Members AcheWater Posted April 13, 2008 Members Share Posted April 13, 2008 After hearing the Lovetone Big Cheese and loving it, I went ahead and ordered an OLC chuncky cheese. Should be here in a couple of weeks. Anybody else heard/played/have this pedal? If so what some opinions on it? I'm new to the forum so bare with me if this has been adressed. Thanks.

Phil O'Keefe Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Welcome to the forum. I love my Chunky Cheese. I have a couple of Lovetones, but not a Big Cheese, so I have not done any side by sides with a BC and CC, but it does sound like one to my ears. It's a really versatile fuzz, and I like it a lot. Mark was a pleasure to do business with - I definitely would purchase from him again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TheGareth Posted April 13, 2008 Members Share Posted April 13, 2008 I watched a video on youtube and it doesn't sound like a typical fuzz - in some instances it sounds like a heavy distortion pedal. Is this correct? [YOUTUBE]KXGYeuWKSZs[/YOUTUBE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AcheWater Posted April 13, 2008 Author Members Share Posted April 13, 2008 First, thanks for welcome Phil. I've been reading the forum for awhile, but just haven't really dove in until now. The pedal in the video is the actual Big Cheese. I KNOW it sounds great. i love the diversity it seems to have. I primarily play Rhythm guitar or very textural (sp.) pieces with the band I'm in, so versitility is a big deal to me. I was just wanting to know how good the Chunky Cheese clone was since I ordered it on sort of a whim (the links on the OLC website will not play on my computer for some reason:confused:). Any help with that would be appreciated, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dangerous dan Posted April 13, 2008 Members Share Posted April 13, 2008 I ordered a Chunky Cheese from OLC about 3 weeks ago, hopefully should be here soon. The samples I've heard sound pretty good (especially for the price) so I 'm looking forward to putting it together and testing it out soon.

Members AcheWater Posted April 13, 2008 Author Members Share Posted April 13, 2008 Any way you could post a demo of it when it comes in??:poke: I've already taken the plunge, so it doesn't REALLY matter, but I would love to hear what's on the way.

Members Dolf Posted April 18, 2008 Members Share Posted April 18, 2008 A forumite did a build with a box similar to the original Big Cheese. Thing looks freaking sexy. I needs me one o' dems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SonicVI Posted April 18, 2008 Members Share Posted April 18, 2008 I wonder where he found an enclosure like that... It's a Hammond 1456 series enclosure. I bought it from Allied Electronics but Mouser can get them as well. It's only similar to the Big Cheese in that it's sloped really. I'm using the same one for a Brown Source clone that I'm currently working on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you post some sound? for some reason I cannot get the sound clips on the OLC sight to play on my computer!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rileykill Posted April 18, 2008 Members Share Posted April 18, 2008 This would be a sweet buy IMO if it sounds close to the original Big Cheese. We need some FU posts after you guys get these in the mail and try them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
