TRUFACT: I spent 45 minutes trying to do this before finally deciding it looked wank, and an 'M' didn't lend itself to that graphical style nearly so well. Also liked the cheekiness of 'Michael' under the Roland R.

SOme recents:

Univibe workalike with LED/LDRs

This one I have a sort of distressed look, which this shit photo doesn't really do justice.

Here's a couple of prototypes I'll send around for some folks to have a muck about on. Decals are bobbly as fuck as the weather has been playing merry havoc with me.

I love the 50's pinup Zombie pedal. Very cool.

That's changing - ordered parts and boards for 4 more since they caused such a stir. Won't be cheap though!

Â£165 plus P&P is what I've landed on.

Indeed.

That's a great name. $140 is Â£88 so I could do you pretty much most overdrives you might be interested in, even the really complex stuff since you're a mate

Stuff that falls into that gap:

OCD
Zendrive
Xotic RC/AC/BB
Austin Gold
King Of Tone
..

or take a look and a listen here (they provide clips with a lot of the links) and see if there's anything you recognise that you fancy

can do King of Tone V2 with the 2 seperate volume knobs?

V2

For those who want that little bit extra switching versatility. This version has two separate volume pots which are switched by the second footswitch. This is a nice feature which will allow you to have a rhythm and lead boost setting from the same pedal. The extra switch (3) selects whether or not you want the feedback loop diodes being put in circuit when Volume A is selected (red channel) which can give you extra grit in the red channel if you want it, irrespective of the position of Switch 1.

my other idea for a pedal name has always been called THRAWN

and use this book cover of outbound flight as a pedal background

Post by **Mike** » Mon Jan 21, 2013 2:18 pm

Yup, no worries at all, it can be done. I'll add you to the list now

What's the deal with the Forevereverb Mike? It could be exactly what I need for my Bassman...

robroe · Post by **robroe** » Tue Jan 22, 2013 2:10 am

I forgot reverb. does reverb cost more? instead of a two clicky overdrive could you stuff a single clicky overdrive on one side and a simple. 1 knob reverb clicky on the other side?

I forgot the excelsior has no reverb

if not its cool I have no idea how this shit works
