OVERDRIVE-WILSON EFFECTS BC109 ...Gilmour and Beck on steroids!!

 WILSON EFFECTS BC109 

In this age of smaller amps and even those that leave their
amps in a clean setting because they use pedals for OD's
I find that pedal makers reproducing vintage pedals that do not
take this into account often find the pro player more then disappointed with the results of their purchase.
Actual old pedals are for collectors and faithful reproductions are for the hobbiest. There are exceptions and I own some but as a rule a hot-rodded vintage circuit is the way to go.


The BC109 is a case in point. What's missing in an original
Coloursound Power Booster ...going thru a 100 watt Plexi
run flat out has been beautifully compensated.
It just doesn't get better then this! Early Gilmour and Beck
nailed!!!



The new version has left the circuit in tact but
made the layout and look much slicker.
If it's not broke don't fix it!!!
