I really wanna try this thing. I know Taka from MONO uses it.

Well, I only have one and it's a Melx2. Alright, alright, I also have a DD7, but my friend that gave it to me said I couldn't sell it.

I'll have to check them out. I think you would like it, but I might be cooking to my own taste here.

Haha, nothing so exotic, just a plain old fashioned FF that really sings. It's allegedly based on a FF Hendrix actually used that was particularly warm.

Are you saying that the power of purple WOULD NOT grant you some dispensation with aliens?

Because if so I'm going to have to question your commitment to the cause!

No, I mean, obviously even extraterrestrials recognize PURPLE is the superior color choice.

Incidentally, I do have a picture in the mid-fi thread asking ‘someone’ not to eat my pedals. Coincidence?

I got my racks. I’ll be a’ight.

No rack fuzz worth enough of a damn. So it’d be the HEQ-1. Carcosa is a strong runner up, though.
