Way huge Pork and Pickle
- Thread starter 254 stringer

I was half expecting to see some sort of mutant submarine sandwich.
They call it “British-voiced preamp”.
The real question is if this can replace both of the pedals for live playing.
The "clean" is a voiced preamp - AKA it's going to have a different sound than a "dry" signal. A dry signal is a signal that is completely unaffected and not voiced by the pedal at all.
I remember alot of users (myself included) were not a fan of the "clean" voicing - thus a simple mod was in place to fix that. Swaps the voicing of the "clean" channel to a true "dry" channel.
OoooOoOoOoOoOoOo I'm excited about this one nad what mods might pop up. Love my JohnK modded PL
this delectable dish combines the warm, soft-clipping tones of the Pork Loin Overdrive and the rich, fatty tones of the Russian Pickle Fuzz in a single package.Probably Pork Loin + Swollen Pickle (duh!) ?
Hopefully that switch is 3 way! drool
So by the looks of it, it's either a Russian Pickle or a Pork Loin at the flick of the switch? I don't get it. Why wouldn't you make them stackable?
I have Pork Loin and started thinking about buying Russian Pickle or Russian Muff a while ago... This pedal could be really cool!

It says on Reverb: "Blend a sauced up clean signal with either circuit" - this means British style preamp from Pork Loin could be used with Russian Pickle circuit!
It's kind a stackable!
Hi, I'm Uncle Hanky, and I'd like to give my money to Way Huge.
Hm - Pork Loin + Russian Pickle for same price as either. Seems like a no-brainer to me, unless they changed the circuit/sound of either...
i like it but wouldn't having the footswitch toggle between them make sense?
Pork Pie and Pickle is MUCH more interesting....drooldrooldrool
Dang. An answer to my recent whines for help selecting a versatile drive pedal with clean blend. Guess it's going on the ol' Wish List..
Can't wait for this pedal to come out! It's going to be AWESOME! I have high hopes. I'll be getting a handful into my shop and I can share my review after I test one out for anyone that's interested.
One concern I had with the Pork Loin is that the clean side can clip a little too easily with a hot signal. To gain more headroom, you had to run it at 18V. I doubt they addressed that and you probably can't run this pedal at 18V either.
