THE GRISTLEIZER

The Gristleizer (aka: The Gristleiser or The Gristliser) was an analogue special effects unit used by industrial experimental band Throbbing Gristle during the 1970s & early 1980s. The original Gristleizer unit (including the name) was conceived and made by (Chris Carter) and was based on a DIY construction project by Roy Gwinn, which was published as the 'GEP' (Guitar Effects Pedal) in Practical Electronics magazine (July 1975 issue). Only a handful of Gristleizers where originally ever built (8 to 10 or so...) and that was way back in the late 1970s - and up until the turn of this century Chris and Cosey were still using the original models. Chris' was stolen (or mislaid, apparently!) at a TG exhibition in London and Cosey's unit died a couple of years ago and couldn't be resuscitated.
