yeah! now you're on it! what do you think something like that would cost me? i'll have to budget for it over a couple months sadly. :( plus we have the holidays coming up. but a mike's original profani-fuzz would be a GREAT addition to my pedals.

and then if i can buy dots' pedal board from him, i'd have the profani-fuzz and the plane ticket side by side. SS love.

I could probably knock up something filthy for around $80-$100 shipped.

Although I'm leary of sending stuff internationally now Sub's pedal seems to have been lost. :(

If you'd be willing, i could always paypal you whatever you need for parts and shipping, and then once it gets here, i'll paypal you whatever balance you see fit to get some profitized action on it.

or i'd totally just paypal you the 80-100 and not worry too much about it. refundage can always be done via pay pal anyway. and losing shit in the post is so not your fault!

oh, and could either the twat or the cunt knob do something super crazy to the wave form/noise of what's coming out? i don't even know if that's possible from an engineering standpoint. but it would be awesome of one of the knobs did some crazy fucked up phaser or flangey type-y thing...or really, just anything to completely obliterate the wave form.

The only thing I could do off the top of my head is either blend in an Octave signal or gate the signal for a splatty fuzz. Or I could make you a fuzz factory and it could be the Stability control which makes it self oscillate and go nuts. Either way I never take any money until I am done. I'm not NoHo.

LOL! that's because you're a fuckin' stand up dude! i'd want it to be a blank canvas on which YOU can play. just make a knob that does some cool/fucked up/unexpected shit for a dirt pedal/cuhrazy, and i'll be stoked, and it'll be well worth the fundage.

Alright, I'll do some thinking and playing about, I'll make some circuit snippets and see how they go together.

Do you want this for bass or guitar or both?

for guitar actually. i've turned into pretty much a minimalist on bass these days. i let the amp do the tone shaping...but i'm finding that i want to play around with my guitar-age.

fuck yeah dude! i'm stoked as shit on this! we can talk about color of case and LED options, but i'm pretty fuckin' open there too!

I can do whatever paint you want because I'm happy to just buy a can from the Car Store, I can always get 2-3 pedals out of a can, so it's no worry, so just choose one and if I don't have it I'll buy something when the time comes. As far as LEDs so you can have Red, Yellow, Green, Blue or Pink.

Guitar it is. I think you might dig a Fuzz Factory type thing, or a Woolly Mammoth, they sound great on guitar too.
