Very interesting! Wonder how it compares in sound to the PGC. What a steal at the PCB price point!

Yeah there should be some info very very soon! These PCB units deserve a more extensive review. I mean we've only really had 1 for the LGW here if i'm not mistaken. Anyone pick up one of these PCB's ?

ok, little birdie says the fourth knob is just a two position rotary instead of the switch - more durable....
but tone control is more effecient and the overall tone/sound is even closer to the PGC :wink:

Looks like these start flying out today!

Im really excited about this one. I only occasionally use a compressor and found my PGC DLX to be overkill .. this MP FGC will do nicely for me, and Marty gets to enjoy the PGCDLX :music

I did a comparison a while back between the HW FGC and my PGC. The PGC was much sweeter and had more high end, but rumor has it that the new PCB is very close so I might be trading up as well especially cause of the sustain switch option.
