Lbc Effects - Cougar Guitars

Post by JohnT »

I recently bought a tremolo pedal from LBC Effects. I'm in Australia - they're in the states. My account tells me they've taken the money, but 3 months down the track - no pedal!

Does anyone know anything about these people?

I also bought a COUGAR LITTLE BOSS. It's brilliant! Freeman Cowgar was a delight to deal with.I would recommend him and his fine instruments to anyone.

Both purchases were made over the web.

If anyone has any info on LBC I'd like to know.

Thanks!

I see there used to be a LBC Effects web site at http://www.lbcfx.com but the site seems to have gone away.

I've never heard of them before; it sounds like you've been ripped off. I hope it wasn't for too much money.

I agree with your comments about Freeman - he's a pleasure to work with.

Hi John T,

I have no suggestions for you about your
wandering pedal.

I do want to join you in your praise of
Freeman Cowgar and his great guitars. I am
into my third year of satisfaction with
my Big Boss non-pedal 8 string with the
Little Boss 8 string clip-on neck.

I have had many favorable compliments on
the beauty of the workmanship as well as
the wide range of voices that it can
produce. I take off the Little Boss neck,
when I want to travel light, and play it
as a lap steel. Also....I really like the
3/8" string spacing. All at a great price.

regards, Maurie
