Damage Control Inc. is now known as Strymon.
Damage Control first came to market with their vacuum tube effects pedals. We were immediately captured with their company vision.
Their effects pedals, while considered unwieldy (due to the fact that they consumed a lot of pedalboard space) are also very highly regarded due to their function and high-fidelity sound properties. There was a particular function that was incorporated into Damage Control pedals that we don't quite understand: "The Magic Eye". At the top and center of all Damage Control pedals is a color-changing "Magic Eye". While the Magic Eye is novel, we really consider it unnecessary.
While this is an imaginative addition to an effect pedal, we would have rather have seen Damage Control apply themselves to things other than the "Magic Eye". When the company became Strymon, they made this exact pivot, but (unfortunately, in our eyes), also changed their focus into digital effects, abandoning their efforts into tube-powered effects.
Despite our criticisms, we think Damage Control pedals are excellent and people should always be on the lookout for opportunities to obtain and use these unique and great-sounding pedals.
We have endeavored to collect a few meaningful Damage Control pedals. As always, we're down for renting them to you for your practice, performance, or recording sessions.
