Don't threads like these make you feel better about yourself? I for one, have very few pedals now that I look at other people's collections and I thought I had a problem :lol: Nothing wrong with that though, it's not really a problem, more like a "habit", yes...yes that's good, I'll leave it at that.

Holy christ. I'm with you poorbob. I have been feeling guilty lately but now i feel like I have a lot of catching up to do. Those DIY's are pretty sick by the way. If your gonna choose a habit, what better habit to choose. Sure as hell beats rehab!

Thanks! it's funny because it IS a habit, and I really do say 'just one more fuzz...' to myself - the Buzzaround is amazing (it deserves a nicer box,but that's all I had to hand), but I've got to try the Elka Dizzy Tone variant next (identical circuit, but with diff values, from Italy). And I should build an FZ1, and an FZ1B....
But I'm taking a break from building for a while, and even thinking about selling a couple of guitars and the wah...

It starts with a trem and before you know it the forum will go all flangey and choruses will be dissected and it will end up all wibbling and wobbling :lol:

I stuck my current pedal board in the group shot, because it has my Sonic Titan on deck. :D Man I really dig the Sonic Titan. I run it on a real low gain setting for just a hint of hair. The pedal is great because it does not kill my bass response like most OD pedals do.

Exactly! I love my old Fender amps set fairly clean and thin, I then use the titan to overdrive into a nice fat saturated sound that absolutely kills with the bridge pickup of my old LP deluxe. Good stuff :)

I played a gig at the Seattle Center Mural Amphitheatre, on Friday, for the Bite of Seattle. A friend of mine has a Beatles tribute band and the regular guitar player was not able to play the gig. I used my 1962 Gibson Lancer, my pedal board plus a Pro Analog MKIII, with my Telecaster. The Sonic Titan set at low gain with the Lancer on about 2-3 was tonal bliss. When I wanted extra gain for leads I would cascade it into my version 1 OCD with the gain about half way. It made my Lancer sound like an AC30 on 10. :D
