What is that guitar in the Great Destroyer video? Telemaster? It is yellow and awesome and I want one.

Fulltone OCD
EHX LPB1 Boost

& coming sooon, Fredric Effects Superfuzz

and second channel on the Classic 30 for lighter gain, edge of break up stuff.... if that counts.

I reckon with the new addition of the S.F.... I'll have the perfect palette dirt-wise.

Liked the Eau Claire, but didn't really like the Great Destroyer. Bit too much for me

All too expensive however, and as I'm skint, It's academic anyway

Does a treble booster count as an overdrive? My Strangemaster has a stepped gain knob on the side that will push my clean Valve Jr. into overdrive when it's set fairly high. By the same token, I suppose any Eq on a boost setting can become an OD pedal.

I have quite a few fuzzboxes and some ODs too.

Zoom UF-01 & PD-01
(Vintage) Little Big Muff
BYOC Triangle Large Beaver & Tonebender Mk. II clone
Melxowtone & Melxowtone 2
George Dennis Wah-Overdrive
Fulltone Catalyst (!)

and maybe some others I forgot about. One of these days I'm going to chain them all together and make a video of the result.

There are still quite a few I'd like to get my hands on, like a vintage Blue Box, Fender Blender, Companion/Shin-ei and about a million others.

OK, I can give you a rundown, but like an idiot, I don't have any real pictures of it. and I'm yet to have it shipped back from LA.

So the story: Andrew contacted me via OSG about designing a small fuzz he could install in the rhythm circuit of a run of jaguar style guitars he had planned, I agreed on the condition that he concoct a Tele/Jaguar hybrid body and pickguard for me.
WOOOOOT! The little fuzz became "ZHAGO" (also coming out as a pedal) and the guitar became Teligula (We can thank Roachelle for the name)

The bridge is MIM standard, pickups are 69 thinline RI in the bridge and AVRI neck. Three way toggle (middle is out of phase) the neck is from my Fender 50's classic tele. The finish is "Butter Rot" Andrew did it. The wood was stained blue before the yellow finish over the top. Zhago fuzz is in the rhythm circuit. The Fender logo is covered up, cause ain't nobody at fender paying me to advertise!

I love it a lot. Probably won't end up putting that tele back together, Teligula is the bes tof both worlds. I do intend to rebuild my Jag though, as it is my only trem guitar.

My board has gone pretty dwarfcraft crazy at the mo. I think the way to approach dwarfcraft is not to think of them as a sound but more like a seperate instrument/sound effect.

I use three tones clean, slight OD from the Internet and a fuzz from either pron'd up Internet, shiva or the spectalcular but l vary which fuzz sound I use if that makes any sense. I.E. I won't always go to the shiva for a specific part. It's amazing how the variation affects what/how/when u play. In short I'm bloody loving playing guitar again thanks to one crazy chap in eau claire
