I think I do too!

Sounds pretty sweet to me.  And I think you could really have some fun with it!
I hope Gilmour got an endorsement fee for those live shots.  ;)
hmm! andy's changing his demos... no talking, wth! heh. <cheer>

well, I was thinking about getting a big muff with tone wicker... but this is very interesting. twice the price is not so nice, though. ;)


(price is bugging me because, well, I'm a frugal sob and... I have a serious case of germino club 40 GAS that I'm trying to deal with. any potential music funds are getting mentally put in that jar right now)
Just wait a month, the schematic will be online, and I can build you one for way less than either of those pedals cost.
heh, sounds like the best idea.
I can just hear the Sheep magic with that pedal.  Many fuzz pedals mush out with humbuckers and this demo was with a LP.  I thought it sounded great.  Word of warning though for DIY.  The trannies are everything in fuzz pedals.  well, not everything, but WOW do they make a huge difference.  I had a BYOC ESV fuzz and wasn't in love with it.  The night I sold it I swapped a couple old germs I had in it and it was a "no way I'd sell this" moment.  But it was too late.  And good germaniums are expensive.

I've never heard of a pedal musting out before...

(And what's all this talk about transexuals???  :o )

Knowing the way Wampler designs and builds, there won't be any germanium transistors in this pedal.
