Cool Demo, nicely done. You can definitely hear the difference between the two. Nice sounding Mustang also!

Nice demo Reece. You can definitely hear the difference, and the Saltbooster wins.

I've seen it. Board is PCB and pot mounted, believe the 3PDT is board mounted also.

I will be making all future Saltboosters with pot mounted veroboard after I did a new design. I made a Fuzz for dub with a pot mounted veroboard that I designed and it's very swish.

woah that things is gorgeous. I love natural guitars with dark woods, that might be my favourite colour combo for a Mustang.
