Why Is There No Vitriol For TC Electronic Pedals ?

A mate and I were discussing this the other day, and how that Tor fella (or whatever his name is) seems to have taken a similar naming convention over to UA for their pedals. I know that's a strange thing to say, but it feels like he's played a big part in that TC series and the recent UA output and there are similarities to be had between the odd names they give their pedals...though that means nothing really, I'm sure there's a stark difference in quality, no doubt. But to my mind, it does cheapen the branding of both companies. "Thundercunt Flanger" and "Knuckles", really?

What's kind of sad to me is that these companies, once known for exceptional level quality, now put out less serious, inexpensive gear for the masses. Once upon a time, you had to save like fuck or be a musician on studio money to be able to afford a 2290. I'm not saying that affordability is a bad thing, I'm simply saying that the standards have dropped.

(No offence to the poster above, I'm glad you like your flanger! :-))
