First practise with the bassin' Box-O-Mike. Glorious tones reverberatin' through Ford Lane Studios- I love having clean, crunch and full on distorted sounds from one box, and also clean>dirty>FUZZZDEATH too. Such fun.

CHARS MIKEY!

It's been reversed. I have the parts to build it.

Not much more to tell really.

Except that I also did a layout for it today. I have a free evening tonight so I'll be building while watching the Liverpool game, hopefully I can knock this one up.

What's it based around, in luddite's terms? Another tubescreamer?

Nope. It's a RAT with a bunch of modifications.

Interesting huh? It sounds fuck-all like a RAT.

Ooooh. It's a pedal I see mentioned around the place a fair bit, is all. Interesting.

It doesn't help that he has lied in the past and claimed it was completely discrete, and it turns out when degooped it has an op-amp in it.

Oh Dear. I'll reserve judgement until I have built it, but I'm interested for sure.

New batch is looking good.
I reckon i'd prefer the box of Mike with a gain boost rather than how is now.

St Jimmy pedal? It's a Wooly Mammoth, or at least it's based on one. Check back in this thread for the details.
