THE SOUND

Chasing tone, not nostalgia.

Every Mildenhall circuit starts with a question: what made the original record? Not the reissue, not the clone-of-a-clone — the actual signal path. We study the circuits behind the tones guitarists have chased for fifty years, then build them with parts you can actually source, at prices that don't require selling a car.

It's why our reference point keeps landing on the same place: David Gilmour's rig, and the long lineage of fuzz, delay and preamp circuits that built his sound across four decades of records and tours. Faithful to the source. Built for the way you actually play.

ABOUT

One workbench. Every unit.

Mildenhall Studios is a one-person operation — circuit design, enclosure work, testing and packing all happen at the same bench, in the Netherlands. No outsourced assembly lines, no rebadged PCBs. If your pedal has a fault, the person who built it is the person who answers the email.

Design

Circuits are studied, breadboarded and A/B'd against the original hardware before a single enclosure is drilled.

Build

Hand-wired and hand-populated in small batches, socket-tested before they ever ship.

Price

No boutique markup for its own sake — the goal is the tone in your hands, not on a waiting list.
