Construction and cosmetic concerns:
This is a sharp looking pedal that meets or exceeds what most people consider acceptable in boutique equipment. The graphic design on the Supercollider is excellent, and the layout is easy to use. Paint seems to be well applied and chipping or scratching won’t be a big issue with real abuse.
Looking inside the pedal, all of the wiring is well laid out and soldering is excellent. The pedal passed the “shake test” but looking inside, it’s hard to see how/if the board is mounted and may just be some clever wedging.
Battery access is the standard 4 screw system. The location for the included battery inside the pedal is demarcated by only a cleverly used piece of foam. While this isn’t ideal, it’s still more solid that leaving it floating (which is what happens in many pedals.)
Spot on review Grygrx, I love mine and it’s the best bass fuzz I’ve ever laid ears on!

Hi.
When reviewing, would it be possible to mention the type of device used to create the sound (silicone, diode, germanium, FET, ect)
Thanks
