MacDaddy MDW1L V2 "Wombat" In-Line Stomp Box - Natural Finish
The MacDaddy MDW1 "Wombat" In-Line Stomp Box is the staple of the range, the model which is ideal for use in a pedal board configuration. If you’re looking for a good quality well rounded kick to complete your sound then go no further than the Wombat. Input and output connections. Natural camphor laurel finish highlighting stunning individual grain patterns. New Version 2 model.

In-Line Stomp Box
The inline models from MacDaddy allow you to plug a guitar into the input side of the stomp box and combine the output to a single channel on an amp or mixing desk. Ideal for those with limited channels, busking amps etc. You will be surprised at the result, maintaining a solid thump of the stomp box and the relative minimal loss to the quality of the guitar sound. We recommend adjusting your input channel to get the best sound for your stomp box and then using the EQ in the guitar to compensate and brighten up the sound.

Stunning Grain
Each MacDaddy stomp box has it’s own unique finish. It features a beautifully grained timber, boasting enormous colour variations, and it is a fairly soft timber, which produces excellent acoustic properties. No two pieces are alike – and when you’re making hand crafted musical instruments, that’s a really good thing. Stompboxes are primarily the realm of acoustic guitarists (and acoustic guitarists love timber).

Camphor Laurel
Camphor Laurel has a unique perfume. If you’ve never cut into a piece of camphor laurel, try it – the smell is amazing. Camphor Laurel is a noxious weed in Australia. It has the ability to adapt to a disturbed environment, grows at a prolific rate and has an enormous abundance of seeds. It is  mildly toxic if eaten and therefore doesn’t have any natural predators. It is relatively immune to disease. Being a big shady tree it is difficult to remove and tends to create a single species environment because it is so dense. It is the perfect timber for MacDaddy Stomp Boxes!

History of MacDaddy
The Macdaddy story began in June 2012 when professional musician and amateur woodworker Adam Truscott, became frustrated with the stompboxes available at the time. This problem led him to designing and redesigning the pickups and trialing different body shapes until he had a product that became the MacDaddy Wombat, the staple of the range. When Adam was content with the Wombat he turned his attention to designing the other models in the range. The Platypus was the next model, a smaller foot print with the same wombat thump.

The  next challenge was to produce something unique and different sounding, leading to the development of the Kookaburra and Artist models, using tambourine jungles. Both had their own individual characteristics that were quite striking. Finally the Koala model emerged. The concept was to combine the bottom end thump of the Wombat and Platypus with the characteristics of the Artist and Kookaburra, and a double ended the heel toe action provided the answer. Rather than using two stompboxes that were EQ’d differently, the Koala has two outputs and sounds in the one pedal.

MacDaddy believe that their stompboxes are the best on the market and are awfully proud of them!
