These 20 pedals represent the very last of our MKIV enclosure stock. There will be more but
considering the current line-up for other projects it'll likely be 2018 before they make themselves known.

We're in the process of reconditioning the the case tool to make some 3 knob cases - Power Boosts Overdrivers Yellow Hybrids plus a few new things going on - so there will be more MK Ivs at some point - unless we run out of colours !!!!

So . . . . now what ?
Different but the same. :shrug:

I'd buy a remake of this vintage silver/all white lettering Sola Sound Tone Bender MkIV in a heartbeat! :love:

^ Yeah, I've got one of the White Devil Mk IVs with green jacket OC82Ds and it rips. Really great choice for this circuit.

Sure someone will say something official soon . . . . . . . .

Basically I needed something new to take to this show in Birmingham so I snuck the first few up there

It was a bit of a waste of time as usually a bunch kids would come up to the stand and look at the pedals confused and ask what they were about and I'd say something like . . .

My Dad and my Uncle had a company called Sola Sound - they sold the first British Fuzz pedals

Then they'd sort of look at me as if I was a mad person - then they'd look at Simon from 11publishing and I'd explain about 'level and attack'

Then I'd show them the pic of Jimmy Pages reciept - then tried to explain that they were looking at a page out of Dick Denneys original circuit book

Then they'd take a selfie with me and bugger off - still thinking i wasn't telling the truth

Dave will explain everything soon Im sure - all I'll say for now is , its a very beautiful looking and sounding thing !

When the notification that Philip had posted in this thread came through, I thought maybe there was the chance of a demo...
