PLEASE READ

Welcome to Twilight Electronics, a place where guitars are transformed into magic. What happens in these enclosures, is a window into realms and worlds unknown to mankind until now.
If you decide to purchase, please note that I will normally ship in 1-3 days, however there may be rare exceptions where it can take up to a week because I am sometimes traveling and away. I will do my best to communicate when you should expect it to be shipped.

All sales are final.

I am Mr. Twilight and I dedicate my existence to the advancement of sound and music. These are all handmade by me in Echo Park, Los Angeles California. I am a 23 year old studying the art of audio circuitry and making quality tools for musicians. 

Why Twilight Electronics? I have always had these visions in my head of different realities and places, and music would take me to those places. Pedals to me, felt like these portals that would transport my physical self to a new reality with the click of a button, so to me, these electronics are all doors into spaces, corners, and undiscovered depths of the twilight.

It is not as simple as buying a stompbox.

You are buying my story, my vision, my art, and even other peoples stories and visions that I have the ability to bring to life.

Do not hesitate to reach out to inquire about custom stompboxes I love bringing your visions to life.

I am one person doing the graphic design, circuit board design, PCB preparation/assembly, wiring, enclosure drilling, painting, logistics, inventory, customer service, social media, etc, and a whole lot more, so please have patience. I am doing my to do everything needed to keep this going.

PRICING

I price based on a few factors; cost of parts (some pedals utilize hard to source parts or expensive parts), the quality of the finish (I examine the paint and coating and will take the finish and overall look of the pedal into the price), and lastly, cost of labor (some pedals have a high part count and are particularly labor intensive)

When you buy a pedal, you are supporting a single person. I do not do mass manufacturing and everything is built one by one. I strongly believe, that what comes around goes around, and I would like to make Earth a better place than I found it.

QUALITY CONTROL

I have to do all my painting and coating outdoors so naturally, the finishes will not be factory perfect, at the end of the day they are still hand made, but I do the absolute best I am capable. The pedals come out beautifully but I say this so that absolute perfection is not expected.

I do my best to document all enclosures in the photos.

I offer significant discounts if any of my pedals have more than reasonable cosmetic blemishes.

USER INFORMATION

My pedals are not wired for use with internal batteries, only by an external DC power supply. If requested, I can possibly make custom pedals that fit batteries but they may be one size up of a box to accommodate for a battery.

All pedals are center negative 9v unless stated. Never use anything over 9v unless explicitly stated as you can blow very important semiconductors.

Never assume a pedal can safely run 18v.

ALWAYS DOUBLE CHECK THE VOLTAGE OUTPUT OF YOUR POWER SUPPLY BEFORE PLUGGING IN A PEDAL FOR THE FIRST TIME

Many power supplies have 9v-18v switches that can easily get knocked into 18v by mistake.

Daisy chaining power supplies can introduce a lot of extra noise, especially if you have digital pedals in your chain.

Don’t daisy chain if you want to prevent noise.

A lot of cheap wall DC power supplies from Amazon, operate in an audible frequency, so when a pedal is engaged, there is a constant high frequency whine.

I know not everyone is able to afford a proper power supply, but it really makes a difference with noise performance. If you’re going to get a more economic friendly power supply, make sure to get one that is specifically for instrument/pedal purposes, as they are usually designed to operate at non audible frequencies. Generic DC adapters are not.

Also always ensure all guitar electronics are plugged into a single wall outlet, via a power strip or similar. Routing into multiple wall outlets can cause ground loops and noise.

CUSTOMER SERVICE

I love you guys. Thank you for everything.

The thing about buying from me, a smaller company, is I will take care of you. With the larger corporations, getting pedals serviced or fixed can be a nightmare. You can contact me via Reverb or Instagram and I will get back to you quick, on a personal level, and will ALWAYS help you to the best of my abilities.

Communication is key! I ask my customers a lot of questions so I am crystal clear on any requests.

I also love hooking up repeat customers with good deals.

I ALWAYS do a final test playing the pedal, inspecting, and tightening all nuts and bolts before shipping a pedal out to ensure everything is fully working and prepared for long term use.

I really, really emphasize build quality to ensure proper performance for the long run.

If you read the entire thing, thank you and have an amazing week. If you decide to pull the trigger on one of these devices, I always ask that the uses my creations with all of their heart and mind. I want to help musicians create something meaningful in this world.

I chose to dedicate my life to music, to help pursue the advancement and evolution, of the sonic vibrations that make this world go round.

I know I’m not alone when I say music has an impact that cannot be described in words.
