OVERDRIVE- BRELLIOT TODP Series 5 ... monster or monstrosity???

BRELLIOT 
TODP Series 5  Overdrive/Distortion 
$300.00 USD
Released in 2022 by it's creator Jonny Brelliot. In Birmingham UK. A place I called home in1976 ...😎. Dirt pedals have used Transistors and clipping diodes for years but no one ever really tries to use every type possible & succeeds in anything honestly usable for anything more than
 
bragging rights, lol. 
The layout regardless of labels is still volume, Gain, and tone. Tone is extensive with 4 toggles letting you cut and or boost at 5 frequencies. 
A rotary switch gives you Silicon, Germanium & LED clipping diodes.
  CONCLUSION ___ 
It has a big cult following and sells primarily by word of mouth.
It reminds me a lot of the DOD Carcosa Fuzz 
and it's dead on perfect clone the Ginean Hairy Show Fuzz.
The Ginean is only $40.00 USD with free shipping. 
Check out the Post. I find a little of this goes a long 
way with these destructo sounds.
In short $300 worth of it is a bit much for some spice.
