AN OPEN LETTER FROM MICHAEL LANDAU.

This letter is in response to the recent events surrounding Mason Marangella and Vertex Effects. I first became aware of the drama concerning the Vertex Wah Wahs through Clif Jones on August 16th. I was late hearing the news because I had been on tour and I’m not a regular on the gear forums. The news was not good, this was exactly the type of drama that has kept me far away from guitar pedal endorsements for most of my life up until recently.

Since I’ve never actually owned a production model Vertex Axis Wah, I anonymously purchased one 12 days ago so I could have it compared to the BBE Ben Wah by a reliable source whom I’ve known for many years,
I wanted to have a first hand account of the results. The results show that the Vertex Axis Wah I recently purchased was identical to the BBE Ben Wah.

Obviously I can’t be involved with a company or associated with a person who runs his company like this, 
so officially as of 9-6-2014, I no longer formally endorse any Vertex products. 

I would like to state the following facts for clarity:

- I am not an electrical engineer, the only time I open up a pedal is to change the battery.
- I have never used, nor have I ever endorsed any of the production model Vertex Wah Wahs.
- The Wah Wah that has been on my pedalboard since January 2013 is an old Dunlop Cry Baby that was modified by Mason, I don’t know the specifics of the mods, it sounds good to me, it does have a Vertex sticker on it from when Mason worked on it a couple of years ago.
- I do not use, nor have I ever endorsed the Vertex cables.
- I use the Vertex Landau Boost because I love the EXP volume control function.
- I use the Vertex Volume pedal only as an EXP pedal for the Landau Boost.

As of 9-3-2014, I have instructed Mason to give all of the dealers and distributers a 30 day notice 
stating that the Vertex Landau Boost and the Vertex Landau Chorus will be discontinued.

Out of respect to the entire guitar community:
If anyone wants to return their Vertex Landau Boost or Vertex Landau Chorus and is having a problem doing so through Vertex or the dealer they purchased it from, please contact Clif @ L.A. Vintage Gear and I will personally provide a full refund.

massima stima per il signor landau

Mi immagino un sacco di gente senza saperne niente che faceva una prova comparativa tra Axis e BBE e diceva robe tipo "Sono simili, però l'Axis ha una corsa più dolce" o altre psicoacousticbullshits. 

 

Comunque profonda tristezza e squallore. 

 

 

...quasi quasi ora compro il chorus e poi gli dico "Ehi ciccio, adesso rimborsami".

Sai che invece secondo me il confronto l'hanno fatto in pochissimi...di BBE non ne ho mai visto neanche mezzo in Italia.

probabilmente tutti i BBE venduti li ha presi Vertex negli ultimi anni. :sorrisone:

comunque il vertex/BBe al di la del casino suona bene!

Si ma il BBE costa un terzo...

Il danno di immagine ai vari Landau, Henderson, Ford è enorme.

Per non parlare di tutti i rivenditori ed acquirenti.

Per me sarà un miracolo se non parte 'na mega causa e questo cojone scapperà in Messico.

Guarda, io non ho visto nessun confronto. Infatti immaginavo la scena, non avendola vista.

Non metto in dubbio che suoni bene eh.

 

 

 

Michael Landau l'ha sfanculato, a quanto si vede. Ovvio che ne avrà un danno d'immagine, ma mai quanto Vertex. Che quelle stronzate sentimentali sul post di TGP se le poteva evitare.

"Ho sempre avuto una certa stima per Vertex, specialmente quando ancora non se la cagava nessuno"

 

:sorrisone:

 

Nick... la stima era ovviamente riguardo l'assemblaggio di pedalboard. :facepalm:

 

In ogni modo ho smesso di seguirla quando ha incominciato a produrre a livello commerciale i pedali.

 

PS. Un amico ha acquistato sia il Vertex Wah che il Landau Chorus. Dovrò dirgli qualcosa!?

che guaio senza limiti! Ma calmi tutti... era solo un esperimento sociale sui chitarristi!  :lol:

 

Cmq, il pot nel wah almeno lo cambiava... quindi una corsa più dolce si potrebbe dire!  :devil:

tu prova a dirgli qualcosa, però sii preparato....potrebbe anche risponderti che non puoi capire perchè NON HAI FEDE IN VERTEX....e che comunque il Vertex Wah gli ha reso la vita migliore.... :P;)
