A'ight, I'm in. I've been loving Richard's pedals since my first PNP, a 2-knob 2xGe, summer of '06. Within a month or so, I ordered the NPN w/ 2x BC108s.

I let both of these go with plans to get a 2 Headed Monster, but before I could order one I found a killer deal on this one on the classifieds:

I like using the 2 different style of knobs to represent NPN/PNP. It's a helluva' pedal & different from my first 2. Both sides are hybrid on this one & they both probably sound a little "better" but also seem to have a little less of their own personality. Really hard for me to judge the PNP as my 1st one didn't have the external bias pot. . .

Anyhow, I'm going back & forth on letting this one go for yet another try at Monsterpiece perfection. Maybe the answer is just to pick up a 2nd 2 Headed Monsterpiece. . . freak.gifidea.giffreak.gifidea.gif

I love that pedal! Do you have a Box Of Rock? The Classic Monsterpiece stacked with the BOR is one of the best combos I've ever heardlove.gif

even less than that! cool.gif

Prices are $95.00 for a single pedal, $160.00 for a 2 Headed Monster, and $240.00 for a 3 Headed Monster.

I hear a price rise might be coming soon though, so get one in now!

I got a PNP and a NPN, awesome stuff. To this day, the best tone I've ever had live was when I was using my Mesa DC-5 w/ my friends Mesa 4x12 on the rhythm channel with Silver Kiss > PNP > DD-20. When I stepped on the Silver Kiss and PNP together it was just sonic bliss.

Here's my latest work of art, I mean Monsterpeice:

It's a Tonebender MKII (MK1.5, really). I also have an AD2000 and an NPN. Maybe I need a PNP also. This is THE MKII clone to have as I've had a couple of Soulbenders and a BYOC and this thing blows them away.

I think I need one of these.


Are 2 of those sharing a 9v or is the hole thing 18v?

Two of those are sharing a 9 volt. Depends on the circuit, really... on the multi headed Monsterpieces, circuits that are of the same polarity are wired to run off of the same battery / adapter jack.
