Where can I buy a BJFE Honeybee?

[johnsfore]

Hi. I've been reading some amazing things about the BJFE Honeybee and am thinking about shelling out the big cash for one, but can't seem to find a place to buy one. None listed on Ebay, tried Googling the pedal but did not come up with any place that currently has any. Does anyone know where to buy a honeybee? Thanks.

You can find them periodically on the Emporium anywhere between $360 and $400 usually. Other than that good luck on finding one.

Thanks to all. Egad!! Combing through the emporium is like trying to find the needle in the proverbial haystack. I'm a new member and am finding TGP to be an amazing resource but my eyes hurt from combing over that Emporium page. Let me ask you all this - there are a couple of Landgraff Dynamic Overdrive pedals currently for sale on Ebay for approximately the same ridiculously expensive price. Do you think this pedal is as good as the Honeybee? If so, I could probably get one quickly. Thanks!!

Have a look at www.godlyd.com. Norwegian site, but they ship to the us etc. Prices are not to bad either...

+1, if you need it quick and don't mind paying Euro prices, Harri is the distibutor and will likely be able to fill your order quicker than most dealers. Bjorn is a one man operation and he simply can't keep his pedals "on the shelf" anywhere, they are either pre-ordered or sell extremely quickly.

They are not at all the same. The Landgraff OD is a modded/upgraded Tube Screamer design, the Honey Bee is completely different. The BJF pedals are unusual in that they are made with discrete parts rather than chips, at least that is my understanding. The only pedal I've played that sounded and responded a bit like the Honey Bee was the discontinued BJF Baby Blue Overdrive.

If you want to check out the Landgraff sound, there are people cloning them... way less $ if you can live without the groovy paint job (I can).
