OVERDRIVE- TONE CITY Nashville ___NEW ___ 2 of them ????

$65.00 USD

 

TONE CITY   
 Nashville 
If this is an obvious Nobels ODR 1 Then what happen to their 
Nobleman version? If it is v.2 why change the name? WTF!
The layout is Volume, Tone and Bass Cut...(low pass filter).
            
      CONCLUSION __
Nobels make the ODR Mini 2 for $80.00 USD 
which is not a lot more. Sooo....


                                 

OVERDRIVE- FULLTONE OCD 'Lux'___NEW ___Crunch & Lead channels

Fulltone  
   OCD 'Lux 
$300.00 USD
A classic in a dual pedal. The Crunch side from the original
v.1 and the classic lead side was what overtime was considered the best, the v.2 was an obvious choice and since has been generally though as the best. both have toggle for 
a second voice, both sides have a standard OCD layout of Volume, Tone and Gain and a toggle for the HP & LP sound.
            CONCLUSION __
The v.2 is arguably all one needs in a single pedal but with a separate boost even a Tube Screamer Circuit tuned to a SRV sound like the King Tone 
Solo would have been perfect.

BITCRUSHER- TURBULENT AUDIO Nyquist Bitcrusher___NEW___ musical fluctuance :-)

TURBULENT AUDIO
 NYQUIST 
$200.00 USD
What is it? Digital works in audio by recording tiny bits of sound 
and then playing them back in an instant stream. If there are 
too few then the playback has a noticeable gap of distortion. 
Chips of such low quality were first used primarily in talking 
toys like dolls.  
The layout helps explain. You get Volume. Slew which toggles on 
more degradation. Frequency chooses a narrow area like the highs 
or lows to be effected. Depth blends the clean with effect. 
A second foot switch triggers in a full on Glitch effect.
           CONCLUSION __
For most of us it is too crazy to use and if we wanted 
really weird then try a ring modulator it is somewhat 
similar but arguably more musically usable.
JHS 3 Series Bitcrusher is $100.00 USD & is as good 
 

OVERDRIVE- ONE CONTROL Cranberry ... Bjorn Juhl's low gain Dyna Red

$145.00 USD
 ONE CONTROL
CRANBERRY OVER DRIVE · 
Most people these days know of Bjorn's designs via Mad Professor 
pedals as the guy has designed most of them. The most notable 
is the Dyna Red that has been with us forever and for good reason. 
The newest version of that is called the Strawberry Red. In either 
case this is a low gain version. The layout is Volume, Drive & Treble.
            CONCLUSION ___
I find it too gutless. Check out 
the Dyna Red clone. 
The MOVAL Dynostaur. 
$25.00 USD free shipping on AliExpress

____ STEVE FRYETTE & his AMPS ____

STEVE FRYETTE   


___THE UPDATER___NOVEMBER 2026___NEW GEAR NEWS___UPDATED 24/7

THE UPDATER
October 2026 

 
I separate the pedals that are a steal from
those who are stealing from you at any price

IF IT IS WORTH KNOWING IT IS HERE FIRST !!! 
____________________________________________________________________________________
MY MONTHLY RANT
Damn elections. There should be a law. Anyone wanting to be head of the country when elected has the people vote online every year to decide if he stays or gets fired. If he gets fired the loser of the election becomes the new leader. If he gets fired a year later, 2 new candidates can run. The perfect leader can last a lifetime. 
A bum gets the boot in a year. 
 
TIME OUT 
___The site went crazy all month. Last year about 1,500 of you guys showed up every day. Now it is 15,000. I think it is because everyone is worried about money and/or whether or not Russia or Iran or China or even America itself will be the catalyst for WW3. People come here  as a diversion. A pedal can be bought or even saved up for by anyone. buying online and waiting gives anyone something positive to look forward to. Keep in mind players from all over the globe come here daily. Even counties like Malaysia, Vietnam and Singapore visit in large numbers.

BEHRINGER REIGNS? 
All 37 of the pedals in the pic are soon to start heading your way. They will come in metal enclosures not their infamous plastic ones, Many will be classic clones but some will be originals.  
The price? How about ___$10.00 USD to $15.00 USD!!!!! Yes some will be that cheap.












 

 TOYS FOR THE OLDER BOYS
some old, some, new, all cool !!!

KINGTONE Soloist
It is not just a Tube Screamer because when used with a Strat it exaggerates 
that Strat bell tone chime and sparkle that tells you that you are hearing the
Stevie Ray Vaughn sound 'totally nailed'.
... for a Strat using it on its classic single coils is a 'must have' 
... for that it merits its $200.00 USD price.

NAM- ZOOM Neurig Amplifier Emulator & FX ___SNEAK PEAK___A1 first impression's


 ZOOM  NEURIG 

$300.00 USD 
Yes yet another NAM pedal with added effects. Like all ZOOM boxes you get well a made 
unit with a pro sound & a lot if not every feature. Nothing less than a manual with 
any of what gets lumped together as a Modeler is ever simple or user friendly 
so a good video is a must. 
                  CONCLUSION __ 
The good news is that most of us are near a fairly large venue like the 
Guitar Center have stocked Zoom products for years. You can 
go down and get a hands on. 
 
 
PROMISED UPDATES? 
The first is a program so you can make your own NAM sounds. Off course if you 
just want to download free ones???  There are 700 thousand to choose from ???  
No that is not a typo.
