Donned, is there a target tone(s) you are trying to hit with the beest?

Well its basically a hot rodded HB pushed from the front --- one of my favorite tones has always been a boosted HB, it just adds some magic , especially with weaker pickups...

the particular confluence of distortion/compression and EQ is unique and while other drives will hit the same level of distortion, its the balance of the other ingredients that makes it such a simple pleasure to play.

I guess its the particular balance in BJs variation of this design.

SO the goal is to sound like a clean boost in front of a HBOD or more like a treble booster? A Ge TB is a fantastic stack!

Sorry for the misspell on your name I did that on my phone and it spell checked it. My close up vision is failing fast. I need an iPad sized iPhone!

Well part of it is a targeted boost in a particular spot in the circuit .... even with the dirt all the way down it is already 'smoky' .... so even with the weakest pickups out there you should still be able to get plenty of usable finger pressure dynamic dirt ..... and when you whack it with hummers it will roar like a beest.

That sounds great Donner! Exactly what I am looking for! Can’t wait for the final BeeST to be released.
