It's based on an orange/matamp preamp :D

I ever so badly want to hear sound clips of this pedal...

Nice touch sticking with a citrus theme, given the kind of preamp.

I keep forgetting what FAC controls do. People keep telling me, but then I forget again.

Happy double time pay for 16 hour shift day for me
They damn well better be paying you double time to work a long-ass shift on goddamn labor day.

FAC is a variable high pass filter. Use it to cut/tighten the low end. Lots of different ways you can utilize it depending on your goal.

So I'm thinking since those 212s sold I'm gonna stick with the original plan and make the cab a 218. It sounds meh as a 412 with the speakers I have. So if I do anything 12s and/or that 15, I'm gonna be spending money on speakers. I'd rather spend money on making or buying a 218 for my 70s PA 18s, so why not use this cab. It'll be kinda tight but its a nice smallish manageable size. It'll be sealed so no fancy math equations. It it will need some extra bracing because there will be more speaker than baffle. And won't have to look super pretty because I'm keeping the peavey grill. I def need to start it and finish it this week because Id like to use it for the Windhand show.

But then that leaves my folded 18 empty...we can't have that. I was thinking and maybe instead of an 18 maybe go with one of those super 15s?

What's wrong with the folded 18? I'd assume that would be louder?

Ah, I see. Is that what the Filter knob on a Swollen Pickle is? Or is that a different kind of filter?

I'll ask Cylens if he'd be willing to ship to the US and if he'd have time to do a new batch of pedals :p

But wasn't Nick planning on doing his own version of a matamp preamp, the GT120 OD ?

Otherwise I've seen that JohnK has done one, I don't know if he sells them.


Cool sounds. Not ones I'd necessarily use myself, but cool.
