Check out my custom TBB from Gearmanndude!

Post by grokostimpy »

Check out my custom Time Bomb Boost!
As a special request, Gearmanndude was willing to make mine sideways, "Zvex-style". I also mailed him my own case & knobs because I wanted that brushed-gold 70's Marshall vibe. I also added the waterslide decals myself for the text on it.

If you're not familiar, the TBB is a clone of the original DOD 250 boost/overdrive with premium components. It sounds incredible :thumb: I have it in my chain before a Rockett Animal OD and it stacks wonderfully as well.

What'd y'all think?

I think it looks fucking cool, nailed that Marshall faceplate vibe for sure! Didn't realize GMD was making pedals too?

Sound clips?

There's a bunch of Timebomb Boost demos on YouTube including some shootouts with high-dollar boosts.
Here's one from toneshack: http://youtu.be/O433-19mWFQ

I like it even more as an OD than a boost. I usually keep it just above unity gain with some dirt added. He's only charging $107 for these. Awesome deal, ay? He also makes a "Luther Drive" which is his modded tubescreamer clone. That one is not for me, but I love the TBB. And the Marshally-ness of this one just makes me smile to look at it :)

He's not Jack Black, that much is known. Not sure why it's so hush-hush, so I won't ruin his secret. But once again, he's most certainly NOT Jack Black.

it's not really hush hush anymore. i feel kinda bad for him because there are some people spamming all his personal details on his videos like the know it alls they wish they were. i knew his identity WAY before the youtube noob squadron did :evil:

I still don't know who he is. Probably 'cause I don't watch youtube pedal demos unless linked.
