Spanked Monkey?

Has anyone heard of this mod to the lowly, seemingly venerable Bad Monkey?

I was going to do that mod myself but my mom told me I'd go blind.

Are you talking about Humphrey's "Badder Monkey", or someone else's mod called "spanked"?

There once was a kid who attempted that mod... While soldering, the pedal exploded, burning his family alive. There was people screaming and fire everywhere... I was that kid.

I should note that soldering becomes more dangerous and/or painful with hairy palms.

Safety first kids.

I haven't heard of this mod but I'm currently rocking the Humphrey Audio Badder Monkey that I received in a trade last week and I have been very impressed thus far with how smooth the overdrive is and perfectly the low end is retained.

I saw an ad for one. The ad says that it's "rare". I couldn't turn up any info from the net on it.



Supposedly if you hit the switch it turns into a clean boost like an AC Booster.
