...and the Burr Brown op amp is a real thing. I've heard BB equiped DACs in a monitoring environment and they certainly have a sound...very smooth and clean. Also have/had (on permanent loan) the T-Rex Replica (V1) clone of the TC Electronics black delay box that has BB ops and it sounds waaayy nice...a soft sort of clean, especially on the 'brown' (tape sim) setting.
I saw that the other day. I couldn't believe it was gooped! Also, a nice mention of kiwi ingenuity there... the Pepers Pedals product!

Gooped to slow down people figuring out it was just a timmy with a different EQ control ;-)

Doesn't everything seem to be a tweaked variant of either a Screamer, Breaker or Timmy these days...tweakers and goopers, man, tweakers and goopers :wink:

:lol: but lets not forget the Hotcake, the Klons and the FET based ODs! I think that pretty much covers it all, everything else is a variation on a theme really....

That guy from the Kinks (Ray Davies I think) had the best idea for distortion - slash the speakers - no batteries or goop required! And no tone suck.

There's only a (very) limited number of ways you can make gain and shape tone in a pedal and there's very little new under the sun in the analog pedal world, as no matter what you're designing it's probably been done somewhere.

The best OD pedal I've found for my Princeton is the Nobels ODR. Love it.
Only took 2 minutes this morning to get exactly the same sound out of the Timmy.
