Re: Tonesucking pedals
Put the OCD through it's paces tonight at jam. Couldn't really do too much testing as we only had two hours and it was all business. But, it sounds great. I had been using a Barber Direct Drive, but A/Bing the two, the OCD is the clear winner. Much thicker, more transparent, and more versatile. I didn't even try the HP setting, I had the switch on the LP setting the whole time. I think the LP/HP switch adds more gain/volume in the HP position, but I was using a Gretsch hollowbody, so more gain=more squeal/feedback. All in all, a satisfied customer, I am.

A friend of mine went thru at least 40 ODs when looking for the perfect match to his Hiwatt.
He ended up co designing this in collaboration with Mr Himmelstrutz himself: http://www.himmelstrutz.com/fnord.htm
Remember to run it on 12V!

Can I request the guy keeps his shirt on when he builds mine ?

When you meet him MR Himmelstrutz is a n "ordinary guy" with nothing crazy about him, but when you watch his videos (there was quite a few of them on the old site) he comes across as something else!
I remember one video where he showed how to change the battery in a Fetto, wearing a riding helmet, "in case something would go wrong"
I´m sure that he is well behaved (and well dressed) when soldering the pedals
