carrotosaurus:
What about the Swollen Pickle?
Ballard:
Tube elitists, go play a Tech 21 Trademark 60 or 120 and then get back to me.
(What I'm trying to say is, solid-state amps suck because usually they're the cheaper, lower-quality alternative and are not made as well for that reason. If you try and make a great solid-state amp, you very well can.)
Not to say that I don't love tube.
imapiratearg:
Where can I find one of those Swollen Pickle pedals?
carrotosaurus:
The Way Huge Swollen Pickle has been out of production for years now, but apparently it's almost like one of the old Sovtek Big Muffs with a hell of a better sound. They go for about $2,000 whenever they kick up on ebay.
Anyway, you can build your own... it's what I'm planning on doing. You gotta get the Large Beaver kit from BYOC, plus the mod pack to pickle your beaver...

Also, sometimes prebuilt pickle clone pedals show up on ebay or things like that... but it's really a legendary tone.
Patrick:
Okay with names like "Swollen Pickle," "Big Muff" and "Large Beaver," I REFUSE to believe that any of those names were coincidental, therefore losing half of their amusement value.
