Doubletone in the UK?

Anybody heard of them? The front panel looks like a Ceriatone with a custom logo.

I wonder how much they were charging?

Correction- the front panel layout looks like a Dumble with a custom logo. The existence of a web site doesn't mean anything beyond the existence of a web site. If it's a fairly elaborate web site, that could mean that the builder knows more about making web sites than electronics and running a business. Or not. Looks like they committed to a run of 50, and decided not to do any more for now. There's some contact info- give them a call and see what their story is.

I think you might be wrong Martin, the footswitch box is pure Nik, which led me to believe it is a Ceriatone kit custom badged for Doubletone

You could be right about the source of components, Rog. My point there was that ultimately it's a copy of a Dumble, wherever the parts came from.
