Thanks for the kind words. I could do the toggle as a footswitch no worries - there'd be no LED for direction indication though however like with the toggle.

I could do that for £90 + P&P if you were interested. I do bank transfers but my order list is 5-7 weeks long currently and I never take payment until I'm ready to ship the pedal.

As for crazy ideas, it's always worth running one by me, although I'm in the States for 3 weeks from tomorrow.

Ok thats cool, didnt expect LED for the direction switch anyway.

PM me when your in a position to get details of decal etc
I'll be offloading some of my old pedals on ebay in readyness :lol:

As for idea #1.. fOXX Tone Machine with added Green ringer ?? but that may sound like the Osfuzz/ringer combo anyway..

To be honest, you know the score - I'm so busy that:

- I build 'em, I test 'em, I ship 'em

Bear in mind I build pedals in what spare time I get with my day job, life outside work, band etc. Video demos are probably just not going to happen in the forseeable.

I know thats why I wondered (with hope) that's all. I miss your demo's they are a source of great honest views and entertaining as well. I also was wondering what the gain mod was like that was all.

It basically gives the pedal a big kick in the balls - it gets more gain than you can dial in stock and also produces a more thick over the top sound.

If I ever make another, I'll try to do a clip for you. It's a fine addition to the pedal in my opinion.

thanks mike, it sounds like a good mod then and probably makes it as loud as all you other pedals then :) I do love the sound of the Formula 5, probably more than any of the other amp like pedals I've heard and when I get in to a position where I can afford it I will be knocking on your door.

Rangemaster into 70s script Distortion+ - it's a custom pedal a guy ordered for him and his friend.

Benecol did great on the graphics, I'm glad I managed to line up the 3mm blue LED with the decal perfectly!
