Yeah, Black Finger is great, I really like its ability to add some nice warm color to whatever you run through it without requiring you to get too squishy. It can squash super hard if you want, though it tends to get too noisy for me at those settings. Never tried upgrading tubes, wonder if that helps?

Those tube-based pedals do look pretty awesome. Been wanting to try the English Muff'n myself, since my rig is solid state i like running tube-based distortions/preamps (used to run a Blacksatr DistX, now I'm using a Vox V8 distortion). power requirement and size have generally kept me away.

Heard good things about the Black Finger on bass.

Sooooooooooooooooo....... I may have just pulled the plug on a VERY reasonably priced 90’s reissue. Popped up on my Instagram, I paid for it without really thinking about it and picking it up Monday.

I’m more overjoyed than I have a right to be at this point

(When I sold it was to finance some other more needed gear while my wife was in grad school and I was the sole breadwinner - I’ve always regretted it and I am very excited for this!!)

ohhh nice, congrats!!!!

I am also in the "sold one for the highest price I would ever pay for one, and could now never justify the cost" club. I'll keep watching those ebays (though I'm fine without

).

I keep hearing good things about the Tri Parallel Mixer.
I'm afraid it would be one of those things I love but spends years sitting in the closet between uses.
I think I would end up spending more money on longer patch cables. The need for two patch cables per pedal bothers me for some reason.
I'm usually too lazy to set up more than three pedals or round up a bunch of patch and power supply cables.

The design feels Hyrulean which does rule. I need the Triforce.

I am actually more excited than I imagined! I let the previous one go when I was trying my phase out “fancy” pedals but I always missed it. Seeing them on Reberb for $900 is VERY disheartening.

Scruffie - your avatar is VERY confusing!

I wondered how long it would be before someone got freaked out by him.

Well, the simple story is I was doing a painting and he was just meant to be a temporary place holder but I realised how horrifying he looked, it made me burst out laughing and thus, Frank.

Excellent. Also a big fan of Frank.
