I've been interested in the Ram the Manparts for a while now - I should really check that one out in person...

Sorry to thread jack but where does the Moog drive sit in the overdrive/fuzz place? I've played around with the drive knob on my 104m delay and it can get really fuzzy so I'm assuming the drive is similar in ways? It interests me a lot especially pushing something or being pushed.

That is a good question.

I've got one on the way.

I'll let you know.

Anyone have or use an astrotone fuzz? They are supposed to be very vintage overdrive sounding fuzz. They are based on the Sam Ash FUZZZZ Box from the late 60's. I have a clone kit coming in the mail. Looking forward to building and playing with that.

Yeah this. I built a clone of a Durham Crazy Horse. Great versatile pedal. Does the Neil Young sound really well. But it does a whole lot more. Does some nice o.d and fuzz. Also makes your amp sound like it's about to explode. But in a good way. Bit of a learning curve but a lot of fun to be had while learning.

Is that clone kit that of the Analogman Astrotone or the original 60s AstrtoAmp Astrotone? (i thought the original 1960s Sam Ash Fuzz Boxx was just a re-branded 60s Astrotone made by the same people, no?)

Do you still have it? I'd love to see a pic. I have a Crazy Horse and it's rare I see another person who uses them. :joy:

The kit comes with the components to build both versions, the original 60's and the analogman version with the extended tone sweep. I will probably build the analogman version.

Yeah I still have it, love it and use it. No pics at the moment. Will be FINALY posting my pedalboard in the next week. Just waiting on an astrotone clone kit to come and tidy up a few loose ends and it will be posted.

Sweet! Did you augment the circuit at all, or is it a straight clone? I love mine too, it's my #1 dirt pedal and has been for years.
