Let the Pastel disappointment continue

Not sure why this is even a thing. Who asked for this or more appropriately what interview identified this as the “secret sauce” to someone’s famous tone? Whatever. There are some sounds in here that aren’t terrible, but the amount of parts compared to ROI is incredibly disproportionate. I did use the MPSA18s because fuck the mojo parts rabbit hole. I also did not attempt to match resistor values exactly. 39k is damn well close enough to 38.3. I was hoping for a little more clean pre available but alas, none to be found. I find once the pre gets past ab noon it starts getting gated. I haven’t listened to enough demos to know if that how it supposed to do but meh. As always I’m glad I didn’t go through the trouble of putting effort into labels etc.

Thanks for the bad memories Josh….
 
Sorry you had to find out the hard way. At least your build looks good. If I recall this pedal had a very long wish list thread 🤷
Thanks man. Def keeps me from going down the road of the peavey pre pedals etc. if I want to sound like shit I’ll just go spend the $50 at musicgoround and then Office Space the MF’er after 5min
