Nine Of Swords Effects from UK

Post by Bassus Sanguinis »

Anybody knows these?

Seems to me like somebodys hobby, but the Hammer Film the Devil Rides Out reference and the obvious sludge minded fuzz appeals to me. I'm easy like that sometimes.

Never heard of them before, but that sounds sludgy as fuuuuck. Also they're hella cheap and actually from the UK so i bought one. Said it should ship within 24 hours, so hopefully I'll be able to update soon.

Yeah, I'm assuming a meathead clone of some sort, never tried one before so I'm pretty pumped, I've been thinking about getting a super sludgey fuzz, and for that price I couldn't pass it up.

Just got an email saying it should be here on wednesday, and shipping was cheap. If the pedal is good, these guys are super legit.

Good to their word my Tyrant arrived today! Had a look at the circuit, deeefinitely a Meathead clone. High quality build, so no worries there. I've had some time to mess around with it and put together this demo (actually the first 5 minutes I played with it at all! I'm not a pro demo person).

Jaguar - Tyrant - Laney VC15, with Compact Faye Sing and an Upper in parts. Starts out at unity-ish (around 12 o'clock) and gain is gradually increased. Most of this is the bridge pickup, but there is some neck humbucker in there too, pretty obvious when it happens. Around 3:10 gain, gets maxed (gets quiet because I turned down the volume on my amp, this pedal is so freaking loud), it's pretty crazy, which doesn't come through that well in the recording. Around 4:05 I kick on the Upper for a little while, that was awesome.

Can't believe I'd never tried any sort of meathead before, this is amazing! So ridiculously saturated, massive bass without cutting out high frequencies, and it cleans up really well with the guitar volume knob (3:30ish) (because I know how much we all love dem cleanz).

Thumbs up from me, I'd pay way more than what I did for it. If you need mad doom toanz for cheapz, give these guys a look.

I was thinking the Hyperion, based solely on the description, but yeah, it definitely sounds Devi-ish.
