Sentient Sonic Machines

I’ve been putting this off for a while to see how things shook out, but I don’t really foresee any near-future where things improve enough to feel comfortable. So here’s where I’m at:

With the tariffs, my costs have become untenable to keep my current pricing, prototype and launch new designs, and build in sustainably-sized batches.

I’ve also just lost a lot of heart and drive for this business over the past year. I’m feeling pulled in other directions and also work full-time on top of this.

I think at this time its too early to say I am done for good, but I will definitely not have any upcoming launches or restocks any time soon. I can see a future in which I do a batch or two of Greenseers each year but I can make no guarantees. The only way it is feasible for me to offer things to meet demands is 1) If i raise prices, like $20-$30 per pedal and 2) if I move to a pre-order system. I’m not sure I want to do this but I’ve got open ears if anyone has any feelings about it.

Current inventory of Bolines is on deep discount at $90 each (I will make a separate post about this). My lease situation on the workshop has changed so I am trying to get out of that ASAP, so if uou’re on the fence now is the time to buy one!

Should I move to offering preorders?

For sale, DM me if you’re interested.

With a new pedal launch comes a new giveaway. This time, I’m giving away a free Boline treble booster to one of my followers when this account reaches 1000. That means I need your help. Like and comment on this post, tagging a musician friend (or two, or three…). When we reach 1000 a winner will be randomly selected!

Must be a U.S. resident over 18 years of age to participate. Chosen winner must respond within 24 hours after receiving a message from this account, or another will be drawn.

Been very very busy with my last semester of graduate school+ starting a new job so things have been slow on my end. Stock is almost out and I will likely not restock until May (at least). I’ve got two b-stock and one regular Greenseer left, so if you want em come and get em!
