Just wrapped these one-offs. The Moon Unit is a delay and reverb all in one with a momentary slam to send the echoes into self oscillation. Fun time space machine. And the looper is just a 3 loop true bypass looper! Cheers.

Yup! It was an idea my buddy had. I wasn't super into the concept but I dig how it came out. It's definitely striking, if you saw it at a show you'd really want to talk to the player about it.
