Broughton Audio Super Thread

Possibly, but I honestly use so little with my signal chain, I don't think there is anything else that I could even put to use, not to mention it's always sold out. I am definitely excited about the HPF though.
Famous last words. Welcome to the first day of the rest of your life.
 
My wife ventured out of the house today, so I plugged my Jazz Bass into my SSDI > Peavey IPR2000 > 1x15 cab. Man, that preamp just kicks butt!

My reference amp is a Fender TBP-1 which gets the slight edge when I kick in the tube overdrive.

But I can make them sound identical, rather amazingly identical.

No bacon today, but I had some Hot and Spicy Chicarrones! Tasty bass and pork skins!
 
Hey all. I'm back :).

I should have a review of the Archetype soon. Living so close to Josh does have its advantages!!!!!

Can't wait!
Welcome back, Duke! I hope all is well in your neck of the woods.

I'm excited for your review of the Archetype. In the meantime, I'm trying to find a suitable case or rack for it.

Yeah, that SSDI is a smoke show! Love the tones!

Welcome back @DirtyDuke !
 
Ok, help me out here, what version on the Messenger do I have? 1.0?

Okay here's the way I understand it, this is not official.

V1 = what you have. Original version.
V2 = same basic thing, but instead of EQ Bypass, there is a Mute switch.
V3 = the current version. Smaller box, one button, one mid control.

Here is the page for V2:

Again, this is not official and I could be completely wrong :)
