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 3 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 

chips.Reasonably priced and a great 

alternative.

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.

PHASER- ROWIN Nano Phase 90 ___ NEW___ well ...almost new, lol

Rowin 

Phase 90 

$21,00 USD
with free shipping on
AliExpress

This first came out 6 years ago called the Rowin 313 Phaser. 

It is a rebranded defunct Joyo Nano pedal. This version I am sure will disappear if Rowin comply with the cease and desist letter from MXR's lawyers for literally stealing the 

name, lol.

The layout is Speed and a toggle labeled Vintage or Modern. Modern is simply Vintage louder, lol, but so is the MXR, lol.

     CONCLUSION __ 

It is a usable no bells and whistles unit. Do not ask me me about the the mini Rowin it is not better but if you prefer the look go for it. They both lack the crisp clarity 

of the MXR. If on a budget but need that MXR thing 

then get the $115.00 USD MXR Phase 95. Dave Friedman literally told me to get one. He uses one on his board. 

He is right, lol. I have had mine for years.

 

                           

OVERDRIVE- BROWNE AMPLIFICATION Gritador ... a Tube Screamer clone

 BROWNE AMPLIFICATION 

GRITADOR |

$230.00 USD

What can anyone say about a 3 knob Tube Screamer that has 

not been said? There are hundreds. The latest trend is not to 

improve the so-called weaknesses of weak bass & the excess 

of the upper mid boost but to allow you to cover all 3 versions 

or even do a transformation of turning it into both Brit amp-ish 

medium gain Crunch and a high gain Metal pedal as well. 

     CONCLUSION __

The build and quality are stellar. It is a love it or 

move on choice. For a cheap but pro the $40.00

Caline Emerald Night a very accurate TS9 clone

with a Keeley mod thrown in on a toggle. For an

'all in' the new $150 Warm Audio Fluff Drive with 

TS9, Brit Crunch & high gain Metal in one box.

                             

MODELER & PROFILER- NUX MG50Li ___NEW ___is the future all the tech in one box?

Perhaps not this unit or even the NUX brand 

but the near future in all probability will be 

an all in one concept unit. 

FUZZ- E-H Big Muff PI 2 w/Tone Wicker___NEW___with whip cream & a cherry on top

electro-harmonix

BIG MUFF Pi2  WICKER

$140.00 USD

This is the 3rd spinoff since JHS and E-H got together to make the V.2 Big Muff.

The original was designed by Bob Myers. It is a long story but 

he also designed a second OpAmp model that was never made.

He is in his 90's but he still has the plans and bits and pieces of the prototype. Last year all pitched in and out came a standard edition of the unit quickly followed by smaller size basic model and now we get the original but with a Wicker Mod. It bypasses some capacitors from the original circuitry and the pedal boosts the highs and adds a lot of bite. 

The layout is Volume, Tone and Gain. A toggle bypasses the tone for an open raw sound. A toggle for the Wicker voice allows for Full or Half.

            CONCLUSION __

This is the one to get if as you are getting the original 

one with the very usable extras off. E-H have resisted 

charging you extra for the hype etc.

the price is very fair. 

 

OVERDRIVE- ROWIN Dumbler ... best of the mini pedal Dumble's???

$15.00 USD
on AliExpress
Free shipping

Rowin  

DUMBLER | 

First lets get its degree out of the way. It is a very well made pedal 

that Mooer make and sell or have sold with their own brand printed 

on the casing. They also take that same pedal and supply them to 

at last count 36 other brands.In short the only difference are the 

graphics and sometimes the paint color. 

It is so-called Dumble-in-a-Box. Like the real Dumble amps no two 

brands are alike, LOL. The layout is Volume, Gain,Tone & Voice. 

Voice being a mids sweep mostly thru the upper mids.

    CONCLUSION ___

It has been around for over 10 years.

Back then Mooer sold theirs for $60 

as the Rumble Drive. If they still sold

it ...it would, could should be $80, 😲

At $15 all you have to decide is if 

you like it. You do not have to love it, 😇
