Not too bad, quite reasonable actually, I expected far worse. :hihi:

Whatever the whatevs, when you get one of these MKI's you own a Sola Sound MKI Tone Bender. :party:

They do look great. By the demoes they sound great too!
Best fuzz builders in the world building these bad boys so hey... quality is expected! And people will buy what they’ll buy won’t they. My mates never understood why I “wasted” money on guitar stuff. But while they were pissing there’s up the wall I’d always manage to recover some of that money if needed.
These things will always have a value. And regarded as original or a reissue they’re still “Sola” branded which is fuckin cool!

^ is that a Sola or an EE?

I’ve just read through this whole thread again, it was such a buzz when these were announced and it’s great how this thread captures the excitement of it all

^I didnt know Steve used the RCAs for the Sola Sound builds. His 5 EEs builds with them used either Iskra or Ashcroft caps. Looks and sounds killer I’m sure :freakout:

My ol’ RCA EE for good measure :cheers:
