VH140C distortion channel in a pedal!
Am I right to be excited about this or is it just a rehoused metal zone or something?

Ah fuck yes! I have waited for someone to do this.
$200US, though....
Fuck it, worth it.

Well.
That was fucking rad.
Thanks, Chank!
I'm perfectly sane for just wanting this and an RV3, right?
Is that TOO 90s?
Fuck it I'm old, I don't care.
Also that's the first high gain distortion demo I've heard where the EQ seems to actually make a difference.

Demo contains Opeth (recorded with a tube laney), but no Suffocation? No Cannibal?
I have always kicked myself for not picking up a VH140C a few years back when I almost could have. I mean, it was for sale. and locally. But my bank account said "fuck no".
Aaaah... regrets!
It sounds cool, but I'm fairly certain I could get most of the way there tonewise with The Elements. Or a Digitech Death Metal (which is a super rad pedal). So my gas is only partially ignited. It's mostly ignited because I'm connecting the pedal with the myth of the VH140C.
Still - pcb looks nice, and it is encouraging the playing of brutal music, so I'm all for this!

Some Suffocation would have been nice, granted and I almost expected to hear it there, but I think it showed what the pedal is capable of.
I have a tube Laney.....I could sound like those sounds....
Not having either an Elements or DM means I can totally justify spending that much money to nail one sound.

That sounds rad. I feel like a get a really similar sound from my peavey solid state head when I slam it outrageously hard. Is this mostly for the cvlt coolness? Or am I missing something? I guess just agreeing with others that I think you can get to these tones cheaper and with more versatility.

It's more the fact that a bunch of iconic death metal albums were recorded with the amp this is based off.
Looks sweet.

Its basically like a rusty box for those of us who have fond memories of XXL tshirts, headbands and veganism. Like I can get similar tones to my rusty box with my amp and a pedal, but its still a useful tool to have.
