^ Thanks for posting that, Davey! Nice piece by Christian - well researched and written. And giving due praise to Alan Parker - one of my all-time favourite players - is never a bad thing.

Thanks man :tu: I love the story of the Tone Bender and its awesome that we are here as the latest incarnation is going on. I wonder if in 50 years time our kids kids are looking back on this and obsessing about it :party:

Since he was mentioned, I had heard that Justin Hayward actually used a Marshall 2021 Reverb/Fuzz unit. Does anyone know what the circuit was in that thing? It only had one knob for the fuzz section.

Is it not the Marshall build of the Supafuzz?
