I think TJ might go for the Timberlake endorsed 'Metro'  i think he's more for the single channel, 16 ohm "OHMO" Because when you're full-tilt teabagging, sometimes 15 ohmos are not enough ;D |

The RC Booster does this perfectly. Care to elaborate? |

The RC Booster does just that w/o altering the amps tone unless you want it to via the treble and bass knobs. That was exactly the kind of pedal I was looking for and after trying a few the RC Booster was dead on what I wanted. |

why would scott try to develop a pedal when he can sell you an amp? simple economics ;D (all above points are valid also) To be fair, simple economics also dictate that many people whom you haven't managed to sell a $1900 amp to may be willing to throw a few hundred on a little slice of tone. Isn't this what Mesa tried with the V-Twin thing?  Andrea's idea doesn't seem that crazy to me. *shrug* |

DD may be talking about the Xotic RC boost, they also make an AC boot and a BB preamp... good stuff Yep. They are a little pricey but you can snag one used like I did for a reasonble price. The RC Boost seems like the best of the three for the Splawn IMO. Awesome little pedal. |

I did not imagine to open a discussion with so much replies...
Actually my idea born from reading a previous topic about which is the best overdrive pedal to couple to Splawn amps. There where such a lot of replies and anyone sweared about his pedal, some custom made, some limited editions, some unknown builder.... I personally can't try any pedal on the market and I am very happy with my Splawn sound, it would be nice to have a pedal to refer, as someone mentioned, a pedal or a couple of pedals Mr Splawn swears about. I am personally confident with Scott advice when we are talking about guitar sound, I think anyone who tried a Splawn amp is. That's why I think would a nice idea to have Splawn pedals, and maybe a good marketing idea. Fuchs, TopHat, Burriss, Divided by 13 are all developing overdrive pedals.
Thanks a lot for your interest, hope I can come for a future Spalwn Convention, Andrea.

Thanks a lot for your interest, hope I can come for a future Spalwn Convention, Andrea. Well you are talking about two different things here- a preamp type pedal that will give clean amps a Splawn type of sound, and a boost pedal that would work well with Splawn amps. I guess a simple solution to the later one would be to call Scott and ask him what his favorite boost pedal to go with his amps. |

Who knows how Scott's business will evolve.....If he was simply after money, or the "economical" solutions, he would be sub-contracting some work out........In which case the quality would probably suffer a bit.
My vote would be for him to focus his energy on.......what was it?......The Eliminator?
A midi amp with Ch.1 being clean, Ch.2 being QR and Ch.3 being Nitro. But whatever the voicing of the channels may be, I just want a Splawn with midi !!

some of you guys are confusing "economics" - like scott's not going to do something to LOSE money, with the term "economical" - like him using cheap parts/outsourcing
scott's process is geared up for building AMPS
