wonder when prymaxe will put 'em on clearance...

edit: that comment was because of them being douches to fuzzhugger, not an insult to mid-fi or anything. :hug:

$175!!

The basic idea is, it actually reacts like an amp (or some amps).
The clipping portion of the circuit is under envelope control so instead of mashing a loud signal into a brick wall as most overdrive do, the clipping element of the circuit moves with your playing, much like an under designed tube amp...the kind that sound rad/totally fucked up.
So this is a pedal with "sag" that is more then just misbiasing a transistor so things sound weird, the volume of light/clean strumming, is exactly the same as your hard/blownout strumming.
You can also have the gain control on max, and get to 100% clean by backing off your guitars volume at a 3rd of a turn or less....and it will be the same volume!! for real!!!
I'm really psyched about this dude....now for that demo.........soooooon!!!

Yeah, I'd never release an overdrive unless it did something the other ones don't.
There are far too many out there as is that all do pretty much the same thing.

I wish more builders would do interesting stuff with envelope control.

Yes, directly from him.
No need for a demo... just the description made it for me!
