That shit was maybe ok back then. The 90s/early 00s were a different time.

No, it was pretty stupid back then too. Even on the good drugs. It's like they handed the company over to Pauly Shore.

3D printed enclosures are stupid and ugly AF
I haven't seen one that looks sturdy enough to step on, they all look like a preschool art project and they seem like a hot mess with grounding issues. The only thing that will make me close a page faster is seeing "single moms" in an article complaining about anything 
printed enclosures is big clown energy

Borrowed a muffeletta (tldr- it's meh) and confirmed a few things. I'm 100% biased toward the green Russian setting. My vintage sovtek sounds 1000% better than any setting available on the muffeletta including the green Russian. The pedal itself is so overly complicated for what it actually does that it's kind of annoying considering the differences are so minor. A technical feat that's just splitting a single hair 7 times. NY was my least favorite.
I may shit on Josh too much but I bet he made the JHS setting the loudest in hopes that more people might use it, mistaking the "loud" for "more good."

Pre-diy me got one and it took me a long time to enjoy it. Then I started A/B-ing it to muff circuits and found that there was no setting on mine that sounded like the circuits that it supposedly matched. Way more mids which admittedly isn't bad in all respects. I've found a few settings on it I liked but my unit does NOT actually sound like a bunch of stock muffs in a box.

TBH even when you listen to the paid demos of that or the Packrat, you'll hear that it's just a couple different shades of "not-quite-there" and you're basically stuck to one setting anyway. Put a couple of mode switches and another pot or so on a Rat and it's infinitely more "versatile".

Same with the Bonsai.........the JHS setting is the loudest of the bunch.
TBH- listen to the demos of folks build of their JimiLee super rat. Much more to my liking. Many more useful options than the commercial JHS offering.

I thought about labeling the resolution knob on my sonic reducer "worse" but a lot of knobs could be labeled that way.

Ah man, that gave me an idea
My prints are never pretty, but these units will be great for testing stuff and loaning things to my bandmates.

Light up led footswitch rings are ugly AF and big clown energy. Instant nope for me. The only thing as close to being this offensive is a giant amp jewel on a small pedal

Agree on the rings 100% Actually I agree with the jewel thing too but I did it to my vibutron anyway. Sometimes (cough, often times) I like things that are stupidView attachment 70353
