Maybe this is old news. I searched, but didn't find anything. Anyway, they look cool to me so I ordered one. Now I can finally do a comparison between the Black Cat Bass Octave Fuzz, Bogdan Pole Master, and the B:Assmaster. http://malekkoheavyindustry.com/inde...edition-pedals |

I've been meaning to buy a B:Assmaster for a while. The etched enclosure made me finallly do it.
The only problem is that the etched enclosure only comes in the silicon version. Didn't all the other special editions come in either silicon or germanium? |

I was mainly speaking for others with the silicon/germanium comment. I think I'll actually like the silicon better. The germanium clips sound a little muddy to me. |

I figure it will look nice next to this:
Add in a couple custom etched pedals and I'll have a nice industrial look to my board. |

I dig these, but I want a Swankbox. Should have bought one when they were still around.

JayFuji did those boxes. You can see his symbol on the face.
Our guitarist has a tinybox fuzz of Jay's. Awesome build.

See is they're offering the expanded frequency range mod with these, my boobies edition has it and it's worth it. |
