I'm finally getting my second Trombetta pedal. It's going to be a Mark 1 tonebender clone, but with a few tweaks - a fat switch, a presence, and perhaps my favorite, a footswitchable octave up.

But perhaps the coolest part of this pedal is going to be the finish. It's going to look just like this - with two knobs though obviously, but in the same enclosure, with the same finish, but with a pot leaf etched into the front.

I'm so excited. Paul makes the best sounding pedals I've ever heard, and when I went to his place and tried this circuit I knew I needed. That was this summer so I'm really excited to get this.



The pedal above is actually a plexi pedal. It's unique in that it uses a pair of plexi preamps - the high and low channel volume controls, which can be blended to taste. On top of that, there's the kush preamp on the left side. It's based on a bassman preamp and goes from clean boost to crunchy drive. Combining the two gives the best plexi tone I've ever heard from a pedal. If I needed that type of pedal, I wouldn't even consider anything else.
