- Independent volume, tone and sustain controls
- 9 volt battery included
About the old Sovtek, BYOC makes a great clone of both the Ram’s head and the Triangle Knob muffs (as well as the swollen pickle, but you already know about that). You should try one of those. They are basically identical to the originals, and I’ve been dying to hear one on bass.
BTW, I like the knew intro graphic thing on the video overview.
cool! thanks for going through one of the hallmark fuzz boxes.
Do you think this one will have problems in a band mix? (sorta like my LBM)
I would guess any pedal with the kind of mid-scoop the muff presents could have problems.
mmmm that’s bad do I have other choice than blending some clean signal?
Hey, that pedal looks familiar! ;)
are you thinking to try USA Version to?
Oh yeah, eventually.
