I haven't been able to find anything on this with a Google search, on the DiscoFreq site or anywhere here - does this thing go by another name? I'm not posting this as a request but more of a "does anyone even know this exists"?

I noticed the similarity as well. A lot of that line look alike and I wondered if the DG was a Gilmore reference or it's just coincidence. EHX gurus?

Can't it just be a sticker? :hmmm:

That was my first thought. The brown matches the Little Big Muff π pretty well.

Yeah now that you mention it, it is off-centered. It was indeed advertised when I found it as a "DG" so I didn't even bother to take a closer look; that's the largest sized pic they had available. Good catch - definitely looks like an accidental hoax now. Zebra. Mods feel free to kill this one.

I did the same thing years ago w/ a Memory Man from the UK. Had a sticker that said "WIZARD" on it.

It's a sticker. DG is Dan Gurney (not sure of the spelling)
Dirt Bike manufacturer. :lol:
