I'll probably get one, too. But likely after Nate's break, and reservations open back up.
I've bought a few too many pedals lately, and need to pump the brakes.

Tempted,but I think I'll wait for my Model T Sunday Driver that'll be heading to R.I.soon.I will play and get aquatinted with it first.It'll be my SB cherry and I'm so looking forward to it.I'm positive this'll prompt an SBVT slot.
Any idea when the SBVT will go on the shop list?Correct.
I don't want to spoil the surprise, but yes, this one is a tube pedal. Another generally well-designed tube pedal that uses the wrong tube in a box that's too big, if that gives you enough of a hint
I'm hoping I can get a working prototype finished by the end of the week, which would make it free game for May and June, and a standard option with a product page and everything starting in August.
Don't do it, you'll be sorry. Think about all the downstream reactions if you stop buying pedals.
My Slam X just arrived. My wife wanted to talk about family and weather and local news stories so I had to stare at the box for half an hour. Loving it so far.
The only other pedals I have coming right now are a Resotron filter, a JC Emerald, Robot Butterfly, and Wrecking Ball X, and a Malaise Forever perc fuzz that was special made. I feel like it's important to balance pedal deliveries with other life priorities and I really want a Browne Protein so I am not sure how long I can put that off.

Maybe it's because I'm on IEMs with the Westinghouse and through an amp wouldn't be quite as big a deal, but I still think mine might be in the "Bells of the Sistine Chapel" category. It takes barely a tap to get it to ping pretty good like the recording I posted earlier in the thread. Which is disappointing, because I was really looking forward to the WH.
(sidenote because the Edison was mentioned: I didn't notice any of that microphonic noise when @Chace90 let me borrow his Edison. I didn't explore tapping on it, but I switched it back and forth a good bit during testing and didn't hear any popping/pinging.)
@Sushi Box FX - Once again, it seems like I might be the lone voice for returning my Westinghouse, but I simply can't chance put microphonics directly to the IEMs of everyone in the group(s) and from what you've said, that's just inherent in the EF86 tubes. I'll ping you via PM, I've got an idea for a solve.

Now that I'm finished with the April batch I'll be reaching out to everyone from the March batch to see who wants a new tube, a new board, both, or just a return. About half of the soviet 6J32P I tested last night were Sistine Chapel bell level, so I'm not surprised that some bad ones made it into the March batch as well.Maybe it's because I'm on IEMs with the Westinghouse and through an amp wouldn't be quite as big a deal, but I still think mine might be in the "Bells of the Sistine Chapel" category.

Thanks, good sir. I'll do some thinking and get back to you.

I’ll take a number for that club, if you ever get around to it haha.
Lowendtech
Happily trending in my own peculiar direction.
I’m totally eligible for that club. I can take the minutes during meetings.
just don’t ask me what I did with them or where I put them.
Yeah man me too! I'm one of the guys with the slot reserved, really, really excited about this!
Is it weird that I don't even know what this is but I kinda already have GAS for it?I have no idea what you're talking about
You'll fit the roll nicely.I’m totally eligible for that club. I can take the minutes during meetings.

You're upping my anticipation! Are those yours? How's the Model T treating you?
And me too, as well. I don't care if it takes all summer. I'm sure it'll be worth the wait.
