Me either. They've been some of the pedals that I've been wanting to try the most. I'm really stoked about it

Hey, guys, I totally forgot I signed up for this.

I'm sadly unable to participate in the tourbox right now. So, I'm out.

Thanks to intothegroove for providing this opportunity and I hope everybody has fun with the pedals.

:( oh no!

Saturday I hung out with Derelict78 and got to try out his Square Wave Generator that he won in the ILF contest, so I'll put my thoughts here about it!
Overall the fuzz was really, really heavy and thick which was awesome. It was super loud, which is also awesome.
In terms of the actual controls, I thought that most of them were pretty subtle in terms of drastically changing the character of the fuzz. For whatever reason (I'm not sure why) I thought the tone control was going to be more of a filter than a high end roll of knob, but it did give some bluntness to the fuzz when I rolled the high's off. The one knob that gates the fuzz was pretty cool, and otherwise when that knob was wide open the fuzz itself had some awesome sustain.
In terms of placement, I realized that it needed to be pretty close toward the front of the chain in terms of stacking. It's got a very distinct flavor to it and seems to dominate when things are stacked into it. But it does stack well into other things for sure!

In all, super excited to get ahold of the box and make some videos!

It's alright, skully, hopefully I'll get to try these some other time.

I'm just too broke and don't have the time for this right now, but I'm excited to hear what you do with pedals.

DUDE! That is awesome man! I'm happy that you're close to an ILF'er and can jam and stuff :joy:

The SG is a tweaking pedal, like all my pedals the controls in certain spots can really bring some cool stuff out. The main thing with this fuzz is the voltage divider (Regulate) plays a big part in the controls and gain. This is how the fuzz on the Schumann is but I changed some things around to make the controls and sound heavier and more interactive :) I am so glad you like it! Thanks buddy! :joy: :hug:

Wanted to let everyone know that the small Incinerator I made for the tourbox is the first one and is a prototype, so don't mind the taped up extra holes and messiness :facepalm: Made it in a hurry cuz I wanted it tested and finished! Works perfectly and sounds :!!!:
