Paul Cochrane

Paul Cochrane (also known as Paul C. Audio) is a boutique guitar pedal builder and musician based in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, USA, renowned for hand-building highly sought-after transparent overdrive pedals. He introduced his flagship Tim overdrive around 2004, followed by the smaller Timmy, both of which earned devoted followings among professional guitarists for preserving an amplifier's natural tone. He operates with a notably low profile — with no official website — and distributes his pedals exclusively through Humbucker Music, while also licensing the Timmy design to MXR (Dunlop) for a mass-market version.
