Highly probable. A few years ago Caline had about 120 pedals on their site. Only about a third were actually available with Caline badging. The others could only be bought re-branded. The casings are unmistakable Caline. The in out jacks are in a straight line with the 9v input below the output. They use a nylon washer under the footswitch and the pilot light is centered at the top. That combination of exactly where the holes are drilled out on the casing is only found on a Caline.
Side comment: when Josh H Scott and his pedals appeared on the market I did get them confused with the UK distributor (of many decades standing) with the same initials.
I found out 10 years ago that my visitors wanted to know who made the re-brand I reviewed. So I soon found that although most use a Hammond H 590 B enclosure they drilled the holes in different places to insert all the jacks and knobs. Knowing that saves a lot of time. Often the maker says what they cloned, for example a Tube Screamer, but the re-brand sells the same pedal but either says nothing or hints that it is something different and unique. Which is marketing B.S.

They look like rebadged Calines.

ReplyDeleteInteresting. To me, the giveaway was the artwork and wonky fonts, ie no consistent trade dress.
