Dunwich Amplification General Discussion

I'm glad that I've managed to have kept all of my Dunwich. Family Photo:

Btw, 2 of these were built by Magic Pedals. Magic Spiegel does an awesome job (if anyone didn't already know)
 
I only have the Wizard 125B, but love it (except for a weird thing where it takes a worrying amount of pull to remove cables from the jacks). The thing I'll miss about Dunwich is the custom art. It's probably not something I would personally ever feel the need for, but I think almost of his graphics are incredibly cool
 
True, which really means that nothing has changed except for the rarer one-offs and limited runs. No reason imo for the elegies. Dunwich is still around, and the same person who made most of the pedals before is still doing it.
The thing here to note is that Nick stepped up the game of making pedals, big time. I have seen countless posts from pedal builders over the past few years, all showing gut shots of Nick's creations....they were always saying how brilliant his board layouts are, and how he wired them up seemed to be an art form in itself. Many great pedal builders have gone to Nick for his help and direction in their own designs. Nick has made a huge impression in the community. For that we should all be grateful. Nick's the man.

No doubt.
 
I've got a white Bass Overdriver in a 125B enclosure I'd like to trade. Gave it a shot, but I like rat-based tones more for the stuff I'm doing. I'm assuming most folks in here know about Nick's BOD design - clean blend, 3 clipping options, bass, treble, and tone controls. It sounds great and is in near mint condition except for the velcro.

If anyone has a volt thrower they'd like to trade for a BOD, please PM me.

^^^ So much this! ^^^ And not to forget the tube amps.

Love his work. I've sold a Volt Thrower, Riff Filled Land and Fuzz Throne over the years, but still have a few. Blackblood, DoomFinder, Wizard Fuzz, Spatial Rift and Temporal Rift are currently on my board(s).

This is a good moment for a family pic though:

Thank you Nick.

Here's a quick run-through of the different clipping modes while a bassline loops, which I made by request from someone on here. There's a warmer sounding demo out there with some beefier sounds, but not much else to speak of for folks that want a sense of what it can do. This demo is on the brighter/crunchier/grindier side, the track itself has marks as to when the effect is engaged and what clipping mode is being used.
