The LOTHAR, is what I call, the exploding over drive effect. Very close cousin to a fuzz, but no Germanium or Silicon transistors. It cleans up to a nasty boost when you pull the gain all the way back. Anyhoo...it's certainly not for everybody, or for every song, but it's going on my board to use to punch up leads and single note phrases. You can contact me at gearmanndude@hotmail.com if ya want one. Current wait time is gonna be a couple of weeks, only because I gotta wait for parts...after that, it will be the typical 48 hour wait-time. $107 USA ... $130 International. The one in the video is just the prototype...haven't quite decided on the logo design yet...but I'm thinkin!!!!!
