A NOTE FROM STU: What kind of absolute maniacs would decide? to recreate a tiny $30 pawn shop amp in a guitar pedal? An amp that no one (except me) thinks is cool. One deliberately designed to be cheap and nasty. Crunchy. Boxy. Buzzy. But... there’s something about that amp... It can do things that nice big amps can’t do. And anyway, shitty is pretty!

I am forever grateful because this pedal rules. It also has some other cool tricks up its sleeve. Like a treble boost. And a “magic” switch. It can actually be subtle if you want. Or extremely wild. You can use a clean amp or a dirty amp. Any guitar, any pickup. You’ll get different results, but always exciting. But you don’t need to know any of this. You just need a guitar.

We recreated that setup on our side and spent time with it until we understood where it starts to come apart. There’s a point where the amp stops smoothing itself out. The breakup shifts, the response changes, and the whole thing starts behaving in a w
