Z. Vex Pedals - Interesting article

Hi all,

I am a regular reader of a particular software development & business improvement blog, and today I was surprised to see that they had a write up of Z. Vex Pedals in there. Enjoy:

Love reading about small companies who take time to grow, I think if he would have had VC funding it would have taken some of the fun out of his business. Minnesota represent.

Great find - thanks!

I am a bit dumb, however - what is VC funding?

that was a good read. i always thought zvex was a bit of a weirdo, but i like his model. i don't use any of his pedals directly, but i do have an SHO clone. which i'm ok with because at the time, it was a 300$ pedal.

but hats off to him and going with the oddball designs.
