Collateral FX The Lost Fingers of the Hand of Doom

[Guilherme Collateral]

I really love treble bosters and I’ve been experimenting with Range Masters and Red Roosters for a few months and wanted to do an Sabbath related artwork. The transistor of choice was an Tesla 156NU70. Sounds really good with a really low noise floor.

I've seen those knobs for sale and often wondered how on earth I would use them. Seems you have found exactly how to use them. What a great looking pedal! I like the enclosure too.

So the Tesla transistor allows for a low noise floor? I love the Red Rooster but mine are always fairly noisy. The only things is that right now I wouldn't buy a Tesla!

What's he to do? Goop that component?

Those red knobs indeed look wonderful. Somewhat kitch away from a panel, but in the proper context they look great; here they actually have a somewhat fierce look, instead of a technicolor variation on 60s sci-fi.

I had this knobs for almost a year and never got something cool to do with them, but got the idea for the red lines in the artwork, over a dark background and things started to look good!

The low leakage of the transistors are key for a low noise floor here, OC139/140 sounds really good too. I’ll record something today and post it here!
