Four new projects, including three brand new traces
Today, four new PCBs are available, including three brand new traces: the Xotic Soul Driven, SoloDallas Storm and Seymour Duncan Pickup Booster. Each of them also has a tracing journal with background info, tracing photos and schematic if you like that sort of thing.
Thulcandra – Xotic Soul Driven
A mid-gain overdrive with three different tone controls to fine-tune the character. Developed in collaboration with Allen Hinds as a signature effect.

Ares – Echoplex EP-3 Preamp
A pedal adaptation of the preamp section of the EP-3 Echoplex tape echo unit. It captures the sound of the EP-3 in bypass mode, favored by many guitarists for it “sweetening” effect on the tone.
