NUX MG50Li |

MODELER & PROFILER

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, 😇 

 

              

OVERDRIVE- MAD PRO Little Green Wonder ___NEW ___ in fact released 5 minutes ago

M A D  P R O F E S S O R

LITTLE GREEN WONDER

$385.00 USD

Version one was about 20 years ago. Back then all the Mad pedals 

were handmade. This one is too but that is because the new owners 

are putting every effort into bringing the company back into a leading 

role in the present. Recent new versions releases have been damn impressive.

I am sure this pedal 20 years ago started life from the topography 

of a Tube Screamer.

The layout is a simple Volume, Gain but the overall tone is fixed 

and we get Body which is in all probability a mids sweep boost. 

            ___

            CONCLUSION ___

Nothing wrong with this pedal. The pedal may be 

worth every penny but at a hundred less of the hard 

earned other little green wonders there are a lot of 

other little green choices.

thefineprint  

The company make many pedals and some are truly killer. Most of even those 

that are NOT handmade and are indeed cheaper or very, very much worth the 

price should get your intention. The Silver spring Reverb that Robben Ford has 

used for years is just perfect. The Sweet Honey should be checked out as well 

as the Royal Blue.

OVERDRIVE- TSAKALIS AUDIOWORKS AC Master ___NEW ___Vox AC30 & Rangemaster

Tsakalis Audioworks 

AC MASTER

Yes a serious Vox-in-a-Box with a Brian May

touch. A Rangemaster Treble Booster.

The layout is very Vox amp. You get Master, Normal Volume, Top Boost, Tone cut a high pass filter, then Treble and Bass. 

The Rangemaster Boost has Volume, Boost and 

Range. 

      CONCLUSION __

It is very impressive as a main Brit pedal.

In short, instead of a MIAB or, hell 

have both, LOL. 

 

OVERDRIVE- SUTTON INSTRUMENTS Igneus Overdrive ... old school original

SUTTON instruments

Igeneus 

$320.00 USD

It is an old school Overdrive where the builder does not clone another's pedal or try and voice it to be a particular Amp-in-a-Box.  

The layout is Volume, Gain Treble and Bass and Toggles 

for more gain or highs. A Boost side gives you Level 

and a toggle for a dark or bright voicing.

           CONCLUSION ___

I cannot fault it. It is very good. You love it 

or you move on. But hate it??? I don't think so. The knobs are labeled like a clock. Ideal, it should be the law, lol. I keep a ongoing record of all my settings using the clock thing. I have 70 pedals 

to record, lol. 

 

OVERDRIVE- ELECTRONIC AUDIO EXPERIMENTS Limelight ... Bluesbreaker clone w/extras

   ELECTRONIC AUDIO EXPERIMENTS  

LIMELIGHT * 

$250.00 USD

A Bluesbreaker clone designed for Punk band Touche Amore 

about 4 years ago.

Not so different than the Browne Amp Protein that uses a 

Nobels ODR-1 clone to act as its Boost side.

The layout is Volume, Tone, Gain and Boost. A Toggle acts 

as a low cut plus it adds sparkle and chime. 

            ___ 

     CONCLUSION ___

It sounds very good. I would prefer a smaller 

pedal even if it lost the Boost footswitch but 

WTF that is just me, lol.
