  2. Verify it, dude. Sounds awesome - which is not a surprise. Nick Greer's work is simple and awesome. The Suckerpunch is the best sounding Marshall drive around! You should do that one sometime! Also - sorry if I stole Dragão's thunder...

  3. No harm donne, Chris! Any Greer enthusiast is my brother. I was going to roar that (the verify thing), but since you win the race, I just have to send my deepest gratitute and admiration to the gentleman author of this monumental blog. Thank you, sir!

    PS: And yes, I agree: the Sucker Punch is a great piece of Rock!

  4. Third Greer pedal I've made and I think I'm fan. The only sub I did was a linear pot for the gain because I didn't have a log 1m. However, I did add an optional 18v charge pump as the original can run up to 18v with more headroom. It's a pretty good addition I would recommend to anyone building it and has an extra 7660s.

    1. The tone control worked on mine. What I couldn't get on with was the sizzle behind the tone.

  8. Built this a while back and it has since become my go to dirt pedal. It's paired up with a jfet clean boost that hits it pre-gain and sounds awesome. I definitely recommend this layout.
