Speaking of Preamps (SUNN Concert Lead)

[geoffrey]

I'd like to see someone come out with a PCB for the SUNN Concert Lead. Paul Westerberg famously used these during The Replacements early years, so I think it's a build that would appeal to many.

I've scoured the web for such a thing and DeadFx made a PCB and kit available for his ETR (Eat the Rich) Pedal (which is an example of what I'm looking for) a few years back. I reached out to them to see if they happened to have any more PCB's available, but got no response.

Other than that, there's nothing else out there. I'd love to have that early Westerberg sound in a pedal. Hopefully someone will make one here at some point

+1 for that sound!! I've once looked at the schematics for the sunn concert lead, but never quite figured out how the distortion switch worked. Other than that, I suppose the +25/-15v power supply is going to be a bit of a problem.

Yea, we can't be the only ones who'd be all over this. Somehow the dude at DeadFx figured out something regarding the power supply. Maybe @Robert might be interested into looking into this. A boy can dream!
