Anyone using them?

You mean these?

Fucking awesome.
Spectre is a killer fuzzbox.

[D.o.S.]

What circuits are they clones/interpretations of?

Wild shot in the dark is that the Oracle is a Rams Head Muff of some kind.

i believe the oracle is a tone bender mk1.5/fuzz face variant.

I wish I had that kind of money.

[SPACERITUAL]

Are they even still around? From what i remember they ran like $225 when they came out then the few douchebags that had them started asking like 5-600?

Or do you mean these pedals?




Looking up those pictures i noticed something really really interesting. I picked up a big muff pi a few weeks ago off of ebay, in a wicked enclosure. The seller said it was made by a friend, but the layout, enclosure, knobs and switch placement and even the led color are IDENTICAL to the lodestone. The ONLY difference is the lack of logo's and the labels are etched in the enclosure, makes me wonder if got a prototype, i know ?Alan? is one here every once in a while especially when his company gets brought up maybe he can confirm this. Here's the pic of mine, everything including bolt mounting locations are identical and he makes his own enclosures so ......

Dude, if that indeed is a proto, that's pretty sick.

I emailed the seller to see if he knew what was up. If it is a proto i'm excited considering these pedals are rare as hell anyways. Its creepy how identical it is.

whether you mean the Oracle or not, it is probably the best pedal I have for creamy dreamy syrupy lead tones.

Just got a response from the seller i bought the pedal from......

Wade of Monolith made it. I have a LodestOne and the Tectonic Shift pedal by him. I also have his blkarm cab, 204 cab and soon to be getting a 4x12 and a custom bass cab. He is my best friend. He made that muff pedal u bought for me.

Holy shit!!!! this is amazing news!!!! Feel like I made out like a bandit, there are no others like, gots me a custom Monolith!!!!

[nightterrors]

they really need to post a demo of the Tectonic Shift haha, I heard like 15 seconds of it in the one video they have on Youtube, it sounds insane. They look really cool too, like they're made really well.

Apparently the pedal i have is the right side of the tectonic shift, i can try and post a a demo of that next week if you'd like!

here's the second message i got from him:

Glad to hear it. Every part of the pedal was made by Wade at Monolith. What u have is his version of the muff that is used on the Tectonic Shift pedal( which is one side muff other side super fuzz). Which rules btw.

I'm super jealous, AA!
