Intro:
This is a 1:1 version of the Lone Wolf Audio Left Hand Wrath. Which is a tweakable Boss HM2.

Build:
This was a pretty easy build. Only hacks where that I ran out of B10K pots so I used B1M pots with a 10k resistor across lug 1 and 3 which now makes it B10K pot. Also didn't have a 1.5uF cap so I combined a 1uF+.47uF in parallel to get pretty close. All in all a straightforward build.

Sound:
I think I say this every build report but I was very surprised how good this sounds with some tweaking. Adding a little more bass or mids can really add to overall tone. It's still a loud and gnarly HM2 but it seems to take well to some EQ tweaks.

This is my favorite HM2 variant so far. It has really piqued my interest on some of the other variants out there. But for now this is my go to HM2.

Good question. The only version I know of with the rotary switch is the "deluxe" version. A "10 position midrange inductor"

Ahhh, gotcha. I didn't know there was a version without the rotary, nor did I realize the one I had was "deluxe". :ROFLMAO:

It's actually capacitors incorrectly hooked up to a rotary switch.

I suspect the intended goal was for the values to increase as you turn the rotary, but because of how it's wired the values randomly jump all over the place and are duplicated in several positions.
