What's on the workbench?

Anyway, I think it's an expandora with extra options isn't it?

Yep, that's basically it, there's also a boost with pre/post order switch.

There is a schematic available and while it's not too far off I suspect it's a best guess and not an actual trace of the Kilt. The Low Cut switch is missing and some of the component values are different... They do match the original Expandora and they aren't significantly different, but enough to suggest the schematic might be a copy/paste job rather than a trace of an actual V1 Kilt.
 
while the world is still an uncertain place, I'm glad I am young enough that some things are before my memory and experience.
The Miners strike, Margret Thatcher, National Service, The phase where brown guitars were cool, the Cold War and the threat of mutually assured destruction, and now I can add bands that dressed like that to the list.
 
It was hair metal night but the name “butt rock” some how got associated with it and the name stuck.

I’m sorry, but rock night? We used to Cruz and blast Stryper. Killer guitar player, don’t care for the Christian part of it, but those guys rocked back in the 80s.
 
Going slightly back on topic - I tant it great @Robert has featured a few more bass players favourite pedals recently? Anyone got a 3leaf octavbre to loan him? The older one as the new one sounds a bit meh on a soundclip I heard (plus cult unavailable out of production stuff is the way)
 
Ahh, I figured the uniform was a denim west and no pants 🤷‍♂️

That's the sort of attitude towards hair-metal that really chaps my ass...

ah back on topic! Yes.

+1 to LukeFRC's post above.

An Octavbre would be a great one to spelunk for both bass players and guitarists on the forum. Maybe even good for the progressive glockenspiel players.
 
Butt rock for hair metal was also a thing in Salt Lake City.
In Vancouver, it was "cock rock" for obvious reasons. The Canadian scene: Kick Axe (hey Whalley!), Triumph, Helix, Anvil, April Wine, maybe throw some Rush, Loverboy, Chilliwack, and Honeymoon Suite in there.

Re: Stryper: To Hell With the Devil was not a bad one, very LA, but still properly metal for a pouty and be-rouged Christian foursome. And they did really work their theme pretty well (stripes).

Just to stay on topic, howzabout that Great Eastern XO Variable Crossover pedal, now? I want to try the Royal Blood thing.
