  1. Do you sleep dude? I remember the Daddy-o sounding good. I had one around Y2K. Always hated the fifties diner look of it though.

    1. Nah, just staying home with the virus; thing is easily getting out of hand...:-p.
      Thanks for reminding me of the Daddy O. Gotta find a readable schematic before I can tackle that one, though.

    2. Hello

      I think this is a tweaked OCD. What do you think of the tone? Like it?

      Thanks

    3. I think it is pretty close to a Maxon Distortion Master...

    4. the tone stack was not at all what i was expecting. in the original pedal, the bass/treble are controlled by the same knob, but i think having them split into two pots is super useful. when cranked, the treble has a massive upper-mid boost sound. really digging it on my mustang. matches the demos i've seen on youtube exactly.
