Old goofball USSR era fuzz I repaired a while back

I like that Guild Wah, cool.

Here's another couple clunkers from the past. Bigger pedals for bigger tone.

These two were ready to got out the door on a bass gig. Nothing brings a bass to life like a Big Muff ;]

And Mut-tron has a Guild connection, you know.

No, I missed that one.

No, I missed that one.

As I remember it Mike Beigel had the phaser, auto wah and something else all in a big rack sized thingy. Apparently after Al Dronge died the Guild company had zero interest in Mike’s guitar synth unit. After that he decided to found Mutron and split up the effects into individual boxes. I miss the MXR Envelope Filter I owned, sold to buy my D-25 (I see a pattern here...) but I miss it because it didn’t copy the Mutron style of envelope filter. Have no idea how it operates on CMOS chips but there were a few in that circuit. For whatever reason those go for big bucks and I sold mine within 10 minutes of listing it on Reverb if that. Even though someone cut a notch in the enclosure for a battery clip style external power supply it fetched $170. Oh well I almost tripled my money on it.

And of all the Wah pedals I had I think this was the most versatile. There’s a rotary switch that changes a feedback capacitor though for guitar there is really 2 useful settings on the rotary with the others being kinda weird and not very useful.

That was an Aaron Newman project too! As chief engineer of Guild, he was codesigning the synth, and when Leon Tell canceled the amp line, he and Mike formed Mu-tron. They ended up selling it to Arp literally days before Arp declared bankruptcy, so they lost Mu-tron and never got paid a dime...

Cool stuff.

Looks like I'm rediscovering DOD, just bought a 440 Envelope, a Gonkulator Ring Modulator and a Rubberneck Analog Delay w 1.5s and crazy other features, all used on the Verb. My desire for fresh modulation is about to materialize.

It's cool how knick knack sell on eBay and the $$$ is spent the same day, fun.

I kicked all of my old modulation to the curb, but now realizing I miss it. This is a recording from 3 years ago using a couple TC and Digitech Doodads.

Watch for unsteady volume up to the 1m mark, Seagulls make their entrance at 3m something.

I used to have that exact mu-tron back in the day. Not sure whatever happened to it. Probably foolishly sold it with an amp or other pedals.
