OVERDRIVE- ENDURING AUDIO Bad Luck___NEW ___ BOSS SD-1 clone

$120.00 USD
ENDURING AUDIO=>-  
 BAD LUCK 
A bumped up take on the BOSS SD-1 that uses LED clipping 
diodes instead of silicon to give the pedal more kick and gain.
The layout is Level, Tone and Gain but a Presence control is 
added to give it some sparkle and pushes out some nice 
overtones killing any mud when using darker sounds. 
      ___
            CONCLUSION ___
It is really a totally different animal. The original 
Boss was introduced to be an alternative to the 
Ibanez Tube Screamer. This is more than 
a boosting OD, this has some punch.

FUZZ- WREN & CUFF Tri-Pie 70 ...the game changer

WREN AND CUFF
TRI-PIE 70   
$200.00 USD
The Big Muff was a game changer. The one know known as the Triangle was the first of a long heritage of the Electro Harmonix Fuzz pedals that even this year we have the new Big Muff 2. In the first year the company could only stay afloat by economies. They bought the parts in bulk from whoever could supply them cheap. A Fuzz made on Monday had a different brand put in it by Friday. In short some sounded killer, some were just OK and a few were dogs. Wren & Cuff have been around since 2006 both repairing and refurbishing these pedals. They have been able to find the 'best off' designs and parts and make new clones that 
will not disappoint.
                  CONCLUSION __
This is the sound of the electric guitar on some
thousand or more records. Well made and not
overpriced and never goes out of date or is
ruled by fashion. 
.....In 1971 I took my Triangle Fuzz to the UK where I used it 
           for years & years & for hours every day thru my Plexi. 
                  This one says buy me???

   

FUZZ- CRAZY TUBE CIRCUITS Triptychon___NEW ___ killer Fuzz x 4 =

$350.00 USD

Another CTC pedal that like the last 3 or 4 are flat out no competition killers. You get 3 Fuzz types in one pedal. A Fuzz Face, a Vox Tone 
Bender, a Tone Bender Mk 1.5 and Tone Bender Mk2. It also has 
both a Rangemaster Boost mode and an Octave mode. 
              ___
     CONCLUSION ___
Perhaps arguably not a perfect clone of every
cloned pedal you get what sounds like the 
deluxe version of the original that somehow
never got made until now. 
 

DELAY- BIYANG [Baby Boom] Time Machine Analog Delay ...a good different

$55.00 USD
BIYANG 
TIME MACHINE 
This Chinese company is owned and operated going on now to its 3rd generation. This has been in production for 10 years. A classic Analog Delay loosely based on an MXR. The Layout is Time, Blend and Repeat  
A toggle gives you 600ms to 1100ms of delay. 
  __
      CONCLUSION __
It has a refreshing sound by not doing 
the usual Ibanez or Boss topography or 
BBD chips. Reasonably priced and a great 
alternative.

Since you asked, lol. My choice is the $60.00 USD 
NUX DCP-03 Analog Delay an Ibanez clone complete 
with the original Panasonic BBD chips. It is even painted 
the same color as the Ibanez AD-80.

OVERDRIVE- JOYO TaiChi ...Dumble-ish Zen Drive

$50.00 USD
 JOYO 
 T A I C H I 
A bit obvious with the 'Voice' knob that this is not just a Dumble 
pedal but the classic Zen Drive version. So of course the layout 
includes a Gain, Volume and Tone.
     CONCLUSION __
It sounds a bit thin compared to the original but in 
spite of that it has a very airy and pleasing sheen.
Demon FX does a part for part clone of the Zen Drive 
called the Z-Drive. A bit hard to fine but Etsy has 
some for $45.00 USD.
