  I deal with 30th street too. I like them. I bought an Exotic Fx Robotalk
from them. Cool analog random arpeggiator if anyone is interested.

  The thing about the Nano is it gets the "real" sound. For years I was
trying to get pedals that would give me that power tube saturation sound and
was unhappy. I have a Blackface Twin, but I can't get it nearly loud enough
to get that sound....It's such a loud amp. When I got the Nano I was just in
awe....When you mike it up through a cab you would never know it's not a
huge cranked amp. It easy to get a good sound out of it too. There are
enough switches to give you the "right" options without getting lost in the
sauce.
  Also the quality of this thing is great. It is great craftmanship.
  Zach is def. a cool guy. He's really into what he does and is very
friendly.

  Def. very interesting....I think my next ZVex purchase will be the Fuzz
Probe. Creative effects for sure!!
