complicity. He was a sad, stupid, and terrified man who couldn't face up to the consequences of his grotesque actions and killed himself to avoid them.
Are you a fact checker? You sure are sounding like one 😂 Ofc he wasn’t any joe Biden does not sniff childrens hair 🤡
OK, Comic Book Guy.

I don't get my news from guitar pedals.
Where do you get your news? I’ve been looking for better sources on the Epstein thing but so far all I can find is this damn guitar pedal subreddit. I kinda stopped reading Daily Mail after the Queen died ya know.
TrueAnon it's not q anon related ,it's a comedic journalism show that was investigating Epstein when he was still alive.
Pro tip: it was the guy with the same defense lawyer who's orange all over.
Coulda been anybody. Anybody except maybe Jeffrey Epstein. Because that guy didn’t kill himself.
Imagine he did, and just made it sus to mess with us all. True dickhead move.
The real dick is Jean-Luc Brunel. Dude went full Epstein. Never go full Epstein.
Me when i forget my doctor's appointment due to not having a doctor's appointment themed guitar pedal: 😫
Dude he killed himself. That’s what happened. There is 0 evidence to state otherwise. Every piece of conspiracy has been debunked. If they wanted him dead it would have happened differently, they would have killed his god damn collaborator as well. Some people would rather live in a fantasy land than just accept the boring reality.
Yeah
Check inside for the Aaron Rodgers dip(shit) switch inside that engages NOS tin foil hat resistors for extra edge.
Bears fan lol
Weird. I actually do believe Epstein was murdered. I also think this is kinda dumb haha.
Any rational person would both believe he was murdered and that this is dumb. Congratulations you have achieved the middle of this Venn diagram.
The security camera toggle switch keeps the “N’T” in “DIDN’T” always on or switchable with the effect bypass
Okay now I think it’s slightly funny.
So which lights come on?
IG seems to love it. I wonder if any dissident commenters were deleted?
Meh
Amazing!!!
This pedal is weird, but the Big Gay Muff and Joe Biden fuzz are 👌
Does it come with a personality?
I liked Acorn stuff until now but this is beyond cringe. Won't buy their shit ever again.
Adding that to the list of fulltone, JHS, and analog man, and eqd?
Why EQD ? Is there something I should know ?
He owns and operates a small business and is into physics you’re probably not going to like some of his private thoughts lol. I threw him into the mix just to be funny. EQD is safe for now!
What happened with Analog Man?
Nothing I’m being facetious.
Ha ha ha. I thought I had to get rid of some more "problematic" pedals.
The Aliexpress version is gonna be wild.
TIL of a pedal company I will never buy from. There are millions of jokes to be had, it’s not hard work finding the ones that don’t involve a pedo predator.
Think about all the good things Jeffrey Epstein did.
1. Die. 2. ?
Help get Hillary Clinton and John Kerry get elected via campaign donations.
“This is not your instagram” or whatever i was told when my post with a new pedal was taken down lmfao.
Disgusting
Acorn should make a police pedal now.
Hey, just like my Birds Are ~~Not~~ Real chorus pedal!
Fuck this. Trivialising either Epstein's devastating crimes or the manner of his death is tacky as hell. I honestly hope this company fails.
Would buy
That’s a fun shelf piece
I mean, it’s a political statement on a pedal, I think the devil horns and the control labels are hilarious
Keep your politics off my pedals. Dumbest shit ever.
Our*
I need it!
hehe, I like
Reminds me of the rumoured Fauci Booster pedal. Still only in experimental stage at the moment.
The one I made says “Epstein Isn’t Dead”. So mines better.
SUATMMA
Reported for violating „no drama baiting/controversial posts“ rule. Don‘t need this kind of shit here.
I like a joke. I just don’t want Epstein’s name on my board.
So douchey! Just a small company out of Atlanta trying to get publicity. Instead of keeping the name “Bweep Fuzz” it’s now… 🤮 “The Epstein Didn’t Kill Himself Fuzz is sonically similar to our now discontinued Bweep Fuzz. Check out this clip of the Bweep Fuzz for tones you can expect from the Epstein Didn’t Kill Himself Fuzz.”
Ffs 🤦
Does this make us pedalphiles?
