I don't know that it does. It sounds fine in the context of the band. I don't buy all the true-bypass hype and employ many buffered pedals. This was for the one take attempt. Plenty of overdubs with just the essential pieces.

I'd also like to point out that two of these pedals (the plain metal ones) are from Indiana's own RonSound. The larger one is a clone of an original triangle Big Muff that Ron apparently loaned out for use on Super-Elastic by Velo-Deluxe.

The Hotcake sounds brilliant with an AC30. I pretty much leave it on all the time.

You have a hot cake! I love those! I also like that I seem to have triggered a trend here.

Favorites of 2008

2008 was an interesting year for me, although not one in which I kept up with much new stuff. Like most years in recent memory, I bought very little new music (maybe 5 new records), saw very few new films (3 or 4 in the theater), and didn’t go see any big concerts (except maybe the one listed below). This might make me pretty unqualified to write a best of list, but I’m going to do it anyway.

Best Concert

By far the most amazing concert going experience for me was seeing SpiritualizeContinue

Hi Ryan - re:Hoosier pedals
Check out my pal Stiggy:
http://www.stigtronics.com/index.html
I can HIGHLY recommend his FX AND he will clone your favorite designs - he has a ton of circuits.
He lives out in Smithville Indiana
He built me a tweaked clone of a Boss SD-1 that I love as well as a modded clone of a 70s MXR Distortion Plus with switchable clipping diodes [silicon or germanium]
anyhow, check him if yer interested!
Cheers; Lumpy [feel free to mention my name]

Glad to hear from you! It's hard to believe that TMBG has been around for over 20 years now! I've seen 13 of their shows! Now I've got my 8 year old daughter listening to them!

Andy, yeah, I know what you're saying...the Lemonheads then instantly faded into multi-platinum obscurity. That's such a great perspective when most people have no idea the band even existed pre-1992. If anyone bothering to read this hasn't heard t…

Burd, I would never accuse you of being shy about speaking your mind. And I doubt anyone would have thought me anything but a raging snob from way back. And with the anti-Manilow snobbery of the post below, we continue to have plenty in common. FTR:…

John, it didn't seem like good natured to me when I went back and looked. It reeked of pretentious snobbery. Haughtiness. The funny thing is; I'd probably step up and say something if someone was doing it to you. Incidently, there are all sorts of t…
