Analog Man is Mike Piera's pedal shop in Bethel, Connecticut. Mike started out buying and selling vintage effects, began modding Ibanez TS9s to TS-808 spec in the early '90s and went on to build his own takes on classics that had become hard to find. The shop hand-builds the King of Tone overdrive, Sun Face fuzz, CompROSSor and its chorus pedals, and it also modifies and repairs pedals from other brands.
