Hahahaha.

The question is; does your Shin-ei clone come close to William Reids?

Was just going to say, sounds like a Superfuzz having a very hard time. Please nip forward to the 3:10 mark on here to find my oft-quoted, favourite fuzz moment:

Well it sounds exactly like a real one, only with way more volume. You can extract some really nasty fuzz from em. Sold ten of thems so far!

Aye, im intrigued to say the least, that Shin-ei i had killed the signal.. massive volume drop.
Would it be possible/have you considered something like that with an added filter control? Maybe not an envelope filter but perhaps a very dramatic EQ, like the HM-2s for example.

Yeah, definitely. I love that old live footage on the Old Grey Whistle test of 'In a hole' but the quality is poor on youtube.
