Probably Pork Loin + Swollen Pickle (duh!) ?
Hopefully that switch is 3 way! drool
no 3 way, but i think that's probably a Pork Loin + a Russian Pickle (and not a Swollen Pickle).

Cool pedal.
A bass pork and pickle in the camel toe enclosure would have been better.

UGH - I was in the process of drawing up a Mr. Huge comic to pitch that exact thing to Jeorge: A Pork Loin and Swollen Pickle together in a Camel-Toe style dual box. I even came up with a new name for it: What's the most delicious way to have pork and pickle at once? CUBAN SANDWICH.
Maybe one day I'll finish the strip and post it up here for shiggles. But I'm bummed out now.

Wonder if it could be modded for a three way switch? I’m going to ask Way Huge.
I think the bigger question for many is did they use your modification to make it better?
If not, they were not listening to this board.
Cuban sandwich preorders open yet?
Looks like a great pedal for people who need a all in one dirt box. Double foot switch toggles would have been nice, but for what this offers I don't think many would complain. Seeing as I'm always cascading distortion or OD into a dirty preamp style pedal I might check this out.
You clearly don’t hangout here much.
IMO the Swollen Pickle sounds best with an OD in front of it. I haven't tried the Russian variant, but I really hope this thing can be modded to stack the two clipping stages.
Even without it, I may still pick this up.

They said it can’t be modded for a three way (not sure I believe them on that one) and there’s no way to stack it.
Hah.
Well. I mean. Whatever.

Stacking seems like a bad (or at least very hard) idea to make work. There are only one set of controls on the pedal. Unless your favorite settings happen to be identical for each pedal, it wouldn’t be very useful. I’d be more interested in any tweaks to the original circuits. Specifically if the Russian Pickle had a little less treble.

I'd certainly buy this over the regular Russian Pickle strictly for the addition of a blend. The Pork Loin I don't anticipate I'd use much, but having it on tap is still super cool.
Well, I just ordered one. It cost me £184 in the UK and will be with me early next week. GuitarGuitar have just received their shipment. I was asking about it so they gave me a special pre-order from their warehouse.
Was about to buy an EHX bass big muff deluxe but this (way Huge) has the blend and bonus of Pork Loin when needed. It’s definitely the Russian Pickle inside. Apparently the curve trim pot is inside now. Looking forward to next week now!

Perhaps they would consider this in a deluxe version someday. And while it is a Russian Pickle rather than the Swollen Pickle circuit, the Cuban angle still works...
