Very sweet man, love that Echobase. The wood vs. metal is very tasty.

Nice one man the wood is all rosewood I got from a luthier friend, I'm just trying to get a few things caught up on before I delve into your Echo Park rehouse.

Just finished up a new multiples unit for my Moogerfoogers. This one has 5 banks, and you can disconnect the CV source from the rest of the multiple chain.

Please, tell me that's not John's version of an SRS EQ Exciter.

Now would that be a good thing or a bad thing?

Well, it's a circuit I'm interested in. So, that would mean more of my money would be going to John and I can't really afford to spend any more money right now.

That pedal looks awesome and I'd bet it sounds even better.

Yes sir, made some smaller changes to get it working better.

Describe this one, plz.


It's a growly steam roller of a fuzz. Huge low end (variable with the fat knob) but it's more of a feel/tonal adjustment
so you tighten up the sound as well as scaling back the low end . The Tone knob is a two pole mid cut somewhat.
Full counterclockwise is doom city, mega scooped...CW is big mids/high mids and ripping .
The FAT knob along with the tone control yields wide tonal variations. Low end, mids, cutting articulate fast riffing
and then dialed up to big sludgy air moving low end bombast. Even played at lower volumes you'll get those speakers moving.
The gain is about as much at a fuzz face but it sounds nothing like that. Think melvins/part chimp/etc
