I've seen the schematic, it's very similar to a Shredmaster with a more conventional middle control, it's a good sounding pedal.

hmmmm, unsure what to do now. how much are drivemasters on the bay at the mo?
though when i get the box of mike back, i might not need it. the strat always sounded nice with that.
might be good to dabble a little though.

They usually go for £20-30 when they go up. One every couple of weeks.

I had a Drivermaster for a while, great pedal. Whole range of sounds from light overdrive to full on dirt. Also has bass/mid/treble controls. I paid £15 for mine.

I use it as my main drive sound for rhythm with the again about 3. There is a nice jangle below 12. Good for classic rock sounds for sure. SHO runs before it to boost it for insane levels.
I actually need a 2in1 or a second SHO because I like the SHO on permanently at unity gain.

Nah I know I can build one. If I was a gigging musician then I would. No need for in the house. Especially when I can use my other Drivemaster as a boost.

You are a strange person. You say you'd like one but then you don't just make one.

Liking is different from needing.
I'd like a million pounds but I don't need one.
I'd like a Jaguar but I don't need one.

Homebrew Super Hard-On isn't remotely similar to those things and you know it.

It is similar, just a smaller example.

I just think you're lazy and unproductive. You could achieve lots and lots if you put your mind to it because you're a smart lad, but you just play Gameboy instead.

Game Boy. And I mostly play on my 360 these days.

Original Game Boys are refered to as DMGs. Then you have the Game Boy Light, Play Loud, Game Boy Pocket v1+2. All varieties of the original Game Boy.
