Kinda NPD... Garmopat modded Vox V8-30 Distortion/Booster

My new love... Ahhh. It's rad though. I've had it for a couple weeks now and haven't had the chance to take a picture, so here gooes! Gary modded it originally for my guitar player & it was fat as all get out for him, but he preferred his Keeley Rat. So, I tried it out. Awesome. Great disto without mudding up when playing fast and can be mellowed to a nice fuzzy growl as well. The controls are Level (top left) Tone (middle bottom) and Drive (top right). I like it with the Level at 12:00, Tone at 0, and Drive at 3:00. It also sounds awesome with the Drive cranked, but feeds back a lot. I've found it's not great with the Tone knob above 12:00 for bass and really anything below 9:00 starts stripping low end, but what can you expect? He modded it for guitar. I'll be stoked if he uses this as a platform for a bass disto though. I'd be first in line.

Here's a little soundclip at my favorite settings. It's direct through the pedal into my TonePort & I'm playing my Epi EB-3.
