hell, I can't even write, let alone write a poem! Gonna have to leave that to the singers for now. Grateful to have gotten the vibe in spite of that though. I'm a Fender brown/blond trem and Magnatone vibrato junky so I have a feeling it'll be a lifelong friend :D .

Are there any reviews of the Sea Blue Mini Vibe on the forum anywhere? I'm not having any luck finding any.

I got my minivibe yesterday and tested it out on a 62 Bandmaster which has the Fender brownface vibrato and the minivibe can really nail that wonky phase/trem sound and more. It does add some treble and cut the mids a tad so I was worried that it might not go too well with an old tone bender style pedal but it works really well with my DAM MKII. Very smooth amplitude modulation at the higher settings, almost like a perfectly controller volume pedal. Can also get a phaselike modulation that's very smooth with no flipflop like you typically get at the end of a phaser's travel if that makes any sense. Hard to explain. Very nice implementation of the 2nd stomp to switch to a flutter on demand. A keeper for sure and highly recommended for anyone who loves the old Fender brown trem, bias vary trem, and old 4 stage phasers. Thanks to BJ for designing this brilliant pedal.

I've never been very good at putting to words what I hear, but I will try to get something together this weekend maybe comparing with the PPF and CAF.

I look forward to that review since I have both the PPF and the CAF. I'm a fuzz NUT.
Can anyone tell me another brand of fuzz that would compare (even slightly) to the Folk Fuzz?
Is it anything akin to the Skreddy Screwdriver? Thanks!
