Here's mine! I'll soon add an EHX Bass Micro-Synth.

Almost the same as my last post, but after a practice with the other set-up I realized that I needed to swap some positions for ease of stomping

Signal chain is

Tuner -> Tone Hammer -> Ockham's Razor -> (in O.R. loop Narwhal -> Howl -> Big Bear reverb ->Mockingbird ->) -> MessDrive -> Amp

The Howl beat out the tremolo in the last battle royale mostly because the trem pops like a mother when I engage it.
 
Very Nice J.R.

I still love the way that Mockingbird looks. I'm a bird fan. Is that silkscreen? Handpaint?

The Big Bear is cool too.

Need and Owl on that Howl though; or a wolf. :D



l'inspiration:

Howl.jpg


The first lines of which are:

"I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness,
starving hysterical naked"

The controls are "Volume" "Madness" and "Hysteria"


As far as technique, I wish I had the resources to silkscreen but those are transparencies affixed with adhesive and covered in clear coat.
 
There's not really an appropriate graphic for "destroyed by madness, starving, hysterical" is there?

I dig the pedal names. And you're one of the few other people that I know that spell it Ockham instead of Occam.

Back to actual pedal talk, what are each of yours clones of?

A few are GGG kits

The Howl is a TS808 clone, but with switchable clipping. The switch selects between asymmetrical diode clipping (a la BOSS SD-1 which is a little tubier than the 808's symmetrical clipping) and LED clipping which is really warm

The Big Bear is a clone of the Hermida audio reverb. Stock

The Mockingbird is the GGG delay kit, and while it's digital, it has a very analog sound.

The Narwhal is a BOSS Slow Gear clone

and The O/R is basically a swiss army knife for my board with an A/B switch, a Loop, a 15db booster, and a footswitch to work the mute on my amp (or any generic amp foot-swtichable control) - It's all TBP, but I'm working on a version with a buffered loop.

Re: Ockham/Occam, I guess I'm just representing for William of Ockham. I like to give credit to the Franciscans where credit is due.
