This time a Cusack Project 34 Selenium Rectifier Pre/Drive. The introductory run sold out in the first day or two, so I pre-ordered one from the next batch. I've had time to play with it, and it's a terrific overdrive/preamp pedal. In the 1930s, before germanium or silicon, selenium rectifiers...

This is me, with a friend, in the late sixties. That's me standing behind the drivers side door of my 1964 Rambler American, that I bought for $300 and put over 100,000 miles on. A lot of those miles were in trips from Grass Valley, CA, to San Francisco to take in concerts at Bill Graham's...

Sale cancelled.

I thought somebody might be interested in this: Knife Center has a huge clearance sale on select Benchmade and Spyderco knives, plus a lot of other brands. Examples: a Spyderco Endura model with a 3.8"wharncliffe blade, and K390 steel, for 52% off regular price; and a Boker 2.75" frame lock...

Let's take a little detour to 1969...

I just saw this. Happy Birthday @aarontunes! May Fortune smile for you and bring you happiness.

I would think it is adequate, the new ones are very accurate. I have an in-house tech who does all the intonation, etc, and I'm forgetting what he uses, but it's a good sized unit mounted to the wall. I know that's no help, sorry.

It's very useful - brilliant pedal. It serves as the modulation/chorus on that board. It is more in the DC-2/tri-chorus vein than it is a CE-2 variant like most choruses are (e.g. no warble). It is not a subtle effect, it's very deep and lush, and the different modes - and the addition of reverb...

New pedalboard day, that is. I just finished putting this together and playing it a little bit. It's pretty simple but covers a lot of ground. And the pedals all talk to each other very nicely - I can turn them all on and it still sounds good.

Very versatile, great sounding medium gain overdrive. Perfect working condition, like new appearance. Velcro on bottom. Getting hard to find good used ones. $160 shipped - continental US only.

My Meridian arrived today. It definitely has a learning curve, but once I played it for a while, turning knobs, it started to get pretty intuitive. Every sound I could conjure up just kills - deep and lush or wild and metallic. It has a huge range of effects in it - some I didn't know existed...
