It reminds me of a line Belew sings on a recent Crimso record, "Just because you can, doesn't mean you should".
Was the 2N4061 a special xistor? Or was it as run of the mill as this pedal looks from the outside?
I love the fawning over Blackmore! Christ what a self absorbed wanker he was back then. The only recording
I could tolerate a short intervals was Made In Japan. The man's tone was like, "feh...". :roll:
