    @glennw3909 Před 2 lety

    Hi Rhett! Two years later…re-watching this video, and being an owner, I can say it is very satisfying to play and is a staple on my board. It stacks so well with the LightSpeed. If the tremolo could be operated independently, that will make it so much more flexible, but no deal breaker. Thanks to you & Mythos Pedals for a superb stomp box! Cheers!

    @preacherjohn9986 Před 4 lety

    Great vid Rhett, I have an old Gibson Falcon GA19RVT I found last summer that looked like it was sitting in someones backyard for 15 or so years not working. The volume knob was frozen and broken off even with the top faceplate, and the speaker was changed out to who knows what (no codes). The year codes on all the pots we're from 1963. I went thru this amp and replaced all the bad and out of spec parts, made a new back door for it that was missing, and replaced the spkr with an Eminence Texas Heat I had laying around. I cleaned up the cabinet, and sanded all the rust off of the outside of the reverb tank, and replaced the output tubes, and I tell you, this thing has the best blues sound of all the tube amps I own. It's became my favorite player too. I guess you might call it my "go-to" amp now. Your new Lark pedal sounds a lot like this amp - Kudo's to you for bringing this to players attention. There's not many of these old Gibby's around, at least where someone could afford it; I found my on market place by chance, and the person I bought it from discovered it at an auction. It'd be nice if you had a give-away of a couple of these pedals on your channel like you did that Tele. I'm sure you would have a big repsonse.

    That is such an awesome pedal man. I saw the Anderton's video on it yesterday and was pumped by how good it sounds no matter what setting it's on. This is the kind of pedal I think a lot of artists wish they have but don't - one that gives them the feel of their favorite amp but not as "restrictive" as like a Kemper profile. It really lets you "expand" the sound to make it very personal.

    Not sure how the lark is setup but it reminded me of that vibe for sure. Super rad.

    Congrats! I love this kind of pedal that uses transistors in a way that recreates the engineering in a tube amp. I first found out about the Catalinbread Formula 55 which uses J FETs to emulate a Fender Tweed Deluxe, and then The Supro Drive, which even uses an output transformer for attaining magnetic saturation. I'd like to see more MOSFET pedals Like the Blackstone OD as well.This great Skylark pedal is a wonderful addition! look forward to demos.

I'm putting the finishing touches to my version of a tube-screamer, scratch built, with options for the soft clipping diodes and an optional hard clipping stage with old germanium transistors connected as diodes. It sounds amazing, and taking it from the schematic to a pedal that is actually usable is such a buzz. I'll get around to designing my own circuits from scratch too, but I'm hooked!
