I'm actually going to be selling them now. Well without that extra knob. I just did that for Isaac.

Isaac Eaton is a sore subject around here.... he owes Hotrod money cuz he is a Douche and does not send things after he has been paid for them....

I don't really like to promote the stuff I sell through forums too much.

Yup same thing - Benecol turned me onto the design. He said the original guy was a twonk or something, so it's a guilt free clone I guess.

Thanks for all the kind words lovelies!

Props to mike for the building and tim for the idea and design. MBM pedals are really classy looking in the flesh.

Also mad props again to Tim for the idea.

The only thing I remember was he released the circuit as a DIY project and then took it all away because he sold the rights to the circuit to Sinister Analog or Tonefactor.
Do they still sell this pedal? I couldn't find it anymore so I guess if they aren't in production, it's pretty guilt free. Might change the name though if you're selling them.

Hi, first poster here..

I have been looking for a Ultra Lord, but couldn't find one for sale. Is this clone an exact copy of it? Or just an interpretation?

Bill Oakley · Post by **Bill Oakley** » Fri Apr 01, 2011 2:10 am

Not sure about the other one in this post but mines an exact copy.

Yap, thanks. Yours looks the same indeed. I was talking about the clone Mike has on his site. They are out of production so it's second hand market or a clone, but there is not much info abut Mike's clone.

I only just released mine, drop me a PM or an email to madebymikepedals@googlemail.com if you're interested in making an order - but yes it's an Exact Clone.

If I was to build another one, I'd probably build it in this size. I had to cram it all in there. It was really tight.

Post by **Mike** » Fri Apr 01, 2011 3:16 pm

Yeah I build them in a case that size also, it just makes things much cleaner and easier - and they're not as big as people think: 120x95mm

Hey Mike, wots that little board on the left?

Post by **Mike** » Fri Apr 01, 2011 3:25 pm

Tim (the lameass) wanted a battery clip for this one when I built it - when I do that I use a small piece of veroboard mounted to the case, I solder the battery clip to that and some leads from there to the DC jack - it offers better strain relief for the joints I think.
