So, sadly, they aren't planning on reissuing the Red Llama, at least definitely not sooner than 6 months from now. Damn.
Hahaha, please don't forget to keep us posted when you do :).Quote:

Distortion to suit. It also launches barnyard animals, and has a taunts repeats feature.
Yeah and delay speed simply MUST go all the way up to African swallow...
Definitely coconut-based.
The Pedal That Goes Ni! . . . Ni! . . . Ni! Love it.
I suppose "The Shrubbery" would have to be a fuzz, eh?

I like Voods ZYS MkII.
While I was looking for a distortion pedal I picked up a Marshall Jackhammer OD/Distortion and found it to be an excellent distortion and overdrive combined. This pedal is a sleeper IMHO.
Yeah I found one on ebay a while back too. I definitely do not like the distortion on it, but the OD into a clean amp seems to be good, better than a Bad Monkey anyway. It's loaned out right now.Quote:

IIRC, it has a lot of high-end fizz and not much muscle to it, kind of the tinny, fizzy, faux-metal sound you get sometimes when trying to imitate a very distorted amp. I guess I like a bit more low-end to beef it up if you're going to go in that direction.Quote:

Wow that is odd. What I like about the pedal is that it does not sound like that. I don't like fizzy distortion pedals. I like a beefy distortion pedal with a full range of chunkin bass. Maybe someone has modded my pedal.
I don't have much faith in my ability to tweak appropriately to produce very good tones, so it's more than possible that it's that. What sort of settings do you use? Do you use it with tube amps or SS? Already driven or clean? I'll give it a whirl when I get it back eventually, so it would be good to know how you use it.Quote:

Those are amazing pedals...but they'd better be for the price. Yikes!Quote:
