        Do not spend a cent until you have checked out the Tonebone Classic. True bypass, with an overdrive distortion that will rock your world!!

          Change all the 1uF caps to 0.1uF, and the diodes to 1N4148… it’s about $3 worth of parts, and it will blow the Russian version out of the water. I also changed the tone stack on mine to flatten the mids.

          OK… it still doesn’t sound as good as my triangle version… but for $80 it sounds pretty damn amazing!

            OHHHH, that cream and blue russian big muff is my peronal favorite. That big switch sucks, but the most crazy ass-Pumpkins uber gain then it does the J thing for single notes.

            Try a DOD classic fuzz. It comes in a rusty orange box. They are cheap here in the us(don’t know how they’d be iin NZ). It is great, underrated fuzz. Dime it and it will be good.
