In a tough economy, we were fortunate to be able to push our product ideas forward and create a unique line of high end pedals with our Strymon division. We&#8217;re now shipping six Strymon pedals, all of which are built in our factory just north of Los Angeles, California, USA.</p>
<p>As you might already know, in 2009 we teamed up with Strymon to begin developing new products together. It went so well that Strymon became a part of Damage Control. We&#8217;re a tight knit team and both companies are stronger now as one.</p>
<p>We are very excited about the new direction that we&#8217;ve been moving in, and have decided that for the foreseeable future, <strong>all new Damage Control products will carry our Strymon name.</strong> This includes the new Damage Control products currently in development that you may have seen on our blog. We&#8217;re extremely excited about these and working feverishly on them.</p>
<p>Focusing on Strymon will allow us to best reflect our new ideas, innovation and vision in our products. It will also allow us to focus our communication with customers, artists and fans. We invite all of our devoted Damage Control fans to check out what we&#8217;re dreaming up with <a href="http://strymon.net"><strong>Strymon</strong></a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://strymon.net"><img src="http://damagecontrolusa.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/strymon_button.jpg" alt="Visit Strymon" title="strymon_button" width="167" height="32" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-905" /></a><br />

<p>Of course, our dedicated customers will still be able to get support for their existing Damage Control pedals. Just visit our support page at <a href="http://damagecontrolusa.com/support">www.damagecontrolusa.com/support</a>.</p>
<p><a href="/support"><img src="http://damagecontrolusa.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/dcsupport.jpg" alt="Damage Control support" title="dcsupport" width="167" height="32" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-906" /></a><br />
&nbsp;<br />
&nbsp;<br />
&nbsp;</p>
<p>Our goal is to create new paradigms is music electronics. We have a whole array of new projects brewing in the labs that we&#8217;re hard at work on. Huge thanks go out the customers and fans worldwide who have supported us through these crazy economic times. Without all of your support, we would not have been able to continue our dream of developing innovative music gear.</p>
<p>While the name may be different, we&#8217;re still the same five guys! Thanks for your support,<br />
Gregg, Pete, Dave, Ethan, Terry<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://damagecontrolusa.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/timeline_sm.jpg" alt="" title="timeline_sm" width="180" height="159" class="alignright size-full wp-image-676" /><strong>So, you may have asked yourself. What&#8217;s up with Damage Control? What the heck have these guys been up to?</strong></p>
<p>Over the last couple years, we&#8217;ve been happily building <a href="/products/timeline">TimeLine</a>, <a href="/products/glass-nexus">Glass Nexus</a>, <a href="/products/demonizer">Demonizer</a>, <a href="/products/womanizer">Womanizer</a>, <a href="/products/solid-metal">Solid Metal</a> and <a href="/products/liquid-blues">Liquid Blues</a> for many satisfied customers and artists. During that time we transitioned our sales model from retail music stores to direct sales right through our website.</p>
<p><strong>What is this Strymon I keep hearing about?</strong></p>
<p>Late last year we teamed up with our friend Terry at <a href="http://strymon.net">Strymon Engineering</a> and started working on some new products together. Things went so well that Terry came on board and Strymon is now a division of Damage Control. Strymon is dedicated to providing insanely high-quality, cutting edge, boutique music electronics.</p>
<p><a href="http://strymon.net"><img src="http://damagecontrolusa.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/strymon_pedalgroup.jpg" alt="strymon guitar effects pedals" title="strymon guitar effects pedals" width="600" height="170" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-634" /></a></p>
<p><strong>What Strymon products are available?</strong></p>
<p>Over the last few months we&#8217;ve released the <a href="http://www.strymon.net/products/ob1/">OB.1 Optical Compressor</a>, <a href="http://www.strymon.net/products/brigadier/">Brigadier dBucket delay</a>, <a href="http://www.strymon.net/products/ola/">Ola dBucket Chorus &#038; Vibrato</a>, <a href="http://www.strymon.net/products/bluesky/">blueSky Reverberator </a>and <a href="http://www.strymon.net/products/orbit/">Orbit dBucket Flanger</a>. And there will be more where these came from!</p>
<p><strong>So. What&#8217;s happening with Damage Control products?</strong></p>
<p>It&#8217;s official, we&#8217;re opening a new chapter in the Damage Control book. We have completed the final build of our existing line of products.</p>
<p><strong>Whaaaat???</strong></p>
<p>You heard us right. We&#8217;re discontinuing everything. We have limited quantities of our products available in our <a href="/store">online store</a>. Once they&#8217;re gone, they&#8217;re gone forever.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s time for Damage Control to push the envelope once again. To create new paradigms in music electronics that are unlike anything you&#8217;ve ever heard. We&#8217;ve got a whole new array of projects brewing in the Damage Control kitchen. In the coming months you will begin to see some sneak previews of what&#8217;s to come. We&#8217;re very excited about what&#8217;s going on in our labs and we hope you will be too. New Damage Control products are coming. Stay tuned.</p>
<p>Make sure to <a href="/signup">sign up for our email newsletter</a> and we&#8217;ll keep you in the loop!</p>
<p>So if you want a Liquid Blues or a Demonizer, you might want to hop to it and head on over to our <a href="/store">online store</a>. And the last TimeLine out the door may very well become a collectors item!</p>
