seriously, i do not want to offend somebody (and if i did, i apologize), i just do not understand it why this pedal? 2 standard tubes, 2 switches, 2 knobs, hand built in spain... ok, if this is the new shit for 400 EUR plus 18% tax this is for me :picard:
(as my comparision, the pico valve tube amp head that sounds to my ears extremly good costs 349 EUR)

itll take your favorite fuzz and make it sound bigger and better.
i know that sounds cheesy, but I'm serious!

sib! fatdrive does this too...

12ax7 or whatever triode pedals are not that amazing (anymore) too me. pentode stuff gives you more harmonics and makes the sound "more wide". if somebody would come up with these pedals i would go like :yay: for sure.

but you haven't played the Valve Klipper pedal, right?

I don't understand this reasoning of "it only has 2 tubes and switches and knobs..."
that could be said for all technology. if something sounds good, then it sounds good.

if you want to hate on a pedal you've never played before then that is up to you, but for those of us who have one, it sounds great and I don't feel bad about spending $500 on it.

Because it is Spanish, I think it just depends on how high the euro is, compared to the dollar..

Ahhh. A buddy of mine has one of these, don't think he uses it all that much. Maybe I could borrow it.

I thought Faustone were re-releasing this pedal in a smaller enclosure, but I can't access their webpage any more...
