burno70 Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Never heard of them but it does look the biz, presumably a Wooly Mammoth clone, but for that price, you'd have to wonder what was under the hood. Then again, for that price it maybe worth a punt? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibob Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 It just looks like a Wooly Mammoth Clone, lots of them about. Nice graphics and LED use though. If it's a direct clone, they sound huge on bass. Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Exactly what I thought about the pedal on which this one is obviously based... Having built a mastotron clone I can tell you there's not much to these pedals. Nice variation on a theme with this one though! Edited June 24, 2013 by Bigwan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] The mastotron is just a wooly mammoth with the extra input impedance control to help it play nice with active basses and other pedals - I left out the 3 position switch too though. Build a wooly mammoth and add the control is what I did (built it on stripboard but have yet to put it in an enclosure - planning to put it in a box with the guts of a chord oc2 clone and a diy filter pedal). Pedalparts.co.uk do a mammoth clone kit. In answer to your original question it sounds filthy! Edited July 1, 2013 by Bigwan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigcapener Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Sweeet! Thanks for that. I shall have to get on it when the money comes rolling in...whenever that may be [size=4] [/size] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mexicola Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Ive been watching these on Ebay for a few months now. He usually changes the colour of the LEDs with every build. Seem to go for anything between £75 and £95. Hopefully they sound as good as they look! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
