Non-Bonamassa FET driver

I must have missed this - thought it was only a signature pedal :

Just the Bonamassa one at the mo. Jeorge Tripps and James Santiago are very good friends. I'm sure there will be a non sig version at some point but I doubt it will look like this.

I get what you're saying. Maybe I should have explained it better. The one you see in the video is just a prototype. Tripps (who designs all the MXR stuff now and also of Way Huge fame) always sends stuff to James Santiago (of Voodoo Lab fame and the awesome player in the video) to check out. I doubt the non sig version (if there ever is one) will have the cosmetic appearance of that one. Does that make sense or am I still waffling?

BTW, I hope they do release one and it looks like that.

Ah yes sorry I getcha.

Yeah that was the prototype people were hyped about at TGP a while back. Then it came out uglier, joe bonamassa branded and more expensive than everyone hoped.

Guess what I just got! It is the JB one but my oh my. In my opinion, THE best od/ dist is the Radial Tonebone. This may just take it's place. First impressions are that it's utterly incredible.

I was gassing after this for a while before it came out, planned to get one asap and then I saw the price... After watching the Pro Guitar Shop demo I'm beginning to think I may have to find the money. 

Though I'd definitely love it if MXR came out with a regular production one for less ££.

I'm impatient! It really is very good indeed. Got 2 gigs on tomorrow so gonna give it a whirl and if it doesn't work out then I'll send it back. So far so good though.

I really didnt like the fet driver, for the price of it there are a huge amount of far superior pedals. I found it quite tinny an cheap sounding, its just a bit flat.

I'm waiting for mine. The Jb store had 20% off during black friday.

I keep wondering if it's a clone of the dod mosfet od thing.
