Hello, I am a Gemini III user and happened to stumble across this board + wondered if you could advise/help. I bought the GIII several years ago here in the UK. Just sent off for it. It did exactly what it said on the tin and sounded great with my Vox Ac15. Well, then I didn't use it for a while, messed about changing amps and guitars, as you do, but now I'm back to a Vox and Ric pickups. So I plugged in my GIII but the 9v adapter didn't work - bought a new adapter this morning - that didn't work - bought new battery- that did work! Sounds FAB (stage 1 position)...but..I don't want to be buying batteries for ever, so I looked for the site to contact the manufacturer here in the UK (I'd lost the original box and leaflets over time). But, guess what? There doesn't seem to be a web-site any more! There is another Gemini III out there, but that's some kind of overdrive pedal. So, my question is, how do I contact the maker of GIII + how do I get the power socket fixed? I don't want my money back, I love the pedal + as soon as you turn it off, you lose that punch. I'm no good at electronics myself, and the unit itself is sealed in a way you can't unscrew it - probably a good thing - durability wise. But how do I get my mains 9VDC input fixed? I'd pay and send it to them, if I knew where to send it. The only other ones I've seen are here and on Ebay (sold). Any help gratefully received! Thanks GM

If you still have any documentation from when you purchased the pedal, like a receipt or warranty information, it might contain contact details for the manufacturer or better a manual may help solve your problem.
