Despite accusations from some unionists that he was exploiting minorities, employees chose to remain loyal to Matthews, emphasizing his merit-based approach and internal promotion. However, this period left scars, and in January 1981, <strong>the repercussions of several months of blockade forced Matthews to file for bankruptcy.<\/strong>  <\/p>\n\n<p>At the same time,<strong> Japanese competition emerged as a major challenge <\/strong>for Electro Harmonix in the mid-1980s. Although the brand ordered electronic chips to fulfill multi-million dollar contracts, the supplier diverted the order to Japanese producers, jeopardizing the company&#8217;s operations. This situation eventually led to <strong>the sale of EHX to a businessman, and although Matthews managed to buy back the brand in 1986, the years that followed were characterized by financial difficulties<\/strong> and a hiatus in production. However, Matthews&#8217; perseverance led to <strong>the resurrection of the brand, with the creation of the New Sensor Company and<\/strong> the reintroduction of iconic products.   <\/p>\n\n<h2 id=\"artists-who-have-made-electro-harmonix-famous\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Artists who have made Electro-Harmonix famous<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<h3 id=\"david-gilmour-pink-floyd\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>David Gilmour (Pink Floyd)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p>David Gilmour used <strong>the Electric Mistress<\/strong> in the &#8217;70s, creating the famous chorus sound on the guitar of &#8220;Shine On You Crazy Diamond&#8221;.<strong> The Big Muff <\/strong>was also a key element in his iconic sound.<\/p>\n\n<h3 id=\"the-edge-u2\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Edge (U2)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p>The Edge has made extensive use of Electro-Harmonix pedals, particularly<strong> the Memory Man for its atmospheric delays.<\/strong> The <strong>POG<\/strong> is also used to create unique polyphonic organ sounds.<\/p>\n\n<h3 id=\"jack-white-the-white-stripes\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Jack White (The White Stripes)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p>Jack White is an avid user of the<strong> Big Muff <\/strong>for aggressive fuzz tones.
