Dope board! What do you run in your Bloop?
My needs keep changing
I hear you - I'm just messing with ya.
I run just the Rusty Box in the Bloop. The RB is running relatively clean - just gritty with a lot of that high mid grind and super sparkly top end. The Bloop give me a bit more heft and punch in the lows without having to tweak lows and low-mids on whatever amp I'm using. It also makes it more uniform with the rest of my board when I'm not using the RB on 1-2 songs.
I need to suck it up and buy a Rusty Box already.

Bloops are coming. How come no one wants something until it’s out of stock? They sat on the shelf for months. Now they’re a hot commodity.
I have been slowly tweaking the design so didn’t want to make anymore until the new design was ready.
Give me a few weeks to figure it all out. Thanks!

Because we're shaging spoiled a holes and only want what we can't have
My four year old says my distortion toan is whack - he's my only audience. I'm just trying to do what the internet explorer tells me.
Excited for the new design!! Would this be something to look out for on the email newsletter?
Basic supply and demand...there will always be demand when there is lack of supply.
Can't wait until there is a shortage of old fat white guys...

Potentially. E-commerce gurus keep telling me mailing lists are important but I often forget to use it.
Depending on your definition of old, give it 20 years for the boomers to die off and then all these assisted living places will certainly be feeling the shortage.
Helion is solid stuff, but I think the Rusty is king of Traynor-in-a-box sounds. Plus - boost on a footswitch, dual outputs, readily available, and probably cheaper than a Helion. They also look rad AF...
Guilty of this during the previous blooper drought.
This is the key.
Spite Box is a beast. Im excited for y'all to hear it because its a unique approach to fuzz. Every control is additive and it can be both a crushing bass distortion and a searing fuzz depending on how you use it. And you'll never have a shortage of low end!
That Spite Box description looks very interesting.
