Yes. I will make a noise and record it a bit later and let you know. It sounds great with everything so far. The vib is insane.

If I stopped being lazy I could record my Vox AC30/4's trem, so lovely, and it can get deep and slow or super warbly. both fun, and can induce sealegs :D

I was learning Bang Bang by Nancy Sinatra at one point and it sounded SO good.

Balanced the PI yesterday and laughed at the resistors I pulled. 82k was 107k and 100 was 115.. almost perfect.. ;) replaced that with 100 and 110k 1% Dales and another 22k for the tail. Used a 33k trimmer. Meh. Too much action. Removed trimmer and by chance the resistors landed right in the sweet spot with a PI tube swap.

SWEET! It sounds very solid.

Only thing left to do is set the cascade ratio while it's cranked and give the thing a name. A sad day. I am out of amps to hack.

:(

Would love to hear him play a show through that instead of all the Fulltone pedals. Okay, the amp and a wah-wah .

Ok, you are on time-out, Mister. Your past responses just made me spew 24oz of coffee that were waaaay to hot to drink.

On the other hand, he sounds pretty good through those Fulltone pedals
