sprucebringsteen's Pedalboard

The Sun Lion was truly my bucket list pedal. I saved for years to get one, and it became a routine to check Reverb for them at under market prices. Eventually when I had the funds, I lowballed a guy with a nice high gain RCA, not expecting him to accept, but was terrified to see the pedal in my cart. It soon arrived on my porch at sat there for an hour at 95 degrees, before I got home. I then brought it in, plugged straight in, and was reminded it didn't like the heat. The Beano Boost side was familiar, as I had one before that I considered integral to my sound, especially with a Vox, but the Sun Face still surprises me to this day. The Fuzz side doesn't sound incredibly different from the red Dunlop Fuzz Face when the gain is maxed, but at lower settings with the bias knob, I discovered a new world of low gain fuzz, and great old school 'overdrive' sounds out of a fuzz pedal, and still think I've barely scratched the surface with the volume knob. Eric Johnson 'Violin' tones and early Black Sabbath riffage are all here in spades.
