    @ Book effects Great to see an Aussie getting in on the Valve-based pedal act, I've done some building of Valve-based pedals in the past, it can be pretty tricky getting them to sound right, but it can be done, one of the Valve-based pedals I have made is one called a Baja Real Tube Overdrive, it was designed by a bloke who lives in Christchurch new Zealand, I know him personally, he runs an electronics repair shop called Baja Electronics, the Baja Real Tube Overdrive is similar to the BK Butler Tube Driver, but has a simple one-knob tone-control which gives the tone a bit more midrange compared to the Tube Driver's two-knob E.Q. circuit, which gives a somewhat scooped-midrange tone.

    Firstly thanks everyone in here it's great to get some positive feedback and to know we are heading in the right direction!!

    And I will be sure to check Baja out mate sounds very interesting indeed,

    And as for the Keith urban bit I've just completed an alpha overdrive for a chap name David Thompson who plays with the big fella himself!! I can't say enough nice things about Dave he has patiently waited for his pedal for some time due to a lack of on hand parts that I was having which I have recently rectified by starting the business in earnest and pouring some funds into having stock on hand.,, we are currently doing a run of fourteen various units for sale, everything from one though to four valve monsters and are planning on some of these carrying up to four hundred possible sound combinations!!!!! Sounds crazy right? But to be honest I am a little crazy when it comes to these pedals I'm ALWAYS looking for ways to innovate and improve on anything I produce, they will always be in the process if evolution and each in its own way is very unique and quite special, once again thanks everyone and don't be afraid to head to the Facebook bock effects page and give us a shout out on there any questions feel free to ask them!! cheers 🍻🍻🍻

So there always options, I'm currently in the process of recording but it's been a real battle as no sooner have I made then then they're gone to the customer sooo Im actually making a batch of 14 different pedals ranging from one to four valves and with a wide array of colours hardware and sounds If you'd like to have a look on the bock effects page at approx 1:00pm est there will be a HOW TO MAKE YOU SHIT RIG SOUND GOOD USING A SINGLE VALVE FUZZDRIVER!! Which will be a demo of a 1.5 watt danelectro amp powering a 12" peavy viper speaker cab!! We're gunna show that ABSOLUTELY ANY AMP. Can sound great with these pedals solid state , valve , micro ANYTHING you can throw at it!! The pedal does exactly what it should it gives warm valve tones and thick rich overdrive tones all the way regardless if the amp it's played through, I promise you'll be pleased with its performance although in saying that we're also using a very cheap recording system (personus mic into an iPhone!!!! Lol) as I just haven't had time or the products on hand to do professional recording, yes I will get around to it though lol but still I think this simple demo will blow people's socks off when they hear it!
    It's good to see there's others experimenting with their own pedals, keep at it mate it just takes time, I literally spent everyday for two years in my shed getting it all sussed out lol anyway like I said check me out on face book this arvo and let me know what you think BOCK EFFECTS cheers andi

    Andy, while you were on the fb page did you have a listen to the unit on video?

    Yeah I did Gav. It sounded pretty awesome. But my kids started running around trying to kill each other so I told myself I'll go back to listen when things were a bit quieter.
