i dont have art yet, been waiting on the artist for a bit now. But we still have to go and make all 4 of the main units (although we are closer to having those up for sale) then the ODB, FuzzThrone, and the DA120. So short answer is unlikely until later in the summer at the earliest for the full size units

I store my big gear where I record, at my work. I usually let people use my amps and cabs if they want to. My Ampeg 810 has been on almost every recording I've engineered and the Traynor YBA-1 has made a lot of appearances as well.

Anyone kinda like a bit of low end loss sometimes? More so with VEGA, but I kinda like dubby booming lows for cleans and then a little less for the fuzz tones so it meshes with guitar more for a mono riff sound, theres still plenty of bass to be destructive and heard but its not dubby sublows anymore.

That's my tone these days. Less emphasis on big dirty lows, more emphasis on mid-range bite & punchiness. The Chinabacker excels at that tone. Prior to that, I was doing well with a Mexi-P. In both cases, picking really brings out that attack I need to cut through (overtake?) guitar in the live mix.

What exactly does the LS-2 do here? is it for blending the 2 sounds back together into a single signal?

indeedy, i was surprised that it does the job so well. A+B mix mode. with the cthulhu at 9 o'clock max on the FAC it sits beautifully on top of the bluebeard tone.

here's a quick snippet of a jam for you guys. this is bluebeard tone bypassed and cthulhu used solely for top end, with the bridge pickup volume rolled back slightly. it's done with a single zoom recorder in a practice room so i'm mostly in the "right" channel, and a bit of top end is missing due to mic position, but you get the gist. i'll do some real recordings one day.

if the y cable is noisy it sounds like the shield on it is bad and you should consider replacing the cable. The other idea you could do is run a TRS cable at either ends into a box, one is a buffered pass thru to the BB (which is okay with a buffer) and the other is split off to the CF so you dont mess with that impedance.

Leela looks awesome. Copycatting you, we are welcoming a new female puppy into our home tomorrow. Can scarcely afford a new mouth to feed, but we could use the fuzzy love.

We have a male chihuahua with some mini-pincher in him.

The puppy we are rescuing tomorrow is a 6 week old girl...half chocolate lab, half blue heeler. Gonna call her Violet I think.

Pretty fvcking doom.

Post pics! Leela's dad is an Australian Shepard, mommy a blue heeler.

She's named leela because of Futurama, but my friend says she should be called nibbler if she was to be one of the characters.
