I think a delay tourbox would be cool. It seems like delays can be very different from one another.

I think hard distortions could be a fun one. So many boutique-y gainers are focused on this real sweet, soft, polite tone. I call it "expensive tone." LOL

Yeah, a box of real face melters would be sweet.

Doc has a good point,,,You mostly hear of fuzz being used for high gain,
I havent really tried too many high gain distortions, but I couldnt even count the number of as you say"expensive tone" boxes, that I have tried.

Unfortunately, I have nothing to contribute. :(

I actually don't have anymore "face melters." The best I could do would be to offer suggestions of good ones to include, in case others participating might have one, etc.

I would absolutely like to see a Model H in there, if someone would be willing to part with his for the sake of the box. Most folks still haven't gotten to hear one and appreciate the ferocious, awesome power which it contains. :twisted:

Another excellent hi-gainer (and this one is really, really METAL) is the G2D Morpheus from New Zealand. Wow.

Really, about the Model H? I disagree. I don't think that the H is solely or explicitly designed to be a face melter, necessarily. But I do think it's an extremely versatile pedal that can be dialed in to do a number of different things...one of them being face melting, LOL. :lol: But I remember playing thru your Model H proto last summer, and I was able to dial in an absolutely ferocious lead guitar tone, stronger and angrier than I've ever gotten from another BJF pedal. There was absolutely nothing polite about that sound when I was done twiddling the knobs. It was like the "CAF of distortions."

Anyhow, we all hear things differently....

Of course, I'd be willing to contribute my time and skills ... just as I always have, at least up until everything that went down over this past Winter. Now that I'm back online, I can start participating more once again. I've been trying to have more of a presence around these parts again over the last few weeks. It's nice to be back! 8)

Send me a PM or an email if there's anything specific you'd like me to do to help out....

Doc :D
