Black is proud today.

That was 36% pride.   Great job.  That is a great feeling.  enjoy it.

Be happy.  You deserve it!

Money is important, but everything that really matters so often has little to do with it.

I will pray for you more than usual my friend.

^^^^^^^^^^THANK YOU SO MUCH!!  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

He left us a lot.  well done, sir.

I run two EH 12ay7 's with my old old 5881 in my univalve and they sound great. 

It is especially awesome because that pedal totally kicks ass.  I love those Charlie Stringer wahs, but they are not reliable.   

Those look like switchcraft knock-offs:

Those look pretty not bad at all.  If my economic situation wasn't in the crapper I would go in for about half.  Maybe someone could split it 2 or 3 ways.  Those look decent.

I own joyo, biyang, and moen pedals.  I love every one of them. 
This is a good time to be a consumer.
These pedals look like a very serious attempt to field boutique-killers.
To me the Moen's were a far more serious attempt to sell professional level pedals.
This looks like an effort of that calibre or better.  Even the Moen's had stupid graphics.

good info.

As long as you get power tubes tested for average distortion you should be just fine without modifying anything.   


I had an evil Twin long ago.  The clean channel was awesome and got very dirty when turned up, if you could stand being in the same county with it.  The lead channel sounded like moldy ass.  It was a pedalboard special. 

I like lot's of different ones but the one I would not want to be without would be the Barber Direct Drive.

I love that one too and I have never managed to find a layout for it.  Great generic gain.  Sounds great through anything.  i always wanted to build it and use it as a testbed.

Please do not think I am a hater.  I just received a huge Tayda order a few weeks ago.  I am a customer.  So if they are managing to source some germanium pieces, that is good news for us.

Every 1n34a I have ever see looked like this:

The tayda 1n34a looks like this:

These might be a workalike.  I cannot comment about how they would sound.  Probably pretty good.  I have not been doing this as long as most in the forums and I could be mistaken.
