Yes – what often differs between pedals is the dispersion and component aging that changes the sound. Often there is also a bit of “voodoo”, that older devices are often supposed to sound better than newer productions.

Yes, in the early days some models were offered in OEM and even developed together for Fender (MS8).
What means OEM? Original Equipment Manufacturer
An original equipment manufacturer (OEM) traditionally is defined as a company whose goods are used as components in the products of another company/distribution, which then sells the finished item to users under their own brand.
Here is a small overview of the companies:
Fender, Rhino, Series10, JHS, Phonic Rock Box, Hello Kitty, Shadow, Rok Axe, Impact, Kramer, Dean…
From time to time we receive inquiries about spare parts for Nobel’s products. A battery cover or the button for an old midi controller is often missing. Unfortunately, there are no longer any spare parts for many models but we even have a few spare parts in stock. Please make an individual request by email at support@nobels.com
