$350.00 USD REEVES E L E C T R O
FACET IZ
On the surface it is simply a Fuzz Face with a tone control.
Like all Reeves pedals every part is the best of the best
and many parts the best is NOS of parts not made in
5 or 6 decades.CONCLUSION ___Reeves are both a pedal and a work of art. They are a total indulgence. A Ferrari for those who are afraid of speed, LOL.
SuperCool Pedals
The THNEED
In my opinion the big deal about the Klon is its clean boost stage.
$200.00 USD
It comes on at about 7 o'clock on the gain stage and literally fades
out as a different mid gain stage fades in while the boost fades out around 9 o'clock. I love the boost stage of the Klon and I find the overdrive stage budget brand mediocre.This pedal throws that overdrive stage out and replaces it with
not just one sound but several you can get at inside the pedal.
The first video covers all that.
CONCLUSION __
Love it. It has some very inspiring sounds. I expect it could
be an incredible boost to take the sound of for example a
great MIAB into several new categories. Think of a pedal
you own that is the perfect 'cake' but using this to add
different icing's.
$30.00 USD MOSKY AUDIO Classic Series
Purple Box -preamp
NUX have had a very impressive range of classic pedals for 5 years and others Mosky have finally caught on. This is Mosky's beefed up take on the Xotic BB preamp 1.5. Xotic is old school. They make pedals that are primarily to meant to act like hot rodding the amp you own. They are NOT an Amp-in-a-Box. The best thing about that is they do not have to compare to the yardstick of a real amp.
It is more like the Fuzz thing. It is simply more about do you like it or not. If you don't it is more about taste than tech.
The layout is Volume, Gain, Treble and Bass with a toggle that adds
more saturation by compressing the signal.
CONCLUSION ___
It sounds good. You like it or not. It looks cool and the price is right.The tone is all mids with an almost low gain Fuzz sound.
I find uninspiring but usable.

More V.2
It is more of an enhancer than what most of us call a preamp.
$265.00 USD
It is not about standard EQ or overloading the amps pre to
make it distort. It uses 2 preamp tubes. They are similar to
the usual 12AX7 but with less gain. A 12AV7 and a 12AT7.
Although not the same the Dr. Z amps have a similar circuit.
CONCLUSION __
The objective was to give your sound more sparkle
and clarity and a slight 3 dimensional overall vibe.
It does indeed do that. I would prefer that I could
do this but with a bit more exaggeration. A bit of
in your face. It can however take a quite good tube
clean amp and make it sound like you spent a
thousand more for audible bragging rights, 😇.
thefineprintThis little sweetheart, the NUX Lacerate usesFETS to give it a very similar effect. I likethat you can get inside the box to givea much more exaggerated vibe.A $70.00 USD price doesn't hurt either
TEACHING MACHINES
FuzzBillion
$580.00 USD The first and probably the last of the electronic devices
to create audio flatulence ...Just dial in all 11 controls
& you instantly get a sound even a Shoegazer would
be challenged to use.CONCLUSION __
___WTF were they thinking of!!!!If the average player can not find a greatsound from a pedal in 5 or 10 minutes maxit is on its way to the grave yard.
It takes 1 minute on a Muff or a Tone Bender
& that's with the lights off ...on a dark stage.
$100.00 USD NUXTUTTI
Exploring the layout tells its story. You get Dry, that blends
your guitar signal with you octave one. UP/BSP, it adjusts
level for octave up plus lets you crate a split point where
note higher then the setting do not trigger the octave. SUB
is the level for the bass octave sound. A toggle switches
from standard Poly mode or Bass or you can set the
footswitch to momentary.
CONCLUSION __
It has very good natural sound. It does not sound
synth like, but guitar like. Lag time is unnoticeable.
Tracking is dead on. Sonically it is up there with
the very best!!! The price is totally reasonable.
ABSOLUTELY NOT !!!!

BALTIMORE SONIC RESEARCH INSTITUDE
Impossible Colors |||
If this company was a Cancer Research Institute their next
$240.00 USD
big announcement would be that cigarettes cause cancer, lol.
In short these guys are laying the hype on with a trowel.
They could win back some respect if they changed the
name to Baltimore Sonics Flying Circus.The layout is Volume, Texture messes with the BIAS.
Voice, which is a Tilt EQ so you do not lose all your lows by pushing up your highs. and Attack allows going from a near
clean click from your pick to something softer but still with
some grit. The Range switch works with Texture as a kind of quantity off ...control. The Depth switch gives you
dynamics over saturation. the Mode toggle appears to your clipping diode options. This pedal uses a transformer on
the input for faux dynamics & sag. Nice!
CONCLUSION ___
It is the yet another of the never ending OpAmp wondertoys.
It has very much a silicon vibe to it and is more Muff than
Tone Bender. That said there are few basic sounds especially
the gnarly ones that I find very appealing. The thing is once
you scoot pass $200.00 USD you want some Oh f.ing WOW!!!
I am not wowing this one.
For those in the poverty bracket I again strongly suggest
a $35.00 USD GOKKO AUDIO JK-61 Mogwai with its OD
or Fuzz magic toggle.
